She said they were good children and she was proud of them. She kissed them and tucked them in bed. She said good night and turned off the light. Tom and Lily fell asleep and dreamed of happy trains. +Tom and Lily are playing with a big box of strings. They like to make loops with the strings and hang them on the wall. They make loops of different colors and sizes. + +"Look, I made a big loop with the red string!" Tom says, showing Lily his loop. + +"That's nice, Tom. I made a small loop with the yellow string. See?" Lily says, holding up her loop. + +They keep making loops and having fun. But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their cat, Max. Max likes to play with strings, too. But he does not make loops. He makes a terrible mess. + +Max jumps on the box of strings and pulls them out. He runs around the room with the strings in his mouth and paws. He breaks some of the loops and drops them on the floor. He scratches the wall and the furniture with the strings. + +"Max, stop!" Tom and Lily shout. "You are making a terrible mess!" + +But Max does not listen. He keeps playing with the strings. He thinks it is fun. + +Tom and Lily are sad and angry. They worked hard to make their loops. They do not like the terrible mess that Max made. They try to catch Max and take the strings away from him. But Max is fast and clever. He runs away from them and hides under the bed. + +Tom and Lily do not know what to do. They look at the terrible mess and the broken loops. They wish Max would be a good cat and not make a terrible mess. +Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big tree with red and green things on it. They were grapes. Lila and Tom wanted to try them. + +They climbed the tree and picked some grapes. They were sweet and juicy. They ate and ate until they were full. They put some grapes in a basket to take home. + +They saw a man walking by. He had a bottle in his hand. It was wine. He made it from grapes. He saw Lila and Tom in the tree. He smiled and said hello. + +He asked them if they liked grapes. They said yes. He asked them if they wanted to try some wine. They said no. They knew wine was not for kids. It was for grown-ups. It could make them wild and silly. + +They thanked the man for asking. They said they liked grapes better. They climbed down the tree and took their basket. They said goodbye to the man and ran to their mom. They gave her some grapes and told her about the man and the wine. She hugged them and said they were good kids. She thanked them for the grapes and said they could have some juice. They were happy and drank their juice. They liked juice better than wine. +Tom and Lily were playing pirates in the garden. They had a big box for a ship, a stick for a sword and a paper hat for a captain. Tom was the captain and Lily was his mate. They sailed to find treasure and fight bad pirates. + +But there was a grumpy cat in the garden. He did not like the noise and the fun. He wanted to sleep in the sun. He saw the paper hat on Tom's head and thought it was a bird. He jumped on the box and tried to catch the hat. + +Tom and Lily were very scared. They saw the cat's sharp teeth and claws. They heard his loud meow. They ran away from the box and hid behind a tree. The cat took the hat and ripped it with his teeth. + +Tom and Lily were sad. They lost their ship and their hat. They did not want to play pirates anymore. They wanted to go inside and have a hug. + +But then they saw something shiny on the ground. It was a hook. It was silver and shiny and had a red ribbon. It looked like a pirate hook. Tom and Lily smiled. They had a new toy. They put the hook on Tom's hand and said "Arrr!" + +They forgot about the cat and the hat. They went back to the box and fixed it with tape. They put on new paper hats and sailed away. They had more fun and more treasure. They were not scared of the grumpy cat. They were brave pirates. +Sam and Mia were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and bridges and castles with the colorful blocks. They also had a toy car that could zoom around the floor and make noises. + +"Look, Mia, I made a big tower!" Sam said, showing his blocks to his sister. "Can I zoom the car through it?" + +"Okay, but be careful," Mia said. "Don't knock it down." + +Sam took the car and zoomed it around the tower. He was having fun, but he wanted to make the car go faster and faster. He zoomed it too hard and crashed into the tower. The blocks fell down with a loud bang. + +"Sam, you ruined it!" Mia cried. "You broke my tower!" + +"I'm sorry, Mia, I didn't mean to," Sam said. "It was an accident." + +Mia was very angry. She grabbed the car from Sam and threw it across the room. The car hit the wall and broke into pieces. + +"Hey, that's not fair!" Sam shouted. "You broke my car!" + +Mia and Sam started to cry. They were both miserable. They had no blocks and no car to play with. + +Mom heard the noise and came into the living room. She saw the mess and the broken toys and the crying children. + +"What happened here?" Mom asked. "Why are you fighting?" + +"Mia broke my car!" Sam said. + +"Sam broke my tower!" Mia said. + +Mom sighed. She picked up the children and hugged them. + +"I'm sorry you're upset, but you can't break each other's toys," Mom said. "That's not nice. You have to share and be gentle." + +Mom helped them pick up the blocks and put them in a box. She said they could get a new car later, but they had to promise to play nicely. + +"Can we still play with the blocks?" Sam asked. + +"Yes, you can, but only if you cooperate and respect each other," Mom said. + +"Okay, Mom, we will," Mia said. + +Sam and Mia nodded. They said they were sorry to each other and hugged. They decided to build a new tower together, and to zoom the car slowly and carefully. They were happy again. +Jill and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. One day, they find a big bowl on the table. It is full of colorful beads. + +"Wow, look at these beads!" Jill says. "They are so pretty. I want to make a necklace with them." + +"Me too!" Tom says. "Let's share them. We can count how many beads we have." + +They start to count the beads. Jill counts one, two, three, four, five. Tom counts one, two, three, four, five, six. + +"Hey, you have more beads than me!" Jill says. "That's not fair. Give me one more bead." + +"No, I don't want to. I need six beads for my necklace. You can have five." Tom says. He holds his beads tight. + +Jill gets angry. She tries to grab a bead from Tom. Tom pulls his hand away. They start to fight over the beads. They pull and push and shout. + +"Stop it, stop it!" Mom says. She comes into the living room. She sees the twins fighting and the beads on the floor. She is not happy. + +"What are you doing?" Mom says. "Why are you fighting over the beads? You have enough beads for both of you. You can be creative and make different things with them. You don't have to make the same necklace." + +Jill and Tom stop fighting. They look at Mom. They feel sorry. + +"Sorry, Mom." Jill says. + +"Sorry, Mom." Tom says. + +Mom smiles. She hugs them. She helps them pick up the beads. + +"Why don't you try to make something else with the beads?" Mom says. "Maybe a bracelet, or a ring, or a keychain. You can use your imagination and have fun." + +Jill and Tom nod. They think of what they can make with the beads. They start to play again. They are happy. They share the beads and the bowl. They are creative. +Lily likes to play with her cards. She has many cards with pictures of animals. She likes to find two cards that match. She says the name of the animal and makes the sound it makes. + +One day, she finds a card with a picture of a fish. She looks for another card with a fish. She sees one on the floor.

They liked to play with their toys in the living room. But today, their mom said they had to sit on their seats and watch a boring show on the TV. She said it was good for them to learn new things. + +Lily and Ben did not want to learn new things. They wanted to have fun. They looked at each other and had an idea. They waited until their mom went to the kitchen. Then they got up from their seats and ran to their toy box. They grabbed as many toys as they could and threw them all over the living room. They laughed and shouted as they made a big mess. + +"Look, we scatter our toys!" Lily said. + +"Yeah, we scatter them everywhere!" Ben said. + +They did not see their mom coming back. She was very angry when she saw the living room. She yelled at Lily and Ben and told them to pick up their toys and go to their room. She said they were naughty and they would not get any dessert. + +Lily and Ben cried and said they were sorry. But it was too late. They had to do what their mom said. They picked up their toys and went to their room. They did not have any fun. They did not have any dessert. They did not learn any new things. They only had a bad day. +Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have a big box of cars and trucks. They share the box. + +One day, they want to play outside. They take the box to the yard. They find a big puddle of water. They think it is fun to splash in the water. + +"Look, Jen, I can make my car go fast in the water!" Tom says. He pushes his car in the puddle. The car makes a splash. + +"Me too, Tom, me too!" Jen says. She pushes her truck in the puddle. The truck makes a bigger splash. + +They laugh and splash. They do not see that the water is not clean. It has gas in it. The gas comes from a can that someone left in the yard. The gas makes the water smell bad. It also makes the cars and trucks soak. + +Soon, the cars and trucks are wet and dirty. They do not look nice. They do not work well. + +"Uh-oh, Tom, look at our cars and trucks!" Jen says. She picks up her truck. It drips and sputters. + +"Oh no, Jen, they are all soak!" Tom says. He picks up his car. It does not move. + +They are sad. They do not know what to do. They want to clean their cars and trucks. They want to make them work again. + +They go to the house. They ask Mom for help. Mom sees their cars and trucks. She sees the gas in the water. She is not happy. + +"Tom, Jen, what did you do?" Mom says. "You should not play with gas. It is not safe. It can hurt you and your toys." + +"We are sorry, Mom, we did not know," Tom and Jen say. "We just wanted to have fun. Can you help us?" + +Mom sighs. She takes the cars and trucks. She puts them in a bucket. She fills the bucket with soap and water. She tells Tom and Jen to scrub the cars and trucks. + +"Maybe this will help," Mom says. "But you have to be careful next time. Do not play with things you do not know. And do not splash in dirty water." + +"Okay, Mom, we will," Tom and Jen say. They scrub the cars and trucks. They hope they will work again. They learn a lesson. They do not play with gas again. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big house with a fence and a garden. Lily says, "Wow, look at that house! It is so big and pretty. I wish I could live there." + +Tom says, "Me too. Maybe the people who live there are very rich. They have a lot of toys and clothes and food. They must be happy." + +They walk closer to the house. They see a boy and a girl in the garden. They are playing with a ball and a doll. Lily and Tom wave to them and say, "Hello, can we play with you?" + +The boy and the girl look at them and say, "No, you can't. This is our garden. You are not welcome here. Go away. You are dirty and poor. We don't like you." + +Lily and Tom feel sad and hurt. They turn around and walk away. They hold each other's hands. They say, "That was not nice. They are mean and rude. They don't know how to share and be kind. We don't want to be like them." + +They go back to the park. They find a bench and sit down. They hug each other and say, "We have each other. We are friends. We are happy. We don't need a big house or a lot of things. We have a home in our hearts." +Ben loves to play football with his dad. He has a red football that he got for his birthday. He likes to kick it hard and watch it fly in the air. He wants to be a football star when he grows up. + +One day, Ben and his dad go to the park to play football. They find a big field with green grass and white lines. Ben sees some other kids playing football too. He wants to join them and make new friends. + +"Can I play with them, dad?" Ben asks. + +"Sure, son. Go ahead and have fun. But be careful and polite, okay?" his dad says. + +Ben runs to the other kids and asks if he can play. They say yes and give him a yellow shirt to wear. They tell him he is on their team. They say they are playing a game and the score is two to two. They need one more goal to win. + +Ben is excited. He wants to help his team win. He waits for his turn to get the ball. He sees one of his teammates pass the ball to him. He runs to catch it. He sees the goal in front of him. He sees the goalkeeper trying to stop him. He kicks the ball with all his might. He strikes the ball with his foot. + +The ball flies in the air. It goes over the goalkeeper's head. It goes into the net. It is a goal! Ben's team wins the game! + +Ben is happy. He jumps and cheers. He feels amazing. He hears his dad clap and shout. He hears the other kids congratulate him. He hears them say he is a football star. + +He runs to his dad and hugs him. He says, "Did you see that, dad? I scored a goal! I won the game!" + +His dad smiles and says, "I saw that, son. You did great. You are amazing. I am proud of you." +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. + +Tom says, "I go first. I am faster than you." Sam says, "No, I go first. I am stronger than you." They push and pull each other. They are not nice. Their moms are not happy. + +Tom says, "Let me tell you a joke. It is funny." Sam says, "Okay, tell me." Tom says, "Why did the chicken cross the road?" Sam says, "I don't know. Why?" Tom says, "To get to the other slide!" He laughs. He runs to the slide. He does not wait for Sam. + +Sam is mad. He does not think the joke is funny. He thinks the joke is mean. He runs after Tom. He wants to catch him. He wants to make him say sorry. + +But Tom is too fast. He goes on the slide. He slides down. He is happy. He does not see the big hole in the slide. The hole is open. Tom falls through the hole. He hurts himself. He cries. Sam sees him. He is scared. He does not want to go on the slide. He runs to his mom. He says, "Mom, Tom is hurt. He fell through the hole. The slide is bad. The joke is bad. I am sorry." His mom hugs him. She says, "It's okay, Sam. You are a good friend. Let's go help Tom." They go to Tom. Tom is sad. He says, "I am sorry, Sam. I was not a good friend. I was mean. The joke was mean. The slide was mean. Can we still be friends?" Sam says, "Yes, Tom. We can still be friends. But no more jokes. And no more slides. Let's play with cars and balls." They hug. They are friends again. But they are not happy. They are hurt. The slide is bad. The end. +Lily liked to play in the garden with her ball. She could kick it, throw it, and bounce it. She had a lot of fun with her ball. But there was one thing she could not do. She could not move the gate. The gate was big and heavy and locked. It was at the end of the garden, and it led to the street. Lily's mom always told her not to go near the gate, because it was dangerous. + +One day, Lily saw something unusual behind the gate. It was a shiny red bike. It had two wheels, a bell, and a basket. Lily wanted to see the bike up close. She wondered who it belonged to. She thought it looked like a lot of fun. She forgot what her mom said, and she ran to the gate. She tried to move it, but it was still too big and heavy and locked. She was sad. + +Then, she had an idea. She went back to get her ball. She threw it over the gate, hoping it would land near the bike. She thought maybe she could climb over the gate and get her ball and the bike. She threw the ball as hard as she could. But she threw it too hard. The ball flew over the gate, over the bike, and over the street. It hit a car that was driving by. The car made a loud noise and stopped. The driver got out and looked angry. He saw Lily and the gate and the bike. He shouted at her. He said the bike was his, and the ball had scratched his car. He said he would tell her mom. + +Lily was scared. She wished she had not thrown her ball. She wished she had not gone near the gate. She wished she had listened to her mom. She ran back to the house and hid under her bed. She hoped the driver would not find her. She hoped her mom would not be mad at her. She learned a lesson. She learned that the gate was there for a reason. She learned that some things are better left alone. She learned that unusual things are not always fun. +Lila and Ben are friends who like to play with their toys. They have a lot of toys, but their favorite is a big goat that can make noises and move its head. They like to pretend that the goat is their pet and take it for walks and feed it grass. + +One day, they have a race with the goat. They each hold one of its horns and run as fast as they can. They are very competitive and want to win. They run and run until they reach the end of the yard. But then, they hear a loud snap. The goat's horn breaks off and falls to the ground. The goat stops making noises and moving its head. + +Lila and Ben are very sad. They love their goat and do not want it to be broken. They try to put the horn back on, but it does not work. They do not know what to do. They start to cry. + +Then, they see Lila's mom coming out of the house. She sees the broken goat and the crying children. She smiles and says, "Don't worry, I can help. I know how to repair the goat. I have some glue and some tape. Come with me and we will fix it together." + +Lila and Ben are happy. They follow Lila's mom to the house. They watch as she glues and tapes the horn back on the goat. She tests the goat and it makes noises and moves its head again. She gives the goat back to Lila and Ben and says, "There you go. Your goat is good as new. But be careful next time. Don't pull its horns too hard." + +Lila and Ben hug their goat and thank Lila's mom. They promise to be gentle with their goat. They decide to play something else with their goat. They do not want to race anymore. They want to cuddle and pet their goat. They are still friends and still love their goat. +Sara and Ben liked to play on the shore. They liked to make sand castles and look for shells. One day, they saw a big boat on the water. It looked shiny and fun. + +"Let's go see the boat!" Ben said. He ran to the water and waved his arms. Sara followed him. They did not see their mom and dad, who were sitting on a blanket. + +The boat came closer and closer. Sara and Ben were happy. They thought the boat would stop and let them on. But the boat did not stop. It was a bad boat. It had bad people on it. + +The bad people saw Sara and Ben. They had guns and ropes. They wanted to take Sara and Ben away. They shouted and laughed. Sara and Ben were scared. They tried to run back to the shore, but it was too late. + +The bad people grabbed Sara and Ben and threw them on the boat. They tied them up and put them in a dark room. Sara and Ben cried and cried. They wanted their mom and dad. They wanted to go home. But no one heard them. No one recognized them. They were gone. +Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair, a pink dress and a shiny crown. Lily took Anna everywhere she went. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and Anna. She saw a big slide and wanted to go on it. She left Anna on a bench and ran to the slide. She had fun sliding down and up again. + +But when she came back to the bench, Anna was gone. Lily felt sad and scared. She looked around and saw a boy holding Anna. He had taken her doll. + +"Hey, that's my doll!" Lily shouted. She ran to the boy and tried to grab Anna. The boy pulled Anna away and said, "No, it's mine now. You can have this one." He threw a dirty, old doll at Lily. The doll had no hair, a torn dress and a missing eye. It was very ugly. + +Lily did not want the ugly doll. She wanted Anna back. She cried and said, "That's not fair. You can't replace my doll with that one. Give me Anna back. She is my best friend." + +The boy laughed and said, "Too bad. I like Anna better. She is pretty and has a crown. This doll is funny. It has no eye and looks silly. You can keep it. It has less weight, so it is easier to carry." + +Lily felt angry and hurt. She did not think the boy was nice. She did not think the doll was funny. She thought the doll was sad and lonely. She wanted to help the doll, but she also wanted Anna back. + +She looked at her mom and asked for help. Her mom saw what was happening and came to Lily. She talked to the boy and his mom. She explained that Anna was Lily's doll and that he had to give it back. She also said that he should not replace other people's things with his own. She said that was rude and wrong. + +The boy's mom agreed and made him apologize to Lily. He gave Anna back to Lily and took the ugly doll. Lily hugged Anna and thanked her mom. She was happy to have her doll back. + +She looked at the ugly doll and felt sorry for it. She wondered if it had a name and a home. She decided to be kind and share. She said to the boy, "You can play with this doll if you want. Maybe you can make it a new dress and a new eye. Maybe you can be its friend." + +The boy looked surprised and said, "Really? You don't mind?" He took the ugly doll and looked at it. He said, "Maybe I can. Maybe it is not so funny. Maybe it is just different. Thank you for letting me play with it." + +Lily smiled and said, "You're welcome. Maybe we can play together sometime. But you have to ask first, okay?" + +The boy nodded and said, "Okay. I'm sorry for taking your doll. I won't do it again." + +Lily said, "That's okay. I forgive you. What's your name?" + +The boy said, "I'm Ben. What's yours?" + +Lily said, "I'm Lily. And this is Anna." + +Ben said, "Hi, Lily. Hi, Anna. Nice to meet you." + +Lily said, "Nice to meet you too, Ben. Do you want to go on the slide with me?" + +Ben said, "Sure. That sounds fun. Let's go." + +They took their dolls and ran to the slide. They had fun sliding down and up again. They became friends. +Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They had fun. + +One day, Lily saw a shiny thing on the ground. It was steel. It was hard and cold and heavy. Lily liked it. She picked it up and put it in her pocket. + +"Look, Tom, I found steel!" Lily said. "It is pretty. I am rich now." + +Tom looked at the steel. He wanted it too. He felt angry. He said, "No, Lily, that is mine. I saw it first. Give it to me." + +Lily said, "No, Tom, it is mine. I found it. Go away." + +Tom and Lily fought. They pulled and pushed and yelled. They hurt each other. They did not play anymore. + +Lily and Tom went home. They were sad. They missed each other. But they did not say sorry. They did not share. They kept the steel. But the steel did not make them happy. It made them lonely. It was a bad day. +Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big, colorful balloon in the sky. It was red and yellow and blue and green. They wanted to catch it. + +"Let's run after it!" Sam said. + +"OK!" Lily said. + +They ran and ran, but the balloon was too fast. They crossed the street without looking. A car was coming. It honked loudly. + +"Watch out!" a voice shouted. + +Lily and Sam stopped. They saw a man in a white coat. He had wings and a halo. He was an angel. + +"Are you OK?" the angel asked. + +"Yes, thank you," Lily and Sam said. + +The angel smiled. He said, "You are very lucky. I was here to save you. You should always be careful when you cross the street. You should always hold hands and look both ways. Do you understand?" + +"Yes, we understand," Lily and Sam said. + +The angel nodded. He said, "Good. Now, I have to go. But I have a gift for you. Here, take this balloon. It is a magic balloon. It will make you happy and kind." + +He gave them the colorful balloon. It was warm and soft. Lily and Sam thanked him. They hugged him. + +"Bye, angel," they said. + +"Bye, children," the angel said. He flew away. + +Lily and Sam looked at each other. They smiled. They held hands. They looked both ways. They crossed the street. + +They went back to the park. They played with the balloon. They shared it with other children. They were happy and kind. + +They said, "We want to be like the angel. We want to help others. We want to be friends forever." + +They said, "When we grow up, we will marry each other. We will have a colorful wedding. We will invite the angel. He will be happy for us." + +The end. + +Moral value: The story teaches the children to be careful, to be grateful, to be generous, and to be loving. +Sam and Lily were very thirsty. They had been walking in the hot sand for a long time. They wanted to find water and shade. They saw some green trees and a blue pond far away. They hoped it was an oasis. + +"Look, Lily, an oasis!" Sam said. "Maybe we can drink and rest there." + +"Let's go, Sam, I'm so tired and thirsty," Lily said. They ran towards the oasis. + +But when they got there, they saw a big lion lying under a tree. The lion was lazy and sleepy. He did not see Sam and Lily. They were scared of the lion. They did not want to wake him up. + +"Shh, Lily, there's a lion," Sam whispered. "We have to be very quiet and careful. Maybe we can finish our water from our bottles and then sneak away." + +"OK, Sam, but I'm still thirsty," Lily whispered. They drank their water slowly and quietly. Then they looked for a way to leave the oasis without disturbing the lion. + +They saw a small path behind some bushes. They crawled on their hands and knees. They hoped the lion would not hear them or smell them. They reached the end of the path and saw another part of the desert. They were happy to escape the lion. + +"Phew, we made it, Lily," Sam said. "That was scary. But we finished our water. Now we have to find more." + +"Maybe we can find another oasis, Sam," Lily said. "But without a lion." + +They held hands and walked on. They looked for another oasis. They hoped it would be safe and nice. +Sara and Ben are playing on the beach. They make a big sand castle with a flag and a moat. They are very happy and proud of their work. + +Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. They look at the water and see a big boat. The boat is coming too close to the shore. It makes big waves that splash the sand and the castle. + +"Look out!" Sara shouts to Ben. "The waves will break our castle!" + +Ben tries to run to the castle and save it, but he is too late. A big wave hits him and knocks him down. He feels the water in his mouth and nose. He is scared and helpless. + +Sara sees Ben in trouble. She runs to him and grabs his hand. She pulls him out of the water and hugs him. She speaks to him softly. + +"Are you okay, Ben? Don't worry, I'm here. The boat is gone now. The waves are smaller." + +Ben coughs and nods. He is glad that Sara is with him. He speaks to her gratefully. + +"Thank you, Sara. You are very brave and kind. You saved me and our castle." + +Sara smiles and points to the sand. The castle is still there, a little wet but not broken. The flag is still waving in the wind. + +"Look, Ben. Our castle is okay. We can play some more. Do you want to?" + +Ben smiles and nods. He holds Sara's hand and they walk to the castle. They are happy and proud again. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to fly her kite in the park. She would run and run until her kite was high up in the sky. One day, Lily's kite got stuck in a tree. She tried to get it down, but it was too high. + +Just then, a boy named Max came by. "What's wrong?" he asked. "My kite is hidden in the tree," Lily said sadly. Max climbed up the tree and got the kite down. "Wow, I admire your bravery," Lily said. "Thank you," Max replied. They played together for a while and flew their kites in the sky. It was a fun day at the park. +Once upon a time, there was a lazy cat. The cat liked to sleep all day and night. One day, the cat's friend called on the telephone. The friend wanted the cat to come and play outside. + +The cat didn't want to go outside because it was too lazy. But the friend insisted that the cat come and play. The cat thought about it for a moment and decided to go outside and play with the friend. + +They played together for a long time and had lots of fun. After playing, the cat felt happy and not so lazy anymore. From that day on, the cat and the friend played together every day.

That spoon is too small to do big jobs." Liz looked sad and her mum continued: "Sometimes you can be a bit ignorant". Liz thought about this for some time and then she realized that her mum was right. + +So they both looked at each other and smiled. Liz understood the lesson - to use the right tool for the right job.

The princess was glad that she went on her journey, but she also knew that life was cool in her castle. + +The moral of this story is that life is cool where ever you are - as long as you are happy where you are.

Anna and Ben say, as they look at their mom with big eyes. + +"Playing with oil? That is not a good idea, kids! Oil is not for playing, it is for the car. It is dirty and dangerous. You could slip and hurt yourself. And look at the mess you made! You need to clean it up right now!" their mom says, as she takes the bottle of oil and the cars away. + +Anna and Ben feel sorry. They did not mean to make mom angry. They did not know that oil was not for playing. They help mom clean the floor and their clothes. They say sorry to mom and hug her. + +Mom forgives them and hugs them back. She tells them that they can play with their cars, but not with oil. She gives them some water and soap to wash their cars.

She loved her mom and her cereal. +Lily was an intelligent girl who liked to count everything. She counted her fingers, her toes, her dolls, and her books.

It makes me feel awake." + +Sara smiles and says, "That's OK, Tom. We can like different things. That's what makes us friends. We can share our apples and enjoy them together."

She did not like Max's words. She liked her white things. She wanted to explain why they were perfect, but she did not know how. She said, "No, you are wrong. White is the best color. It can be anything you want. It can be soft, or bright, or cold, or warm. It can make other colors shine. It can hide secrets. It can be magic." + +Max did not understand. He thought Lily was silly. He said, "No, white is not a color. It is nothing. It is empty. It is dull. It can't do anything. It can't be magic." + +Lily was very upset. She did not want to play with Max anymore.

I love you." + +Mom smiled and hugged him back. She said, "I love you too, Ben. And I love you, Lily. Thank you for trying to make a cake for me. That was very sweet of you. But next time, let me help you, okay?" + +Lily and Ben agreed. They said, "Okay, Mom. We love you too." + +Mom said, "Now, let's see if we can still bake the cake. It might be a bit lumpy, but it will be delicious. Because it's made with love." + +Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy. They helped Mom stir the cake mix again. They put it in the oven and waited for it to bake. They were excited to eat the cake. They knew it was unique. It was their cake. +Lily likes to rock on her pink horse. She rocks back and forth, back and forth, and makes horse noises. She pretends she is riding in the park with her friends. She has a lot of fun. + +But then she hears her mom call her name. "Lily, time for your shower!" Mom says. Lily does not like showers. She likes to stay dirty and play. She says "No, no, no!" and rocks faster on her horse. + +Mom comes into her room and smiles. She says "Lily, you have to take a shower. You are very dirty and smelly. You will feel better after a shower. And look, I have a surprise for you!" She shows Lily a pink bottle. "This is your new shower gel. It smells like strawberries and makes bubbles. Do you want to try it?" + +Lily stops rocking and looks at the bottle. She likes strawberries and bubbles. She thinks maybe showers are not so bad. She says "Okay, mom. I will take a shower. But can I bring my horse?" Mom nods and says "Sure, you can bring your horse. He can have a shower too. Come on, let's go." She takes Lily's hand and they go to the bathroom. + +Lily and her horse have a shower. They use the pink shower gel and make a lot of bubbles. They smell like strawberries and laugh. Lily thinks showers are fun. She says "Thank you, mom. I like showers now. And I like my pink horse. He is my best friend." Mom hugs Lily and says "You're welcome, Lily. I love you. And I love your pink horse too. He is very cute." They dry off and get ready for bed. Lily and her horse sleep well and dream of rocking in the park. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big balloon. It is red and shiny. It has a string. Tom and Mia want to touch it. + +"Look, a balloon!" Tom says. "Can we have it?" + +"Maybe," Mia says. "But we have to be fast. Someone might come and take it." + +They run to the balloon. They reach it. They grab the string. They are happy. + +"Wow, it is so pretty!" Mia says. "Can we keep it?" + +"Sure," Tom says. "It is ours now." + +They pull the string. They want to take the balloon home. But the balloon is strong. It does not want to go. It pulls back. It wants to rise. It wants to go to the sky. + +"Hey, stop!" Tom says. "Don't go!" + +"Help!" Mia says. "It is too fast!" + +The balloon pulls harder. It lifts Tom and Mia off the ground. They are scared. They hold on to the string. They hold on to each other. They rise higher and higher. + +"Help!" they shout. "Someone, help!" + +No one hears them. No one sees them. They are too high. They are alone. + +They cry. They are sad. They want to go back. They want their mom and dad. + +But then, they see something. They see a bird. It is big and white. It has wings. It flies near them. It looks at them. It smiles. + +"Hello," the bird says. "Who are you?" + +"We are Tom and Mia," they say. "We are lost. We have a balloon. It is too fast. It takes us to the sky. We want to go down. Can you help us?" + +The bird nods. It is kind. It has a spirit. It wants to help. + +"Of course," the bird says. "I can help you. I can fly. I can take you down. But you have to let go of the balloon. It is not yours. It belongs to the sky. It is happy there. You will be happy too. Trust me." + +Tom and Mia look at the bird. They look at the balloon. They are afraid. But they are brave. They trust the bird. They let go of the balloon. They see it rise higher and higher. They wave goodbye. + +The bird catches them. It holds them with its wings. It flies down. It is gentle. It is fast. It takes them to the park. It lands on the ground. It puts them down. + +"Thank you," Tom and Mia say. "You are a good bird. You are a friend." + +"You are welcome," the bird says. "You are good children. You are brave. You learned a lesson. You are happy." + +They hug the bird. They say goodbye. They run to their mom and dad. They tell them the story. They are safe. They are happy. They are home. +Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play outside in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. + +"Look, our snowman is so nice!" Mia says. + +"Yes, he is. But he is cold. Let's make him a fire to warm him up," Ben says. + +They find some sticks and some paper. They make a small fire near the snowman. They watch the fire and the snowman. + +"Be careful, the fire is hot. Don't touch it," Ben says. + +"I know, I know. But look, the snowman is happy. He is smiling," Mia says. + +They smile too. They are happy. + +But then, a big dog comes. He sees the fire and the snowman. He thinks they are toys. He runs to them. He barks and jumps. + +"Hey, stop! That's our snowman!" Ben shouts. + +"Go away, bad dog!" Mia shouts. + +But the dog does not listen. He kicks the fire with his paw. He kicks the snowman with his leg. He breaks the nose and the eyes. He makes a big mess. + +"NOOOO!" Ben and Mia cry. + +They are sad and angry. They run to the dog. They kick him back. They chase him away. + +"Bad dog, bad dog!" they yell. + +They look at their snowman. He is not nice anymore. He is melting. He has no nose and no eyes. He has ice on his hat and his scarf. + +They are very sad. They hug each other. + +"Sorry, snowman. We tried to make you happy," Ben says. + +"Maybe we can make you again tomorrow," Mia says. + +They hope so. They go home. They tell their mom and dad what happened. They get some hot chocolate and some cookies. They feel a little better. They still love their snowman. +Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play with blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They could build towers, houses, bridges and anything they wanted with their blocks. + +One day, they decided to make a big wall with all their blocks. They worked hard and stacked the blocks high and wide. They were proud of their wall and admired it. + +"Look at our brilliant wall!" Lily said. "It is the best wall ever!" + +"Yes, it is!" Sam agreed. "No one can make a better wall than us!" + +They were so happy that they did not notice a ball rolling towards their wall. The ball belonged to Ben, another friend who was playing nearby. Ben had kicked the ball hard and it bounced and rolled fast. + +The ball hit the wall and made it fall down. The blocks crashed and scattered everywhere. Lily and Sam were shocked and angry. They ran to Ben and shouted at him. + +"Hey, you broke our wall!" Lily said. "That was not nice!" + +"Yeah, you ruined our brilliant wall!" Sam said. "You are a bad friend!" + +Ben felt sorry and scared. He did not mean to break their wall. He only wanted to play with them. + +"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Ben said. "I did not see your wall. It was an accident. Please don't be mad at me!" + +Lily and Sam looked at Ben and then at their broken wall. They realized that they had been too proud and rude. They felt ashamed and sorry too. + +"It's okay, Ben," Lily said. "We forgive you. We were too mean to you." + +"Yes, we were," Sam said. "We should have shared our blocks with you. We can play together and make a new wall." + +They hugged Ben and smiled. They picked up their blocks and started to build again. They learned that being kind and friendly was more important than having a brilliant wall. +Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a cactus in a pot. It has green spikes and pink flowers. + +"Look, a cactus!" Anna says. "It is pretty." + +"Yes, it is," Ben says. "But do not touch it. It can hurt you." + +Anna wants to touch the cactus. She thinks it is soft and charming. She reaches out her hand. + +"Anna, no!" Ben shouts. "Stop!" + +But it is too late. Anna touches the cactus and feels a sharp pain. She cries out loud. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna says. "It hurts! It hurts!" + +Ben runs to Anna and hugs her. He sees some spikes in her hand. He pulls them out gently. + +"I am sorry, Anna," Ben says. "Are you okay?" + +Anna nods. She stops crying. She looks at the cactus. + +"It is not charming," Anna says. "It is mean." + +Ben smiles. He takes Anna's hand and leads her to the house. + +"Come on, Anna," Ben says. "Let us find something else to play with. Something that fits in our hands and does not hurt us." + +Anna agrees. She follows Ben. She forgets about the cactus. She thinks Ben is charming. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and has a long tail. The dog looks friendly, but Anna and Ben do not know him. + +"Hello, dog!" Ben says. He runs to the dog and tries to pet him. Anna is scared. She thinks the dog might bite. + +"Ben, be careful!" Anna calls. "We do not know the dog. He might be bad." + +But Ben does not listen. He is careless. He touches the dog's ears and nose. The dog does not like it. He growls and snaps at Ben. Ben screams and runs away. The dog chases him. + +"Help! Help!" Ben calls. Anna runs after them. She sees a man with a leash. The man is the dog's owner. He hears the noise and sees the dog and the children. + +"Stop! Stop!" the man calls. He runs to the dog and grabs the leash. He pulls the dog away from Ben. He is angry and sorry. + +"I am sorry, kids. My dog is not mean, but he does not like strangers. You should not touch him without asking. He might hurt you." the man says. + +Anna and Ben are scared and sad. They have a bad news. Ben has a bite on his arm. It is red and hurts. Anna has a tear on her dress. It is dirty and ripped. + +They go home and tell their moms. Their moms are worried and mad. They put a bandage on Ben's arm and a patch on Anna's dress. They say they have to be more careful next time. They say they have to ask before they touch a dog. They say they have to listen when someone calls them. + +Anna and Ben say they are sorry. They hug their moms and each other. They learn a lesson. They do not want to be careless again. They want to be safe and happy. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and sing songs. One day, they find a big box in the living room. They open it and see a new toy. It is a bird that can talk and sing. + +"Hello, I am Birdy. I can be your friend. Do you want to play with me?" the bird says. + +"Yes, yes, we want to play with you!" Lily and Ben say. They take the bird out of the box and put it on the table. + +"Can you sing a song for us, Birdy?" Lily asks. + +"Sure, I can sing a song. Listen to me." the bird says. It sings a song that Lily and Ben know. It is a song about the sun and the moon and the stars. It is a light song that makes them happy. + +"Wow, you sing very well, Birdy. You remind us of our mommy. She sings that song to us at night." Ben says. + +"Thank you, Ben. I like your mommy. She is very nice. She gave me to you as a gift. She said you are very good twins and you deserve a friend." the bird says. + +"Really? Mommy gave you to us? We love mommy. And we love you, Birdy. You are our new friend." Lily says. She hugs the bird and Ben joins her. + +They play and sing with the bird for a long time. They are very happy. They thank mommy for the gift and they thank Birdy for the song. They remind each other to be good and kind. They are a happy family. +Tim and Sue were brother and sister. They liked to play together, but sometimes they fought. One day, their mom made a big pie for dessert. She put it on the table and told them to behave and wait until after dinner. + +But Tim and Sue were very hungry and curious. They wanted to taste the pie. When mom went to the garden, they sneaked to the table and each took a big bite. The pie was sweet and yummy.

She called Tim and Sue and asked them what they did. + +Tim and Sue were scared and ashamed. They came out of their room and said sorry to mom. They told her they were naughty and greedy. They asked her to forgive them. + +Mom hugged them and said she loved them, but they had to learn to be humble and patient. She said they could not have any more pie today, but they could have some tomorrow if they behaved well. Tim and Sue nodded and promised to be good. They said they loved mom too and thanked her for the pie. +Lily and Max were playing in the park. They saw a big hill with many rocks. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. + +They asked their mom if they could go. Mom said yes, but be careful and come back soon. Lily and Max were happy and ran to the hill. + +They climbed and climbed, and found many different rocks. Some were smooth, some were rough, some were shiny, some were dull. They picked up some rocks and put them in their pockets. + +Then they saw something very bright. It was a rock that looked like the sun. It was gold! They had never seen a gold rock before. They were very excited and wanted to take it home. + +But the gold rock was very heavy. Lily and Max could not lift it. They tried to push it, but it did not move. They looked at each other and did not know what to do. + +They had to decide. Should they leave the gold rock and go back to mom, or should they stay and try to get the gold rock? They thought hard. + +They remembered that mom was waiting for them. They remembered that they had many other rocks in their pockets. They remembered that they were hungry and thirsty. They remembered that they loved mom more than gold. + +They decided to leave the gold rock and go back to mom. They said goodbye to the gold rock and thanked it for being so pretty. They ran down the hill and found mom. + +Mom hugged them and asked them what they found. They showed her their rocks and told her about the gold rock. Mom smiled and said they were very smart and brave to make that decision. + +They went home and had a snack. They put their rocks in a box and looked at them. They felt comfortable and happy. They had a good day. +Tom and Anna wanted to make a pumpkin pie for their mom. They went to the garden and looked for a big pumpkin. They saw many pumpkins, but some were too small, some were too green, and some had bugs on them. They kept looking until they found a wide pumpkin that was orange and round. + +"Look, Anna, this is the one!" Tom said, pointing to the wide pumpkin. + +"Yes, it is perfect!" Anna said, smiling. "But how can we get it? It is too heavy for us." + +Tom had an idea. He ran to the shed and got a wagon. He brought it to the pumpkin and said, "Help me, Anna. We can put the pumpkin on the wagon and pull it to the house." + +Anna nodded and helped Tom. They pushed and lifted the pumpkin onto the wagon. It was hard work, but they did it. They pulled the wagon to the house, where their mom was waiting. + +"Wow, what a nice pumpkin!" their mom said, surprised. "Did you find it in the garden?" + +"Yes, we did, mom!" Tom and Anna said together. "We want to make a pumpkin pie for you!" + +"That is so sweet of you!" their mom said, hugging them. "Thank you, my loves. You are very clever and strong.

She gives him a spoonful of soup. + +Ben blows on the soup and puts it in his mouth. He makes a face. + +"Yuck! This soup is not good!" He says. He spits out the soup. + +"Why not? What is wrong with it?" Sara asks. She is confused. + +"It is too white!" Ben says. He does not like white soup. He likes red soup with tomatoes. + +"White soup is good too!" Sara says. She likes white soup with milk and cheese. + +"No, it is not! It is bad!" Ben says. He does not want to eat any more soup. + +They start to argue. They do not agree on the soup. + +Mom hears them and comes to the kitchen. She sees the mess they have made. + +"What are you doing?" She asks them. + +"We are making soup!"

He sees Rex in a big glass box. He does not like lizards. He thinks they are scary and ugly. He says, "Ew, a lizard! I don't like lizards. They are gross. Why do you have a lizard?

You play with lizards. You are not cool. You are boring. I don't want to be your friend." + +Sam leaves Tim's room. He goes to the living room. He finds his mom. He says, "Mom, can we go home? I don't like Tim. He has a lizard. He is a baby." + +Tim stays in his room. He hugs Rex. He says, "Rex, you are my friend. You are not a monster. You are a lizard. You are cool. I like you." +Anna and Ben liked to play near the old mill. The mill was big and brown and had a big wheel that turned in the water. Sometimes they saw ducks and fish in the water.

It had many shiny things inside. + +"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. She picked up a necklace with a blue stone. "It is so pretty!" + +Tom saw a watch with a red strap. He wanted it. He grabbed it from the box. "This is mine!" he said. + +"No, it is not!" Lily said. "You have to share!" + +Tom did not want to share. He frowned. He pushed Lily. Lily fell down and hurt her knee. She cried. + +A man came out of a nearby house. He saw the box and the children. He was angry. He ran to them. "Hey, what are you doing?" he shouted. "This is my stuff! You are thieves!" + +Lily and Tom were scared. They dropped the necklace and the watch. They tried to run away. But the man was faster. He caught them. He called the police. + +The police came and took Lily and Tom to the station. They called their parents. Their parents were very mad. They scolded them and grounded them. Lily and Tom lost their friendship. They never played together again. They were sad. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to go on the slide. It was big and shiny and fast. They took turns to climb up the steps and slide down with a whoosh. + +"Look at me, Lily!" Tom shouted. "I am mighty! I can slide very far!" + +Lily smiled and clapped. She wanted to be mighty too. She climbed up the steps and sat on the slide. She pushed herself down with her feet and slid down with a whoosh. + +But she slid too fast and too far. She bumped into Tom, who was waiting at the end of the slide. They both fell on the grass and rolled over. + +"Ouch!" Tom said. "That hurt!" + +"Sorry, Tom!" Lily said. "Are you OK?" + +Tom rubbed his head and looked at Lily. She had a scratch on her knee and tears in her eyes. He felt sorry for her. + +"It's OK, Lily," he said. "I'm OK. You're OK. We're both mighty." + +He gave her a hug and helped her up. They walked to the bench where their mom was sitting. She had a band-aid and a juice box for them. + +"Mom, we had an accident on the slide," Tom said. + +"Mom, we're mighty," Lily said. + +Mom smiled and kissed them. She put the band-aid on Lily's knee and gave them the juice box. + +"You're both mighty," she said. "And brave. And sweet. And I love you." +Anna and Ben love to play in the garden. They have many toys and animals there. They have a ball, a bike, a doll, a car, and a rabbit. The rabbit is white and soft. His name is Fluffy. Anna and Ben like to feed him carrots and cuddle him. + +One day, Anna and Ben go to the garden and see Fluffy lying still on the grass. He does not move or breathe. Anna and Ben are sad and scared. They run to their mom and tell her what they saw. + +Mom hugs them and says, "I'm sorry, my loves. Fluffy is gone. He was old and sick. He is not in pain anymore. He is in a better place now." + +Anna and Ben ask, "What do we do with Fluffy?" + +Mom says, "We can bury him in the garden. We can dig a hole and put him inside. We can say goodbye and thank him for being a great animal and friend. We can also make a cross or a stone with his name on it." + +Anna and Ben nod and wipe their tears. They go to the garden with mom and find a spot for Fluffy. They take a shovel and dig a hole. They gently lift Fluffy and put him in the hole. They cover him with dirt and pat it down. They find a stick and a rock and make a cross. They write Fluffy on the rock with a marker. + +They stand by the grave and hold hands. They say, "Goodbye, Fluffy. We love you.

They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Ben had a red car and Lily had a blue car. They had a lot of fun. + +"Look, Ben, I can make my car jump over this book!" Lily said. She pushed her car hard and it flew over the book and landed on the other side. + +"Wow, Lily, that was cool!" Ben said. He wanted to try it too. He pushed his car hard and it flew over the book. But it did not land on the floor. It landed on something furry. + +"Uh-oh, Ben, your car is on the cat!" Lily said. She pointed to the cat that was sleeping on the couch. The cat was furry and soft. It did not like the car on its back. It woke up and shook its head. The car fell off and hit a hook on the wall. The hook was for hanging coats. The car got stuck on the hook. + +"Oops, Ben, your car is on the hook!" Lily said. She giggled. Ben did not think it was funny. He wanted his car back. + +"Hey, cat, give me my car!" Ben said. He tried to reach the hook, but he was too short. He jumped and stretched, but he could not get it. + +"Meow!" the cat said. It did not care about the car. It jumped off the couch and walked away. + +"Ben, I have an idea!" Lily said. She ran to the closet and got a broom. She gave it to Ben. + +"Here, Ben, use this!" Lily said. She helped Ben hold the broom. They used the broom to push the car off the hook. The car fell on the floor. + +"Yay, Ben, you got your car!" Lily said.

She was picking the berries. + +"Hello, children," she said. "What are you doing here?" + +"We were playing and we saw your field and your house," said Anna. + +"It's very nice," said Ben. + +The woman smiled. She was kind and friendly. + +"Thank you," she said. "This is my farm. I live here with my animals and my plants.

Tom says. + +"OK!" Mia says. + +They get inside the box and pretend to fly. They make noises like a plane. They see the sky, the clouds, and the birds. They see the city far away. They see the buildings, the cars, and the people. + +"Wow, the city is so big!" Mia says. + +"Yes, but it is also noisy and busy," Tom says. + +They fly over the city and look for a place to land.

It was an alligator! + +"Look, an alligator!" Tim said. He wanted to touch it. He was not afraid. + +"No, Tim, don't!" Lily said. She was scared. She knew alligators could bite. "It is not a toy. It is dangerous." + +But Tim did not listen. He ran to the pond and reached out his hand. The alligator opened its mouth and snapped at him. Tim screamed and pulled back his hand. He was lucky. The alligator did not catch him. + +"Tim, are you okay?" Lily asked. She ran to him and hugged him. She was glad he was not hurt. + +"I'm okay," Tim said. He was sorry. He was foolish. He looked at his hand. It was dirty and wet. "I need to wash my hand." + +"Yes, you do," Lily said. She took him to a fountain. She helped him wash his hand. She was gentle and careful. She knew his hand was delicate. She did not want to hurt him more. + +"Thank you, Lily," Tim said. He smiled at her. He was happy. He had a good friend. + +"You're welcome, Tim," Lily said. She smiled back. She was happy too. She had a good friend. + +They learned a lesson. They did not go near the alligator again. They played with the ducks and the fish instead. They had fun. They were safe. +Lily and Ben are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. Lily has a lot of red blocks and Ben has a lot of blue blocks. They share some yellow and green blocks. + +"Look, I made a big tower!" Lily says. She shows Ben her tower. It has red and yellow blocks. + +"Wow, that's nice!" Ben says. He shows Lily his house. It has blue and green blocks. "Do you want to play with my house?" + +"Yes, please!" Lily says. She puts her tower next to Ben's house. "Can we attach them?" + +"Sure!" Ben says. He finds a black block. He thinks it is a door. He puts it between his house and Lily's tower. "Now they are attached!" + +Lily and Ben are happy. They play with their blocks for a long time. They make more doors and windows and roofs. They make an order of their blocks. They put the red blocks first, then the yellow, then the blue, then the green. They leave the black blocks for the doors. + +"Look, we made a big city!" Lily says. She points to their blocks. + +"Wow, that's amazing!" Ben says. He claps his hands. + +They smile at each other. They are proud of their city. They hug their blocks. They are good friends. +Tom is a cat. He likes to play with his ball of yarn. He rolls it, chases it, and catches it. He is happy. + +One day, he sees a bird outside the window. The bird is small and brown. It sings a pretty song. Tom wants to play with the bird. He jumps on the window sill and meows. + +"Hello, bird. Do you want to play with me?" Tom asks. + +The bird looks at Tom and shakes its head. "No, cat. You are big and scary. You have sharp teeth and claws. You want to hurt me, not play with me." + +Tom does not understand. He thinks the bird is silly. He wants to show the bird that he is nice and friendly. He opens the window and runs outside. + +The bird sees Tom and flies away. Tom follows the bird. He runs fast and jumps high. He tries to catch the bird with his paws. He does not see the car. + +The car is big and loud. It comes fast and hits Tom. Tom feels a lot of pain. He cries out. His ball of yarn falls out of his mouth. His tail is broken. He cannot move. + +The bird sees Tom and feels sorry. He flies back and lands on Tom's head. He sings a sad song. + +"I'm sorry, cat. I did not mean to make you angry. You should have stayed inside. The car is dangerous. It can hurt you." + +Tom looks at the bird and tries to smile. He says, "It's okay, bird. You are not silly. You are smart and useful. You tried to rescue me. Thank you." + +Tom closes his eyes and does not wake up. The bird flies away and does not come back. Tom's ball of yarn rolls away and gets lost. Tom's tail is still broken. He is not happy. +Lila was a little fish who loved to explore the sea. She liked to swim fast and see new things. One day, she saw a big, shiny thing that looked like a rock. She wanted to go closer and touch it. + +But her friend Nemo, a small shrimp, said, "No, Lila, that is not a rock. That is a trap. It has a hole with food inside, but if you go in, you cannot come out. It is for catching fish like us. We should stay away from it." + +Lila did not listen to Nemo. She said, "You are just scared, Nemo. I am not afraid of anything. I want to see what is inside the trap. Maybe there is something fun or tasty. You can follow me or stay here." + +Lila swam towards the trap, and Nemo followed her. He did not want to leave her alone. He hoped she would change her mind and come back. But Lila was too curious and stubborn. She went inside the hole and saw some worms and shells. She thought they looked yummy and started to eat them. + +Suddenly, she heard a loud snap. The trap closed and Lila was trapped. She tried to push and bite the bars, but they were too strong. She realized she had made a big mistake. She was scared and sorry. She wished she had listened to Nemo. + +Nemo saw what happened and felt sad and worried. He wanted to help Lila, but he did not know how. He saw a big shadow above the trap. It was an enormous shark. The shark smelled the fish in the trap and wanted to eat them. He opened his mouth and bit the trap. + +Lila screamed and Nemo hid behind a coral. The shark shook the trap and broke it. He swallowed Lila and the worms and shells. He did not see Nemo, who was too small and fast. Nemo escaped and swam away. He was safe, but he lost his friend. + +Nemo learned a lesson that day. He learned that some things are dangerous and not worth exploring. He learned that he should listen to his friends who care about him and warn him. He learned that he should be careful and smart in the sea. He missed Lila and hoped she was happy in the shark's belly. He wished she had learned the lesson too. +Lily liked to learn new things. She liked to listen to her teacher talk about animals and colors and shapes. Sometimes, her teacher asked her to talk too. She had to stand in front of the class and say what she knew. This was called a lecture. + +Today, Lily had to give a lecture about her favorite animal. She chose the cat. She had a cat at home named Fluffy. She loved Fluffy very much. She wanted to tell her friends why cats were so great. + +But Lily was nervous. She felt her heart beat fast and her hands sweat. She was afraid she would forget what to say or make a mistake. She wished she could stay in her seat and listen to someone else. + +She took a deep breath and walked to the front. She held a picture of Fluffy in her hand. She looked at her friends and smiled. She said, "Hello, my name is Lily and I like cats. Cats are soft and furry and warm. They like to play and cuddle and purr. They can do funny things like chase a ball or climb a tree. They are good friends and make me happy. This is my cat Fluffy. He is black and white and has green eyes. He is very smart and sweet. I love him very much. Thank you for listening to my lecture." + +Lily finished and waited. She hoped her friends liked her lecture. She hoped her teacher was proud of her. She heard a sound. It was clapping. Her friends were clapping for her. They liked her lecture. They liked her cat. They liked her. Lily felt happy and proud. She clapped too. She had done a good job. She had given a good lecture. She had nothing to be nervous about. +Ben and Lily were playing in the backyard. They saw their dad making food on the grill. It smelled amazing. + +"What are you making, dad?" Ben asked. + +"I'm making burgers and hot dogs for lunch. Do you want some?" dad said. + +"Yes, please!" Lily said. "Can we help you?" + +"Sure, you can help me. You can put some cheese on the burgers and some ketchup on the hot dogs. Be careful, the grill is very hot," dad said. + +Ben and Lily put on their aprons and gloves. They helped dad with the food. They talked and laughed together. + +Soon, the food was ready. They put it on a big plate and took it to the table. Mom came out with some salad and juice. + +"Wow, this looks amazing, dad! You are the best cook!" mom said. + +"Thank you, mom. And thank you, Ben and Lily, for helping me. You are the best helpers!" dad said. + +They all sat down and enjoyed their lunch. They ate and drank and talked. They were very happy. +Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But they did not like the big boy who was mean to them. He had a rod that he used to hit things. He hit the flowers, the trees and the birds. He made them cry. + +One day, Lila and Ben saw the big boy with his rod. He was walking towards them. They were scared. They wanted to run away, but they were too slow. The big boy came closer and closer. He raised his rod and smiled. + +But then, something happened. A loud noise came from the sky. It was a plane. It was flying very low and very fast. It made a big wind that blew the big boy's hat off. The big boy looked up and saw the plane. He was surprised. He dropped his rod and ran away. + +Lila and Ben saw the big boy's face. He was pale. He looked like a ghost. They laughed. They picked up his rod and threw it in the trash. They did not cry anymore. They were happy. They hugged each other and went back to play. They liked the plane. It was their friend. +Lily and Ben liked to play with their toy boats at the pond. They had a red boat and a blue boat. They made them sail and race on the water. They had fun. + +One day, they saw an enormous duck at the pond. It was bigger than any duck they had ever seen. It had a long neck and a big beak. It looked hungry. + +"Wow, look at that duck!" Lily said. "It's so big!" + +"Maybe it wants to play with our boats," Ben said. He threw some bread to the duck. The duck ate the bread and quacked. + +Lily and Ben moved closer to the duck. They wanted to see it better. They did not see the wind blowing their boats away from the shore. + +The duck saw the boats. It swam towards them. It opened its beak and snapped. It caught the red boat in its mouth. It crunched and swallowed it. + +"Hey, that's our boat!" Lily shouted. "Give it back!" + +The duck ignored her. It saw the blue boat. It swam faster. It opened its beak and snapped. It caught the blue boat in its mouth. It crunched and swallowed it. + +"Hey, that's our boat too!" Ben cried. "Stop it!" + +The duck ignored him. It quacked and swam away. It was full and happy. + +Lily and Ben looked at the pond. They had no boats left. They had lost them to the enormous duck. They were sad and angry. + +"Let's go home," Lily said. "I don't like that duck." + +"Me neither," Ben said. "It's mean and greedy." + +They held hands and walked away from the pond. They learned a lesson. They should not play with their boats near an enormous duck. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball, a bike and a kite. They have fun together. + +One day, a new person comes to the park. His name is Sam. He has a wide smile and a big hat. He says hello to Anna and Ben. + +"Hi, I am Sam. Can I play with you?" he asks. + +Anna and Ben look at each other. They are not sure. They like their toys. They do not want to share. + +"Sorry, we are busy. We have a ball, a bike and a kite. You do not have anything," Anna says. + +Sam feels sad. He does not have any toys. He just moved to a new house. He does not have any friends. + +He walks away. He sits on a bench. He looks at the sky. + +Anna and Ben play with their toys. But they do not have fun. They feel bad. They see Sam alone. They think he is lonely. + +They talk to each other. They have an idea. They run to Sam. + +"Hi, Sam. We are sorry. We were not nice. Do you want to play with us?" Ben says. + +Sam looks up. He sees Anna and Ben. They have their toys. They have a wide smile. + +"Yes, I do. Thank you. You are nice," Sam says. + +Anna and Ben give Sam their toys. They take turns. They play with the ball, the bike and the kite. They have fun together. + +They include Sam. He is their new friend. They are happy. +Sara and Ben were having lunch with their mom. They had cheese sandwiches and apple slices on their plates. Sara liked her plate very much. It was smooth and shiny and had a picture of a pink flower on it. She admired her plate and smiled. + +"Mom, can I have this plate always?" she asked. + +Mom nodded. "Yes, dear, that is your special plate. You can use it whenever you want." + +Ben looked at his plate. It was smooth and shiny too, but it had a picture of a blue car on it. He did not like cars very much. He liked animals better. He wished he had a plate with a lion or a monkey on it. He did not admire his plate and frowned. + +"Mom, can I have a different plate?" he asked. + +Mom shook her head. "No, honey, that is your special plate. You can use it whenever you want." + +Ben was not happy. He did not want to use his plate. He wanted to trade with Sara. He looked at Sara and said, "Sara, can I have your plate? I like flowers more than cars." + +Sara was surprised. She liked her plate very much. She did not want to trade with Ben. She looked at Ben and said, "No, Ben, this is my plate. I like flowers more than animals." + +Ben and Sara started to argue. They raised their voices and made a lot of noise. Mom heard them and came to the table. She saw their plates and their faces. She was not pleased. + +"Ben and Sara, stop fighting!" she said. "You should be grateful for what you have. Your plates are both smooth and shiny and beautiful. You should admire them and enjoy your lunch. And you should share and be kind to each other. Do you understand?" + +Ben and Sara nodded. They felt sorry for making mom angry. They looked at their plates and their sandwiches and their apple slices. They realized they were lucky to have them. They decided to stop arguing and start eating. They also decided to say something nice to each other. + +"Ben, I like your car plate. It is very cool," Sara said. + +"Sara, I like your flower plate. It is very pretty," Ben said. + +Mom smiled. She was glad they made up. She hugged them and said, "That's better. I love you both very much. And I admire you for being good children." +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. They have a big box of blocks. The blocks have different colors and shapes. Anna and Ben can make many things with the blocks. + +One day, they decide to make a pattern with the blocks. They take turns to put one block next to another. They try to make the colors and shapes match. They make a long line of blocks on the floor. They are very proud of their pattern. + +"Look, Mommy, we made a pattern!" Anna says, pointing to the blocks. + +"That's wonderful, my darlings!" Mommy says, smiling. "You are very clever and creative. Can I see your pattern?" + +Mommy comes closer and looks at the line of blocks. She sees red, blue, yellow, and green blocks. She sees squares, circles, triangles, and stars. She sees how Anna and Ben made the blocks fit together. + +"That's a very beautiful and fun pattern!" Mommy says. "You worked very well together. I'm so happy to see you share and cooperate. You are very good twins." + +Anna and Ben beam with joy. They love to make Mommy happy. They love to play with each other. They love their blocks and their pattern. + +They run to Mommy and hug her. Mommy hugs them back. They feel warm and comfortable in Mommy's arms. They feel loved and safe. + +They are a happy family. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, Tom has a new toy. It is a mighty robot. It can walk, talk and shoot lasers. + +"Look at my robot!" Tom says to Sue. "It is very cool and strong. Do you want to play with it?" + +Sue nods. She likes robots too. She takes the robot and makes it walk and talk. She has fun. + +"Can I have a turn?" Tom asks. He wants to play with his robot too. + +Sue shakes her head. She does not want to give it back. She likes the robot too much. She hugs it and says, "No, it is mine now. Go away!" + +Tom feels sad and angry. He wants his robot back. He says, "That is not fair! It is my robot! Give it back or I will not be your friend!" + +Sue does not care. She says, "I do not need you. I have the robot. It is my friend now. Go away!" + +Tom runs away. He cries. He feels lonely. He goes to his house. He sees his mom. She is making tea. She has a mug. It has a picture of a robot on it. + +"Mom, can I have some tea?" Tom asks. He hopes it will make him feel better. + +"Of course, my dear," his mom says. She sees his tears. She asks, "What is wrong? Why are you crying?" + +Tom tells her what happened. He tells her about Sue and the robot. He tells her how Sue was mean and did not share. + +His mom hugs him. She says, "I am sorry, Tom. That was not nice of Sue. She should have shared with you. Sharing is caring. Maybe she will realize her mistake and say sorry to you." + +Tom hopes so. He says, "Maybe. But I do not want to play with her anymore. She is not a good friend." + +His mom says, "I understand. But maybe you can give her another chance. Maybe you can invite her to have tea with us. Maybe you can show her your mug. Maybe you can teach her how to be a good friend." + +Tom thinks about it. He says, "Maybe. But only if she gives me back my robot." + +His mom smiles. She says, "That sounds fair. Why don't you call her and see if she wants to come over?" + +Tom nods. He picks up the phone. He calls Sue. He says, "Hi, Sue. Do you want to have tea with me and my mom? I have a mug with a robot on it. It is very cool. And I will let you play with my robot again. If you say sorry and share." + +Sue is surprised. She feels sorry. She says, "Yes, Tom. I want to have tea with you and your mom. I am sorry for being mean. I will give you back your robot. And I will share. You are a good friend." + +Tom smiles. He says, "OK, Sue. Come over soon. I will wait for you." + +He hangs up the phone. He tells his mom. His mom says, "Well done, Tom. You are a mighty and kind boy. I am proud of you." + +Tom feels happy. He hugs his mom. He says, "Thank you, mom. You are the best." + +They wait for Sue. They have tea and cookies. They play with the robot. They have fun. They are friends again. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a big window. They can see the sky and the trees. + +One night, Anna and Ben cannot sleep. They hear a loud noise on the roof. They are scared. They think it is a monster. + +"Ben, what is that?" Anna whispers. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is a big bird. Or a dragon." Ben says. + +They hide under their blanket. They hold each other. They wish their mom and dad were here. + +The noise stops. They hear a soft voice. + +"Hello, Anna and Ben. Don't be afraid. I am Santa Claus. I have some gifts for you. You have been very good this year. I know you believe in me." + +Anna and Ben peek out of their blanket. They see a man with a red suit and a white beard. He has a big bag and a smile. He is not a monster. He is Santa Claus. + +"Santa Claus!" they shout. They jump out of their bed. They run to him. They hug him. + +"Thank you, Santa Claus. We love you. You are the best." they say. + +"You are very welcome, Anna and Ben. I love you too. You are very brave. Now, go back to your bed. I have to go to other children. Merry Christmas." Santa Claus says. + +He gives them each a gift. He puts them under the tree. He waves to them. He goes back to the roof. He flies away with his reindeer. + +Anna and Ben go back to their bed. They open their gifts. They are very happy. They have what they wished for. They cuddle with their new toys. They fall asleep. + +They dream of Santa Claus. They know he is real. They believe in him. +Tom and Lily were twins who loved to go to the beach. They liked to play in the sand, splash in the water, and look for shells. One day, they saw a big whale on the shore. It was not moving and looked very sad. + +"Look, a whale!" Tom said. "Can we touch it?" + +"No, we can't," Lily said. "It is hurt and needs help. We have to find someone who can help it." + +They ran to find their mom and dad, who were sitting on a blanket. They told them about the whale and asked them to come. Their mom and dad followed them to the shore, where they saw the whale. + +"Oh, poor thing," their mom said. "It must have got lost and stranded by the tide. We have to call the animal rescue team. They will know what to do." + +She took out her phone and called the number. Soon, a big truck and a boat arrived. The animal rescue team had a big net and a crane. They put the net around the whale and lifted it with the crane. They put the whale on the boat and took it to the water. + +"Bye, whale," Tom and Lily said. "We hope you feel better and find your family." + +The whale made a loud noise and waved its tail. It looked happy and grateful. It swam away into the deep water. + +Tom and Lily learned that day that some animals need help when they are in trouble. They also learned that they should not touch or bother them, but remain calm and find someone who can help them. They felt proud and happy that they helped the whale. They also felt amazed and curious about the big and beautiful animal. They decided to learn more about whales and how to protect them. They also thanked their mom and dad and the animal rescue team for their help. They had a very special day at the beach. +Lily was a girl who liked to demand things. She always wanted more toys, more candy, more attention. She did not like to share or say thank you. She thought she was better than everyone else. + +One day, she went to the zoo with her mom and dad. She saw many animals, but she was not happy. She wanted to touch them and play with them. She did not listen to the signs that said "Do not feed" or "Do not climb". She demanded to go inside the cages. + +Her mom and dad said no, that was dangerous and rude. But Lily did not care. She waited until they were not looking and sneaked into the cage of a big lion. She thought the lion was cute and fluffy. She wanted to hug him and take him home. + +But the lion did not like Lily. He did not like her loud voice and her grabbing hands. He roared and showed his teeth. He was angry and scared. He wanted to escape from the cage and from Lily. + +Lily was afraid too. She realized she made a big mistake. She screamed and cried for help. Her mom and dad heard her and ran to the cage. They saw the lion and Lily. They were terrified and called the zookeepers. + +The zookeepers came and used a big net to catch the lion. They took him away to a safe place. They were angry at Lily and her parents. They said Lily could have been hurt or killed by the lion. They said Lily was lucky to be alive. They said Lily and her parents had to leave the zoo and never come back. + +Lily was sad and ashamed. She wished she had listened to her mom and dad. She wished she had been nice and respectful to the animals. She learned a hard lesson. She was not proud of herself. + +The moral of the story is: Do not demand things that are not yours. Do not ignore the rules and the warnings. Do not bother the animals that are not your friends. Be grateful and polite to everyone. +One day, Lily and Ben went to the park with their mom. They saw a big tree with many birds on it. Lily and Ben liked the birds. They wanted to feed them some bread. + +"Mom, can we give the birds some bread?" Lily asked. + +"Okay, but be careful. Don't go too close to the tree. Some birds are naughty and they might bite you," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben nodded. They took some bread from Mom and broke it into small pieces. They threw the bread on the ground near the tree. The birds flew down and ate the bread. Lily and Ben were happy. + +But one bird was very naughty. It did not want to share the bread with the other birds. It wanted all the bread for itself. It flew to Lily and Ben and tried to take the bread from their hands. It pecked at their fingers and made loud noises. + +"Ow! Go away, naughty bird!" Lily cried. + +"Stop it, naughty bird!" Ben shouted. + +Mom heard them and ran to them. She scared the naughty bird away. She hugged Lily and Ben and checked their fingers. + +"Are you okay, my darlings?" Mom asked. + +"Yes, Mom. But the naughty bird hurt us," Lily said. + +"I'm sorry, my darlings. That was a very naughty bird. It should not have done that. Let me tell you a story about a nice bird who shared his bread with his friends," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben smiled. They forgot about the naughty bird. They listened to Mom's story and learned to be nice and share. They enjoyed the rest of the day at the park. +Lily and Ben were playing cowboys and robbers in the backyard. Lily had a hat and a pistol, and Ben had a scarf and a bag of coins. They ran around the trees and the swing, pretending to shoot and chase each other. + +"Bang, bang, you're dead, robber!" Lily shouted, pointing her pistol at Ben. + +"No, I'm not, cowboy! You missed me!" Ben said, dodging behind a bush. + +"Yes, I did, I saw you fall!" Lily argued, running after him. + +They kept playing until they heard their mom calling them for lunch. They dropped their toys and ran inside, where they saw a big plate of sandwiches and a bowl of fruit. + +"Wow, this looks delicious!" Ben exclaimed, grabbing a sandwich. + +"Me too, I'm hungry!" Lily agreed, taking a piece of fruit. + +They sat down at the table and ate happily, talking about their game. + +"Mom, can we play more after lunch?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, honey, but be careful with your pistol, okay? It's not a real one, but it can still hurt someone if you're not careful." Mom said. + +"Okay, mom, I will be careful. And if I hurt Ben, I will heal him with a kiss." Lily said. + +"That's very sweet of you, Lily. And Ben, if you hurt Lily, you will heal her too, right?" Mom said. + +"Of course, mom. Lily is my best friend, I don't want to hurt her." Ben said. + +They finished their lunch and thanked their mom. Then they ran outside again, ready to play more cowboys and robbers. They had a lot of fun, and they always healed each other with kisses when they pretended to get shot. +Lily likes to record her voice. She has a toy that can do that. She presses a button and says something. Then she presses another button and hears what she said. She thinks it is fun. + +One day, Lily wants to record how tall she is. She asks her mom to help her. Her mom gets a measure. It is a long tape with numbers on it. Her mom puts one end on the floor and the other end on Lily's head. She tells Lily how many numbers she is. + +Lily is happy. She wants to record the number. She runs to her toy and presses the button. She says, "I am 36 numbers tall!" Then she presses the other button and listens. She smiles. + +But then she hears a loud noise. It is raining outside. Lily likes rain. She wants to go out and play. She puts on her boots and her coat. She grabs her toy and runs to the door. + +Her mom stops her. She says, "Lily, you can't take your toy outside. It will get wet. Wet is bad for your toy. It will stop working. You can leave it here and play with it later." + +Lily is sad. She likes her toy. She doesn't want it to get wet. She puts it on the table. She says, "Bye, toy. I will come back soon." Then she goes out with her mom. She splashes in the puddles. She thinks rain is fun, too. +Lily and Ben were playing with chalk on the sidewalk. They drew big flowers and stars and cars. They had fun making colors and shapes. + +"Look, Lily, I made a fish!" Ben said, pointing to his blue chalk drawing. + +"That's a nice fish, Ben. Can I make one too?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, Lily. Here, take some blue chalk. You can make a fish next to mine." Ben said, handing her a piece of chalk. + +Lily took the chalk and started to draw a fish. She made a round body, a tail, and a fin. She gave her fish an eye and a mouth. She was happy with her fish. + +"Wow, Lily, your fish is beautiful. It looks like it can swim in the water." Ben said. + +"Thank you, Ben. Your fish is beautiful too. It looks like it can dive in the water." Lily said. + +"Dive? What does dive mean?" Ben asked. + +"Dive means to go down in the water, like this." Lily said, and she bent her knees and jumped forward, pretending to dive. + +"Ooh, that looks fun. Can I try?" Ben asked. + +"Sure, Ben. But be careful, don't hit your head on the sidewalk." Lily said. + +Ben nodded and bent his knees and jumped forward, pretending to dive. But he jumped too far and his head hit the edge of the sidewalk. He felt a sharp pain and started to cry. + +"Ow, ow, ow! That hurts!" Ben cried. + +Lily heard Ben cry and ran to him. She saw blood on his forehead and felt worried. + +"Oh no, Ben, are you okay? You have a boo-boo on your head. We need to get help." Lily said. + +She helped Ben stand up and held his hand. She looked around and saw a lady walking her dog. She waved to the lady and shouted. + +"Help, help! My friend has a boo-boo. He needs a band-aid. Can you help us?" Lily shouted. + +The lady heard Lily and saw Ben. She came over and looked at his wound. + +"Hello, children. What happened? Did you fall?" The lady asked. + +"Yes, we were playing with chalk and he tried to dive and he hit his head." Lily explained. + +"I see. That's not good. You need to clean your wound and put a band-aid on it. Come with me, I have a first-aid kit in my house. It's not far from here." The lady said. + +She took Ben and Lily by the hand and led them to her house. She cleaned Ben's wound with water and soap and put a band-aid on it. She gave him a hug and a cookie. + +"There, there. You'll be fine. It's just a small cut. It will heal soon. You're a brave boy." The lady said. + +"Thank you, lady. You're very nice. I'm sorry I made a mess." Ben said. + +"You're welcome, Ben. It's okay. Accidents happen. Just be more careful next time. And don't forget your chalk. You can take it with you." The lady said. + +She gave Ben and Lily their chalk and walked them back to the sidewalk. She waved goodbye and went back to her dog. + +Ben and Lily thanked the lady again and picked up their chalk. They looked at their fish drawings and smiled. + +"Ben, I'm glad you're okay. I was worried about you." Lily said. + +"Lily, I'm glad you're my friend. You helped me a lot." Ben said. + +They hugged each other and decided to draw something else. They drew a big heart and wrote their names inside. They were happy and proud of their chalk art. They played until their moms came to pick them up. They said goodbye and promised to play again soon. They had a good day. +Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play baseball in the park. They have a bat, a ball and a glove. They take turns hitting and catching. + +"Hit it hard, Tim!" Sam says. He throws the ball to Tim. + +Tim swings the bat and hits the ball. The ball flies high in the air. Tim runs to the first base. + +"Wow, good hit!" Sam says. He runs after the ball. + +But the ball is too far. It lands in a big tree. Sam cannot reach it. + +"Oh no, our ball is stuck!" Tim says. He stops at the first base. + +Sam looks at the tree. He sees a hole in the trunk. He has an idea. + +"Maybe we can use this stick to get the ball out," he says. He picks up a long stick from the ground. He thinks it is useful. + +He walks to the tree. He puts the stick in the hole. He pushes and pulls. + +But nothing happens. The ball does not move. + +"This stick is not useful," Sam says. He drops the stick. + +Tim and Sam are sad. They do not have their ball. They do not want to play anymore. + +They sit under the tree. They look at the sky. They see some clouds. They see some birds. They see the sun. + +They start to feel sleepy. They yawn. + +"Let's go home, Sam," Tim says. He yawns again. + +"OK, Tim," Sam says. He yawns too. + +They get up. They leave their bat and glove under the tree. They hope to find their ball tomorrow. + +They walk home. They hold hands. They yawn all the way. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play together. One day, they are bored. They do not know what to do. + +"Let's watch television," Lily says. She likes to watch cartoons and animals. + +"No, television is boring," Tom says. He likes to play with cars and trucks. + +"Then what do you want to do?" Lily asks. + +Tom thinks for a moment. He has an idea. + +"Let's play pretend," he suggests. "We can be hairy monsters and scare everyone." + +Lily likes the idea. She nods. + +"Okay, let's play pretend," she agrees. "But we have to be quiet. We do not want to wake up Mom and Dad." + +They go to Tom's room. They find some old clothes and blankets. They put them on. They look very hairy. They make funny noises. They pretend to be monsters. + +They have a lot of fun. They scare each other. They laugh. They do not watch television. They are happy. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big shiny car parked near the swings. They wandered over to look at it. It was very expensive and had a lot of buttons and lights. + +"Wow, this is a cool car!" Tom said. "I wonder who owns it." + +"Maybe it's a spy or a superhero," Lily said. "Look, there's a gun in the back seat!" + +She pointed to a black metal thing that looked like a toy. Tom wanted to touch it, but Lily stopped him. + +"No, Tom, don't touch it! It might be dangerous. Guns are not toys. They can hurt people." + +"But I just want to see it," Tom said. "Maybe it makes a funny noise or shoots water." + +He reached for the gun, but Lily pulled him back. She was scared and angry. + +"Tom, stop it! You're being silly and naughty. Come on, let's go back to the swings. Mommy and Daddy will be here soon." + +She dragged him away from the car. Tom was sad and curious. He looked back at the gun and wondered what it could do. + +Just then, a man came out of the shop next to the park. He was wearing a suit and sunglasses. He had a badge and a walkie-talkie. He was a policeman. He saw the car and the gun and ran towards them. He shouted into his walkie-talkie. + +"Code red, code red! I found the car and the gun. The robbers must be nearby. Backup, now!" + +He grabbed the gun and checked it. It was loaded and ready to fire. He looked around and saw two men running out of the bank across the street. They had masks and bags of money. They were the robbers. They saw the policeman and the car and panicked. They started shooting at him. + +The policeman ducked behind the car and returned fire. There was a loud bang and a lot of smoke. People screamed and ran away. Tom and Lily heard the noise and saw the smoke. They were scared and confused. They hugged each other and cried. + +"Mommy, Daddy, where are you?" they sobbed. + +The end. +Sam liked to look at the big book with many pages. The book was very old and had pictures of animals and people from long ago. Sam's mom said the book was ancient and very special. She said Sam had to be careful with the book and not tear the pages. + +One day, Sam was alone in his room with the book. He lay on his bed and opened the book. He saw a page with a picture of a lion and a man. The lion was angry and the man had a spear. Sam wondered what would happen next. He turned the page. + +But the next page was blank. There was no picture, no words, nothing. Sam was confused and disappointed. He turned back to the page with the lion and the man. But that page was blank too. Sam felt a cold shiver. He looked at the other pages. They were all blank. + +Sam heard his mom calling him from downstairs. He closed the book and ran to her. He wanted to tell her what happened, but he was afraid she would be angry. He hoped the book would be normal again. + +"Sam, what are you doing?" his mom asked. "Did you look at the book?" + +"Yes, mom, I did," Sam said. + +"Did you like it?" his mom asked. + +Sam hesitated. He didn't know what to say. He looked at the book in his hands. He saw something strange. The cover of the book had changed. It was no longer old and brown. It was shiny and red. And it had a picture of a lion and a man. The lion was smiling and the man had a flower. Sam felt a warm glow. He smiled too. + +"I liked it very much, mom," he said. "It was a magic book." +Lily and Ben were at the park with their mom. They saw a big fountain with water that went up and down. Lily wanted to go closer and touch the water. Ben thought it was boring. He wanted to play with his ball. + +"Mom, can I go to the fountain?" Lily asked. + +"OK, but be careful. Don't get wet or run into the street," Mom said. + +Lily ran to the fountain. She saw a shiny coin at the bottom. She reached out her hand to get it. But the water was cold and deep. She felt scared. + +"Help! Help!" she cried. + +Ben heard Lily. He dropped his ball and ran to the fountain. He saw Lily's hand in the water. He grabbed it and pulled her out. + +"Are you OK, Lily?" he asked. + +"Yes, thank you, Ben. You protected me," Lily said. + +They hugged each other. Mom came and gave them both a towel. + +"I'm proud of you, Ben. You were brave and kind," Mom said. + +"Can we go home now? I'm cold and wet," Lily said. + +"Sure, let's go home. Maybe we can find something more fun to do than the fountain," Ben said. + +They all went home. Lily and Ben decided to play with the ball together. They had more fun than the fountain. +Lily and Max were twins who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a big box in the living room. It had a bow and a tag that said "To Lily and Max, from Grandma and Grandpa". They were very happy and curious. + +They wanted to open the box and see what was inside. But Mom said they had to wait until after dinner. She said it was a surprise for their birthday. Lily and Max were sad and impatient. They asked Mom if they could just peek a little bit. Mom said no, and told them to go play in their room. + +Lily and Max went to their room, but they did not want to play with their old toys. They wanted to play with the new toy in the box. They had a plan. They decided to sneak out of their room and go to the living room. They said they would be very quiet and careful. They said they would just wrap the box again after they looked inside. + +They tiptoed to the living room and saw the box. They lifted the bow and opened the flap. They saw a big and fluffy teddy bear. It had a red shirt and a blue hat. It looked very cute and soft. Lily and Max smiled and reached for the teddy bear. + +But then they heard a loud voice. It was Mom. She had seen them from the kitchen. She was very angry and disappointed. She said they had been naughty and dishonest. She said they had ruined the surprise and the fun. She said they had to go back to their room and stay there until dinner. She said she would be the judge of their punishment. + +Lily and Max felt very sorry and ashamed. They dropped the teddy bear and ran to their room. They cried and hugged each other. They wished they had not been so lazy and curious. They wished they had listened to Mom and waited for their birthday. They learned a hard lesson that day. +Tom and Lily are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a big box of cars, dolls, blocks and books. They like to make up stories with their toys and pretend they are in different places. + +"Let's go fishing!" Tom says, holding a car with a hook on the back. "We can catch some big fish and cook them for dinner." + +"Okay!" Lily says, picking up a doll with a light dress. "I will be the cook and you will be the fisherman. Where are we going to fish?" + +Tom looks around and sees a blue blanket on the sofa. He drags it to the floor and spreads it out. "This is the sea," he says. "We have to be careful not to fall in. The fish are hiding under the blanket." + +Tom and Lily sit on the edge of the blanket and pretend to throw their hooks into the sea. They make noises like fish and splash the blanket with their hands. They have a lot of fun. + +Suddenly, Tom feels something tug on his hook. He pulls hard and lifts his car up. He sees a big sock stuck on the hook. He laughs and shows it to Lily. + +"Look, I caught a sock-fish!" he says. "It is very soft and warm. Do you think we can eat it?" + +Lily giggles and shakes her head. "No, silly, we can't eat a sock-fish. It is not a real fish. It is a sock. It belongs to Daddy. He must have left it here by mistake." + +Tom and Lily look at each other and smile. They decide to put the sock back on the sofa and keep fishing. They hope to catch some more funny things on their hooks. They feel happy and curious. They love playing together. +Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a pink sweater and long hair. Lily always took Anna with her to school. Anna was popular. All the other kids wanted to play with her. + +One day, Lily forgot to put Anna in her backpack. She left her on the sofa. When she came back from school, she could not find Anna. She looked everywhere. She was very sad. + +"Mommy, where is Anna?" she asked. + +"Anna is in the trash," Mommy said. "She was very dirty and smelly. I threw her away." + +Lily was shocked. She ran to the trash can. She saw Anna's pink sweater sticking out. She pulled her out. Anna was covered in banana peels and coffee grounds. + +"Mommy, how could you do this?" she cried. "Anna is my best friend. You are so mean!" + +Mommy was angry. She grabbed Lily and Anna. She took them to the bedroom. + +"You are a bad girl, Lily," she said. "You did not take care of your doll. You did not listen to me. You are punished. You have to stay in your room for an hour. And you have to give Anna to me. I will wash her and give her to someone else." + +Lily was scared. She did not want to lose Anna. She hugged her tight. + +"Please, Mommy, no!" she begged. "Please let me keep Anna. I love her. I will clean her and make her pretty again. I will be a good girl. Please, Mommy, please!" + +Mommy looked at Lily. She saw her tears and heard her voice. She felt sorry for her. + +"Okay, Lily," she said. "I will give you one more chance. You can keep Anna. But you have to wash her and take good care of her. And you have to say sorry to me. And you still have to stay in your room for an hour. Do you understand?" + +Lily nodded. She said sorry to Mommy. She thanked her for letting her keep Anna. She took Anna to the bathroom. She washed her and dried her. She combed her hair and put her sweater back on. She took her to her room. She played with her and told her stories. She was happy. She learned her lesson. She never forgot Anna again. +One day, a boy named Tom went to school. He liked to read books and learn new things. But some of his classmates did not like to read. They liked to play and make noise. They did not listen to the teacher when she gave a lecture. They were ignorant. + +One day, the teacher gave a lecture about animals. She showed pictures of different animals and said their names and sounds. Tom was very interested and paid attention. He wanted to know more about animals. But his classmates did not care. They talked and laughed and threw things. They were ignorant. + +The teacher was angry and sad. She asked the class to be quiet and respectful. But they did not listen. They were ignorant. Then, she had an idea. She said, "I have a surprise for you. Tomorrow, we will go to the zoo and see the animals in real life. But only those who read a book about animals tonight can go. The others have to stay in school and do extra work." + +Tom was very happy. He loved the zoo and he wanted to see the animals. He went home and read a book about animals. He learned many facts and stories. He was not ignorant. But his classmates did not read. They played and watched TV. They were ignorant. + +The next day, Tom went to the zoo with the teacher and a few other students who read. They saw lions and elephants and monkeys and more. They had fun and learned a lot. They were not ignorant. But his classmates stayed in school and did extra work. They were bored and unhappy. They were ignorant. + +Tom learned that reading is good and fun. He learned that being ignorant is bad and sad. He learned that listening to the teacher is important and respectful. He learned a moral value. He was a good boy. +Ben and Lily were twins who loved to play. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big box of animals. They liked to pretend they were in the jungle and make noises like lions and monkeys. + +One day, their mom said they had to go to the store with her. She said they could bring one toy each, but not the box of animals. It was too big and heavy. Ben and Lily were sad. They did not want to go to the store. They hated the store. It was boring and noisy and had no animals. + +They picked one toy each and got in the car. Ben brought a red car and Lily brought a yellow doll. They hoped the store would be quick. But when they got there, their mom said they had to buy a lot of things. She said they needed new clothes and shoes and books and food. Ben and Lily did not care about those things. They wanted to play with their animals. + +They followed their mom around the store, but they did not have fun. They saw many things they did not like. They saw clothes that were ugly and itchy. They saw shoes that were tight and hard. They saw books that were boring and long. They saw food that was yucky and green. They said to their mom, "We don't like these things. They are expensive and bad. Can we go home now?" + +Their mom said, "No, we have to buy these things. They are important and good. You have to be patient and polite. You have many toys at home. You can play with them later." + +Ben and Lily did not listen. They were angry and tired. They started to cry and scream. They threw their toys on the floor. They said, "We hate these things. We hate the store. We want to go home. We want to play with our animals." + +Their mom was embarrassed and upset. She said, "Stop it, Ben and Lily. You are being naughty and rude. You have to behave and calm down. You are making a scene and bothering people." + +But Ben and Lily did not stop. They cried and screamed louder. They made a big mess and a big noise. They did not care about people. They only cared about their animals. + +The end. +Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to race them, park them, and make noises with them. + +One day, Tom saw a new car that Lily had. It was shiny and red, and it had a big horn. Tom wanted to play with it, but Lily said no. + +"Can I borrow your car, please?" Tom asked. + +"No, it is mine. You have your own cars," Lily said. + +"But I like your car. It is so pretty and loud. Please, let me borrow it for a little while," Tom begged. + +"No, no, no. Go away. You are selfish. You always want what I have," Lily shouted. + +Tom felt sad and angry. He thought Lily was selfish too. He decided to take her car when she was not looking. He grabbed it and ran away. + +Lily saw what Tom did and ran after him. She was very mad. She wanted her car back. + +"Give me my car, Tom. You are a thief. You took my car without asking," Lily yelled. + +Tom did not listen. He kept running with the car. He thought he could keep it forever. + +But then he tripped and fell. The car flew out of his hands and broke. It was not shiny and red anymore. It was dirty and cracked. The horn did not work. + +Tom and Lily both cried. They had lost their car and their friend. They wished they had shared and played nicely. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. They had a bucket full of worms and beetles. They were very happy. + +But then they saw something move in the grass. It was small and gray and had a long tail. It was a mouse! Lily and Tom were scared of mice. They thought mice were dirty and mean. They dropped their bucket and ran away. + +"Help! Help! A mouse!" they shouted. + +Their mom heard them and came outside. She saw the mouse too. But she was not scared. She smiled and picked up the mouse gently. + +"Don't be scared, my loves. This is not a mean mouse. This is a fancy mouse. See, he has a red ribbon around his neck. He is a pet. He belongs to our neighbor, Mrs. Lee. She loves him very much. His name is Max." + +She showed Lily and Tom the mouse. He was not dirty. He was soft and clean. He had bright eyes and a pink nose. He squeaked softly. + +"Hello, Max. You are a very nice mouse. We are sorry we scared you. Do you want to play with us?" Lily asked. + +Max nodded and wiggled his whiskers. He liked Lily and Tom. They were not mean. They were kind. + +Lily and Tom were not scared anymore. They were curious. They wanted to learn more about Max. They asked their mom if they could take him to Mrs. Lee and say hello. + +Their mom agreed. She helped them put Max in a small box with some cheese and water. They carried the box to Mrs. Lee's house. She was very happy to see them and Max. She thanked them for finding him. He had escaped from his cage and she was worried. + +She invited them in and showed them her other fancy mice. They had different colors and ribbons. They were very cute and friendly. Lily and Tom played with them and gave them some of their worms and beetles. They had a lot of fun. + +They learned that mice were not scary. They were fancy and nice. They made new friends. They were very happy. +Tom and Lily are playing in the garden. They like to run and jump and laugh. They see a big tree with red apples. They want to pick some apples for a snack. + +"Look, Lily, there is a big apple up there. I can get it for you," Tom says. He climbs on the tree and reaches for the apple. But the branch is weak and it breaks. Tom falls to the ground with a thud. + +"Tom, are you okay?" Lily asks. She runs to him and hugs him. Tom feels pain in his arm and his head. He also feels a warm leak on his forehead. He starts to cry. + +"I'm sorry, Lily, I hurt myself. I have a leak on my head. It hurts a lot," Tom says. + +"Don't cry, Tom, I will help you. Let's go to Mom. She will make you feel better," Lily says. She helps Tom to stand up and they walk to the house. Mom sees them and runs to them. + +"Oh, Tom, what happened? You have a big leak on your head. And your arm looks swollen. You need a bandage and some ice. Come on, let's go inside," Mom says. She takes Tom and Lily to the bathroom and cleans Tom's wound. She puts a bandage on his head and a bag of ice on his arm. She gives him a kiss and a hug. + +"There, there, Tom, you will be okay. You are very brave. Lily, you are very kind. You helped your brother. I'm proud of you both," Mom says. + +"Thank you, Mom. You are the best. I love you," Tom says. + +"I love you too, Mom. And I love you, Tom. I'm sorry you fell from the tree. Next time, we will be more careful," Lily says. + +They all smile and hug. They go to the kitchen and have some apple juice and cookies. They feel warm and happy. They forget about the fall and the leak. They enjoy their snack and their family. +Tim and Sam like to play hockey. They have sticks and a ball. They play on the grass near their house. They have fun and laugh. + +One day, a big boy comes. He has a stick and a ball too. He says he wants to play hockey with them. Tim and Sam say yes. They think he is nice. + +But the big boy is not nice. He hits the ball very hard. He does not share. He does not let Tim and Sam touch the ball. He says he is the best. He says they are bad. + +Tim and Sam are sad and angry. They want to play too. They want to have fun. They tell the big boy to stop. They tell him to go away. + +The big boy does not listen. He laughs at them. He says they are too thin and weak. He says they cannot race him. He says he is faster and stronger. + +Tim and Sam are tired of the big boy. They decide to race him. They think they can beat him. They say they are ready. They say they will show him. + +The big boy agrees. He says he will race them to the tree. He says he will win. He says they will lose. + +They start to race. They run as fast as they can. They try to catch the big boy. But the big boy is too fast. He runs ahead of them. He reaches the tree first. He turns around and smiles. + +Tim and Sam are close behind. They do not see the big boy. They do not see the stick. They do not see the ball. They only see the tree. + +The big boy swings his stick. He hits the ball. He aims at Tim and Sam. He wants to hurt them. He wants to make them cry. + +The ball flies in the air. It hits Tim in the head. It hits Sam in the chest. They fall to the ground. They scream in pain. They bleed and cry. + +The big boy laughs. He says he won. He says they lost. He says they are stupid and slow. He says they are not good at hockey. He says they are not good at anything. + +He picks up his stick and his ball. He walks away. He does not help them. He does not say sorry. He does not care. + +Tim and Sam are alone. They are hurt and scared. They hug each other. They wish the big boy never came. They wish they never raced him. They wish they could play hockey again. They wish they could have fun again. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big oak tree with many leaves. They wanted to climb the tree and see the birds. + +"Can you help me, Ben?" Lily asked. She tried to reach a branch, but it was too high. + +"Sure, Lily. I will pull you up," Ben said. He grabbed Lily's hand and pulled hard. Lily felt a tug and moved up. + +"Thank you, Ben. You are strong," Lily said. She smiled and sat on the branch. She looked around and saw a nest with three eggs. + +"Wow, look at the eggs. They are blue and speckled," Ben said. He joined Lily on the branch. He was curious and wanted to touch the eggs. + +"Be careful, Ben. Don't touch the eggs. They belong to the birds," Lily said. She knew that the eggs were fragile and the birds would be angry. + +"But I just want to see them closer," Ben said. He reached out his hand and touched one of the eggs. Suddenly, he heard a loud squawk and felt a peck on his head. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben cried. He looked up and saw a big bird with a yellow beak and black feathers. It was the mother bird and she was not happy. + +"Ben, what did you do? You made the bird mad. We have to go," Lily said. She was scared and uncomfortable. She did not like the bird's noise and bite. + +"Sorry, Lily. I was just curious. Let's go," Ben said. He was sorry and uncomfortable too. He did not like the bird's noise and bite either. + +They slid down the branch and ran away from the tree. They learned a lesson. They should not touch the eggs that belong to the birds. They should respect the nature and the animals. They should be careful and listen to each other. +Lily liked to play with her model cars. She had many cars of different colors and sizes. She liked to make them go fast on the floor and pretend they were racing. Sometimes she made noises like vroom and beep. + +One day, Lily found a new car in her toy box. It was unusual. It was red and shiny, but it had a big button on the roof. Lily wondered what the button did. She pressed it and heard a voice. + +"Hello, I am a record car. You can talk to me and I will record your voice. Then you can press the button again and I will play it back. Do you want to try?" + +Lily was surprised and excited. She had never seen a car like this before. She decided to try it. She pressed the button and said, "Hi, I am Lily. I like cars. What is your name?" + +She pressed the button again and heard her own voice. She giggled. She liked the record car. She wanted to show it to her mom. + +She ran to the kitchen where her mom was making lunch. She held the car in her hand and said, "Mom, look what I found. It is a record car. It can talk to me and I can talk to it. Listen!" + +She pressed the button and played her voice. Her mom smiled and said, "Wow, that is a very unusual and fun car, Lily. Where did you get it?" + +Lily shrugged and said, "I don't know. It was in my toy box. Maybe it was a gift from someone. Can I keep it?" + +Her mom nodded and said, "Of course you can keep it, sweetie. It is yours. But remember to share it with your friends when they come over. They might like to play with it too." + +Lily agreed and hugged her mom. She was happy. She had a new and unusual car that could record her voice. She wondered what else she could say to it. She ran back to her room and played with the record car for a long time. +Lily and Max were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a new trail in the woods behind their house. They wanted to explore it, but their mom said no. She said the trail was terrible and dangerous, and they should never go there. + +But Lily and Max were curious and brave. They waited until their mom was busy, and then they sneaked out of the house. They ran to the trail and followed it into the woods. They saw many strange things, like big rocks, dark holes, and scary noises. They thought it was fun and exciting. + +"Look, Max, a cave!" Lily said, pointing to a big hole in the hill. "Let's go inside and see what's there." + +"No, Lily, that's a bad idea," Max said, feeling scared. "Mom said the trail was terrible and dangerous. Maybe there's something bad in the cave. Let's go back." + +But Lily didn't listen. She ran to the cave and went inside. Max followed her, because he didn't want to leave her alone. He wished he could remember the way back. + +Inside the cave, it was dark and cold. Lily and Max couldn't see anything. They heard a loud roar and felt a hot breath on their faces. They screamed and ran, but they didn't know where to go. They were lost and afraid. + +They wished they had listened to their mom. They wished they had never seen the terrible trail. They wished they could go home. +Sam and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill that looked like a mountain. They wanted to climb it. + +"Let's go to the mountain!" Sam said. + +"OK, but be careful!" Lily said. + +They ran to the hill and started to climb. They used their hands and feet and helped each other. They felt strong and brave. They reached the top and looked around. They saw the trees and the flowers and the sky. + +"Wow, it's so pretty!" Lily said. + +"Yes, it is!" Sam said. + +They saw a butterfly flying near them. It was yellow and black and had spots. They liked the butterfly. They wanted to catch it. + +"Look, a butterfly!" Sam said. + +"Let's catch it!" Lily said. + +They ran after the butterfly. They stretched their arms and tried to grab it. But the butterfly was fast and smart. It flew away from them. It went over the hill and down the other side. + +"Come back, butterfly!" Sam said. + +"Wait for us, butterfly!" Lily said. + +They followed the butterfly. They did not see the rocks and the holes on the hill. They tripped and fell. They rolled down the hill. They bumped and scraped and got dirty. They landed on the grass at the bottom. They were hurt and sad. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Sam said. + +"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Lily said. + +They hugged each other. They felt better. They saw the butterfly again. It was on a flower near them. It looked at them and fluttered its wings. + +"Sorry, butterfly!" Sam said. + +"We didn't mean to scare you!" Lily said. + +The butterfly flew to them. It landed on Sam's nose. It tickled him. He giggled. It flew to Lily's hair. It made her smile. They were happy. + +"Thank you, butterfly!" Sam said. + +"You are nice, butterfly!" Lily said. + +The butterfly flew away. It waved its wings. Sam and Lily waved their hands. They were friends. + +They got up and walked back to the hill. They climbed it again. They held each other tight. They were careful. They reached the top and looked around. They saw the park and the people and the sun. + +They saw their mom and dad. They waved to them. They were proud. + +"Look, we climbed the mountain!" Sam said. + +"Yes, we did!" Lily said. + +They ran to their mom and dad. They hugged them. They told them about the butterfly. They showed them their bumps and scrapes. They were brave. + +Mom and dad kissed them. They praised them. They gave them a snack and a drink. They were happy. + +They all sat on the grass and watched the sky. They saw the clouds and the birds and the stars. They saw the butterfly again. It flew by and said hello. They said hello back. They were friends. +Tom and Lily were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They gave him a name: Frosty. + +"Hello, Frosty!" Tom said. "You are our friend!" + +"Yes, you are!" Lily said. "We like you very much!" + +They hugged Frosty and smiled. + +But then the sun came out. It was very bright and warm. The snow started to melt. Frosty started to shrink. + +"Oh no!" Tom said. "Frosty is melting!" + +"We have to save him!" Lily said. "Let's move him to a shady place!" + +They tried to push Frosty, but he was too heavy. They only made him smaller and smaller. Soon, he was just a pile of snow with a hat, a scarf and a carrot. + +Tom and Lily felt very sad. They saw a stream of water running from Frosty to the road. + +"Frosty is gone!" Tom said. "He is dead!" + +"No, he is not!" Lily said. "He is still with us, in the water!" + +She pointed to the stream. "Look, he is waving to us!" + +Tom looked. He saw the hat, the scarf and the carrot floating on the water. They looked like they were moving. + +"Hello, Frosty!" Tom said. "You are still our friend!" + +"Yes, you are!" Lily said. "We still like you very much!" + +They waved back to Frosty and smiled. +Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to climb the tree and see what was up there. + +They climbed the tree carefully. They saw many birds and bugs. They heard a chirp-chirp sound. They looked around and saw a nest. The nest was open and had four eggs inside. + +"Wow, look at the eggs!" Sara said. "They are so pretty and colorful. Can we touch them?" + +"No, Sara, we can't touch them," Ben said. "They belong to the birds. The birds made the nest to keep the eggs warm and safe. If we touch them, we might hurt them or make the birds angry." + +"But I want to see them closer," Sara said. "Maybe we can take one and show it to mom and dad." + +"That's not a good idea, Sara," Ben said. "The eggs are not toys. They are baby birds. They need their mom and dad to feed them and teach them how to fly. If we take one, we will make the birds sad and the baby bird lonely. How would you feel if someone took you away from mom and dad?" + +Sara thought for a moment. She realized that Ben was right. She did not want to make the birds sad or the baby bird lonely. She did not want to be taken away from mom and dad. She said sorry to Ben and to the birds. + +"Sorry, Ben, you are right. We should not touch the eggs. Sorry, birds, we did not mean to bother you. We will leave you alone now." + +They climbed down the tree and went back to their mom and dad. They told them what they saw and what they learned. Mom and dad were proud of them for being kind and respectful to the birds and their nest. + +The moral of the story is: We should not take or touch things that do not belong to us. We should respect the lives and feelings of other animals. We should be grateful for our own family and friends. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. Sara can make big towers with blocks. Ben can make fast cars with wheels. They teach each other how to play. + +One day, they see a poster. It says: "Block Contest. Make the best tower. Win a prize." Sara and Ben want to win the prize. They think it is a toy or a book. They decide to enter the contest. + +They go to the contest place. There are many children and many blocks. Sara and Ben find a spot. They start to build their tower. They use many blocks. They make it tall and strong. They are happy. + +But then, they see another tower. It is bigger and prettier than theirs. It has colors and shapes. Sara and Ben feel sad. They think their tower is not good enough. They think they will not win the prize. + +They look at each other. They remember how they teach each other how to play. They remember how they have fun. They smile. They say: + +"Sara: It is okay, Ben. We did our best. We still like our tower. + +Ben: You are right, Sara. We still have each other. We are still friends. + +Sara and Ben hug. They are proud of their tower. They are proud of their friendship. They do not care about the prize. They have something better. They have each other. +Jill liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls and they had many clothes. She liked to dress them up and make them talk. She did not like to clean her room. She left her dolls and clothes everywhere. + +One day, her mom said, "Jill, you have to clean your room. It is very messy. If you do not clean your room, you cannot go to the park with your friends." Jill did not want to clean her room. She wanted to go to the park. She said, "OK, mom, I will clean my room." But she did not. + +She hid her dolls and clothes under her bed and in her closet. She made her bed and put some books on her desk. She thought her mom would not see the mess. She said, "Mom, I cleaned my room. Can I go to the park now?" Her mom said, "Let me see your room first." + +Her mom went to her room and looked around. She saw the books on the desk and the bed made. She said, "Good job, Jill. But what is this?" She lifted the bed sheet and saw the dolls and clothes under the bed. She opened the closet and saw more dolls and clothes. She said, "Jill, you did not clean your room. You just hid your mess. This is not good. You lied to me. You cannot go to the park. You have to stay in your room and clean it for real." + +Jill felt very embarrassed. She knew her mom was angry and sad. She knew she did a bad thing. She wished she had cleaned her room. She cried and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I will clean my room. Please don't be mad at me." Her mom said, "I'm not mad at you, Jill. I'm disappointed. You have to learn to be honest and responsible. You can go to the park another day, but not today. You have to stay in your room and clean it. And no more playing with your dolls until you do." Jill nodded and said, "OK, mom." She started to clean her room, but she felt very sad. She missed her friends and her dolls. She wished she had a good ending. +Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls in the park. One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has orange hair and a big smile. He says hello to Tim and Sam. + +"Hi, I'm Ben. Can I play with you?" he asks. + +Tim and Sam look at each other. They do not want to play with Ben. They think he is strange and different. They ignore him and run away. + +"Hey, wait for me!" Ben calls. He follows them, but they do not stop. + +Tim and Sam find a big slide. They take turns to slide down. They laugh and have fun. Ben comes to the slide too. He wants to join them. + +"Can I slide with you?" he asks. + +Tim and Sam shake their heads. They ignore him and slide faster. + +"Please, let me try!" Ben begs. He feels sad and lonely. + +Tim and Sam do not care. They ignore him and slide more. + +Ben sees a lady sitting on a bench. She is his neighbor. She knows his name and his mom. She smiles at him. + +"Hello, Ben. Are you having fun?" she asks. + +Ben runs to her. He hugs her and tells her everything. + +"Tim and Sam do not want to play with me. They ignore me. They are mean," he says. + +The lady hugs him back. She feels sorry for him. + +"That's not nice of them. You are a good boy. You deserve to have friends. Do you want to play with me?" she asks. + +Ben nods. He smiles again. + +"Yes, please. You are nice. You are my friend," he says. + +The lady and Ben play with a ball. They throw and catch it. They laugh and have fun. Tim and Sam see them. They feel curious and jealous. + +"Who is that lady?" Tim asks. + +"I don't know. She is Ben's neighbor," Sam says. + +"Can we play with them?" Tim asks. + +Sam shrugs. He does not know. + +They walk to the lady and Ben. They say hello. + +"Hi, we are Tim and Sam. Can we play with you?" they ask. + +The lady and Ben look at them. They remember how they ignored Ben. They do not want to play with them. They ignore them and play more. + +"Sorry, we are busy. We have fun. We are friends," they say. + +Tim and Sam feel sad and sorry. They realize they were wrong. They wish they were nice to Ben. They walk away. They learn a lesson. +Anna liked to eat soup with a spoon. She had a big spoon that was shiny and made a loud noise when she hit it on the table. She liked to make noise and see the soup splash. Mommy did not like that. She said, "Anna, stop that. You will drop your spoon and make a mess. Be careful with your soup." + +One day, Anna was eating soup with her spoon. She saw a bird outside the window. It was red and yellow and had a long tail. It was very pretty. Anna wanted to see it better. She leaned over the table and reached for the window. She forgot about her spoon. She dropped it in her soup. The soup flew up and landed on her face and clothes. It was hot and wet and sticky. Anna cried. She was not safe. + +Mommy heard Anna cry. She ran to the kitchen. She saw Anna and the soup. She was worried. She said, "Oh, Anna, what happened? Are you hurt?" She picked up Anna and hugged her. She wiped her face and clothes with a towel. She said, "It's okay, Anna. It was an accident. You are safe now. But next time, please be careful with your spoon and your soup. And look at the bird after you finish eating." Anna nodded. She said, "I'm sorry, Mommy. I love you." Mommy said, "I love you too, Anna." She kissed her and gave her a new spoon. Anna smiled. She finished her soup and looked at the bird. It was still pretty. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the park. The box has many things inside. They see books, clothes, toys, and a passport. + +"What is this?" Anna asks, holding the passport. + +"It is a paper that lets you go to other places," Ben says. "My mom has one. She went to a place with water and fish." + +"Wow, that sounds fun," Anna says. "Can we go too?" + +Ben shakes his head. "No, we need a plane to go. Planes are very expensive. We are poor. We do not have money for planes." + +Anna feels sad. She wants to see water and fish. She has an idea. She looks at the box. She sees a big blue blanket. She takes the blanket and covers the box. + +"Look, Ben," she says. "Now the box is a plane. We can pretend to go to the water and fish place." + +Ben smiles. He likes to pretend. He gets inside the box with Anna. They close the flap. + +"Ready?" Anna asks. + +"Ready," Ben says. + +They make plane noises. They pretend to fly. They pretend to see clouds and birds. They pretend to land near the water. They get out of the box. They see a pond. They see ducks and frogs. + +"Look, Ben," Anna says. "There is water and fish here." + +Ben sees a fish. He wants to catch it. He runs to the pond. He dives into the water. He splashes and laughs. + +Anna laughs too. She joins him. They have fun. They forget they are poor. They are happy. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, Anna invites Ben to her house. She says, "Do you want to watch a movie with me? I have a big TV and many movies." + +Ben says, "Yes, I want to watch a movie with you. What movie do you have?" + +Anna says, "I have a movie about a princess and a dragon. It is very fun and exciting. Come, I will show you." + +They go to Anna's living room. Ben sees the big TV and the many movies. He thinks, "Wow, Anna is very rich. She has so many things. I wish I had so many things too." + +They sit on the sofa and watch the movie. They laugh and clap when the princess escapes from the dragon. They eat popcorn and drink juice. They have a good time. + +After the movie, Ben says, "Thank you, Anna. That was a very good movie. I had fun with you." + +Anna says, "You're welcome, Ben. I'm glad you liked it. You are my friend. Do you want to play some more?" + +Ben says, "Yes, I want to play some more. What do you want to play?" + +Anna says, "Let's play pretend. We can be the princess and the dragon. I will be the princess and you will be the dragon. You have to chase me and I have to run away." + +Ben says, "OK, that sounds fun. Let's play pretend." + +They run around the house and pretend to be the princess and the dragon. They make loud noises and have fun. They forget about the time. + +Soon, it is dark outside. Anna's mom comes and says, "Anna, it is time for bed. You have to say goodbye to Ben. He has to go home too." + +Anna says, "Oh, no. I don't want to go to bed. I want to play more with Ben." + +Ben says, "Me too. I don't want to go home. I want to stay with Anna." + +Anna's mom says, "I'm sorry, but you have to. It is late and you are both tired. You can play again tomorrow. Now, give each other a hug and say goodnight." + +Anna and Ben hug each other and say goodnight. They say, "See you tomorrow. You are my friend." + +Anna's mom takes Ben to the door and calls his mom. She says, "Ben is ready to go home. He had a good time with Anna. They watched a movie and played pretend." + +Ben's mom comes and picks him up. She says, "Thank you, Anna's mom. Ben had a good time too. He likes Anna. She is his friend." + +Ben's mom takes him to the car and drives him home. Ben is sleepy. He says, "Mom, can we watch a movie tomorrow?" + +Ben's mom says, "Maybe. If you wake up early and do your chores. What movie do you want to watch?" + +Ben says, "I want to watch the movie about the princess and the dragon. It is very fun and exciting. Anna has it. She is very rich. She has a big TV and many movies." + +Ben's mom says, "I see. Well, maybe we can borrow it from Anna. Or we can watch another movie. We have some movies too. We are not very rich, but we have enough. We have each other. We are happy." + +Ben says, "Yes, we are happy. I love you, mom." + +Ben's mom says, "I love you too, Ben." + +They get home and go to bed. Ben dreams of the princess and the dragon. He smiles in his sleep. He is happy. +Ben and Lily went to the big shop with Mom. They liked to look at all the things in the shop. Mom gave them a cart to push. They put some food and toys in the cart. + +"Can we get some sweet things too?" Lily asked Mom. + +"Only one sweet thing each," Mom said. "You have to choose." + +Ben and Lily looked at the sweet things. There were cookies, candy, cake, and ice cream. They all looked good. + +"I want ice cream," Ben said. He took a box of ice cream and put it in the cart. + +"I want cake," Lily said. She took a slice of cake and put it in the cart. + +They were happy with their sweet things. They pushed the cart to the counter. Mom paid for the things. They went to the car. + +"Can we eat our sweet things now?" Ben asked Mom. + +"Not now," Mom said. "We have to eat lunch first. Then you can have your sweet things." + +Ben and Lily nodded. They knew they had to wait. They put their sweet things in a bag. They managed to carry the bag to the car. They were excited to eat their sweet things later. +Sam and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks. Mom said, "Do you want to buy some bread to feed the ducks?" Sam and Lily nodded and smiled. + +Mom gave them some coins and they ran to the shop. They bought a loaf of bread and tore it into small pieces. They came back to the pond and threw the bread to the ducks. The ducks quacked and ate the bread. Sam and Lily laughed. + +Then they saw a man with a sail. He had a small boat with a sail on it. He put the boat in the pond and made it go with a remote. The boat moved fast and changed directions. The sail was red and blue and had a funny face on it. Sam and Lily liked the sail. They asked Mom, "Can we play with the sail?" + +Mom said, "Let's ask the man if he can share his sail with you." They went to the man and said, "Hello, we like your sail. Can we play with it?" The man was kind and said, "Sure, you can play with it. But be careful, don't make it crash." + +He gave them the remote and showed them how to use it. Sam and Lily took turns to control the boat. They made it go left and right, up and down. They had fun with the sail. The ducks watched them and quacked. The man smiled and said, "You are good at sailing. Do you want to keep the sail?" + +Sam and Lily looked at Mom. Mom said, "That's very nice of you, but we can't keep the sail. We have to go home soon. Thank you for letting us play with it." They gave the remote back to the man and said, "Thank you, we had fun with the sail. Bye-bye." The man said, "You're welcome. Bye-bye." + +Sam and Lily waved to the man and the ducks. They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom. We had a great day at the park." Mom said, "I love you too, Sam and Lily. You are my sweet kids." They walked home, happy and tired. +Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They also liked to look for things on the ground. Sometimes they found leaves, or stones, or feathers. + +One day, they found a big acorn. It was brown and shiny and had a little hat. Sara picked it up and showed it to Ben. + +"Look, Ben, I found an acorn!" she said. + +"Wow, Sara, that's a brilliant acorn!" Ben said. "Can I see it?" + +Sara nodded and gave the acorn to Ben. He held it in his hand and looked at it closely. + +"It's so smooth and round," he said. "I wonder what's inside." + +He tried to open the acorn, but it was too hard. He pulled and twisted, but it didn't budge. + +"Maybe we need something to help us," Sara said. "Like a tool." + +She looked around and saw a big stick. She ran to get it and brought it back to Ben. + +"Here, Ben, use this stick," she said. "Maybe you can zip the acorn open with it." + +Ben took the stick and tapped the acorn with it. Nothing happened. He tapped harder and harder, until he hit the acorn with all his strength. + +CRACK! + +The acorn split open and something flew out of it. It was a small, furry creature with a long tail and a black mask. It was a squirrel! + +The squirrel was very scared and angry. It had been sleeping inside the acorn, and now it was awake and out in the open. It saw Ben and Sara and made a loud noise. + +"SQUEAK!" it said. + +Ben and Sara were very surprised and scared too. They dropped the stick and the acorn and ran away. + +The squirrel chased them for a while, then stopped and went back to the acorn. It picked up the two halves and tried to put them back together. But it was too late. The acorn was broken and the squirrel had no home. + +The squirrel sighed and looked for another acorn. It hoped it would find one that was big and shiny and had a little hat. And it hoped that no one would try to zip it open again. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and chase each other. They saw a cricket on the grass. It was brown and shiny and made a loud noise. + +"Look, a cricket!" Tom said. "Let's catch it and keep it as a pet." + +Lily nodded. She liked animals. She ran after the cricket and tried to grab it with her hand. But the cricket was fast and jumped away. + +"Wait for me!" Tom said. He followed Lily and the cricket. They ran across the garden, past the flowers and the trees and the pond. + +They came to a big pile of dirt. It was dirty and smelly and had worms and bugs in it. The cricket jumped into the dirt and hid. + +"Ha, I see it!" Tom said. He reached into the dirt and felt the cricket. He pulled it out and held it in his hand. It was dirty and wet and squirmed. + +"Yuck, it's dirty!" Lily said. She wrinkled her nose. "I don't want it as a pet anymore. Let's throw it away." + +Tom shook his head. He liked the cricket. He wanted to keep it. He put it in his pocket. + +"No, it's mine!" he said. "I caught it. It's my pet. I will name it Chirpy." + +Lily was angry. She wanted to share the cricket. She did not like Tom being selfish. She pushed Tom and tried to take the cricket from his pocket. + +"Give it to me!" she said. "It's not fair. You have to share." + +Tom pushed Lily back. He did not want to share the cricket. He wanted to keep it for himself. He ran away from Lily. + +"Go away!" he said. "It's my cricket. You can't have it." + +Lily ran after Tom. She was crying. She wanted to play with the cricket. She wanted to be friends with Tom. She did not understand why he was so mean. + +They ran and ran and ran. They did not see where they were going. They did not see the road. They did not see the car. They did not hear the horn. + +The car hit them. They fell to the ground. They did not get up. They did not move. They did not breathe. + +The cricket crawled out of Tom's pocket. It was still alive. It jumped away and disappeared. + +The end. +Ben likes to play with his toy tank. He makes it go vroom vroom on the floor and pretends it shoots at bad guys. He likes to watch shows about tanks on TV and read books about tanks with his dad. He wants to be a tank driver when he grows up. + +One night, Ben has a dream about tanks. He is in a big tank with his dad and they are driving through a forest. They see some bad guys hiding behind the trees and they shoot at them with their tank. The bad guys run away and Ben and his dad cheer. They are the best tank team ever. + +But then, Ben hears a loud noise. It is another tank, a bigger and meaner one. It is red and black and has a scary face on it. It is the bad guys' tank and it is angry. It shoots at Ben and his dad's tank and hits it. Ben and his dad's tank starts to smoke and shake. Ben is scared and sad. He does not want his tank to break. + +He wakes up and sees his mom. She is holding him and telling him it is okay. It was just a dream, she says. She hugs him and kisses him and tells him she loves him. Ben feels better and hugs her back. He tells her about his dream and she listens. She says he is very brave and smart. She says he can play with his toy tank in the morning. + +Ben smiles and cuddles with his mom. He still likes tanks, but he likes his mom more. He closes his eyes and falls asleep. He hopes he will have a better dream. +Tom and Lily were playing with their toy trucks in the yard. They had a big pile of sand and some rocks to load on their trucks. Tom had a red truck and Lily had a blue one. + +"Look, I can load more sand than you!" Tom said, scooping up a lot of sand with his shovel. He dumped it on his truck, making it very heavy. + +"That's not fair, Tom! You are taking too much sand!" Lily said, frowning. She only had a little sand on her truck. She wanted to load more, but Tom was being selfish. + +"No, I'm not! It's my sand, I found it first!" Tom said, grabbing another shovel of sand. He did not care about Lily's feelings. He only wanted to have the biggest load. + +Lily felt sad and angry. She did not like playing with Tom anymore. She had an idea. She waited until Tom was not looking, and then she took a big rock from the pile. She walked over to Tom's truck and put the rock on it. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" Tom shouted, seeing Lily. He tried to move his truck, but it was too heavy. The rock was too big for his truck. It made his truck tip over and spill all the sand. + +"Ha, ha! Now you have no sand!" Lily said, laughing. She felt happy. She had taught Tom a lesson. + +Tom felt mad and sad. He had lost all his sand. He realized he had been selfish and mean to Lily. He wished he had shared the sand with her. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. Can we be friends again?" Tom said, looking at Lily. + +Lily looked at Tom. She saw he was sorry. She decided to forgive him. + +"Okay, Tom. I'm sorry, too. I should not have put the rock on your truck. Can we share the sand and the rocks?" Lily said, smiling. + +"Sure, Lily. Let's share. We can have more fun that way." Tom said, smiling back. + +They hugged and made up. They loaded their trucks with sand and rocks, but not too much. They measured their loads with a ruler. They made sure they had the same amount of inches. They played happily together. They learned to be kind and not selfish. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big white dog. The dog is friendly. He wags his tail and licks their faces. + +"Hello, doggy!" Tom says. "You are so soft and nice!" + +"Can we pet you?" Sue asks. "You are so cute and fun!" + +The dog nods and barks. He likes Tom and Sue. They pet him and hug him. They are happy. + +But then, a boy comes. He is mean. He has a stick. He wants to joke with the dog. He throws the stick at the dog. The dog is scared. He yelps and runs away. + +"Hey, stop that!" Tom shouts. "That is not a joke! That is mean!" + +"Yeah, leave the dog alone!" Sue says. "He is not your toy! He is a friend!" + +The boy laughs. He does not care. He throws the stick again. The dog is fearful. He hides behind a tree. + +Tom and Sue are angry. They run to the dog. They comfort him. They tell him they are sorry. They tell him they love him. + +The dog is grateful. He wags his tail and licks their faces. He trusts them. He is happy. + +The boy is bored. He sees no fun. He walks away. He is alone. + +Tom and Sue learn a lesson. They learn that jokes should be kind, not cruel. They learn that animals have feelings, too. They learn that friendship is better than meanness. They are good friends. They are good people. +Lily and Ben like to play music. They have a band with their toys. Lily plays the drum and Ben plays the guitar. They sing songs and have fun. + +One day, they want to play a new song. They look at a book with pictures and words. They try to read the words, but they are hard. They struggle to say them. They do not know what they mean. + +They ask their mom for help. Mom comes and looks at the book. She smiles and says, "This is a song in another language. It is called Spanish. It has different words and sounds than English. Do you want to learn some Spanish words?" + +Lily and Ben nod. They want to learn new things. Mom teaches them some Spanish words. She says them slowly and repeats them. Lily and Ben try to say them too. They make mistakes, but they do not give up. They practice and get better. + +They learn how to say hello, goodbye, thank you, and some colors and animals in Spanish. They also learn how to say the name of their song. It is called "La Bamba". They are happy and proud. They play their song with their band. They sing in Spanish and English. They have a mild voice, but a loud heart. Mom claps and cheers. She is proud of them too. +Once upon a time, there was a girl called Susan. Every day, Susan's parents would tell her to wash her hands before meals. One day, Susan's parents gave her a surprise. It was a shiny sword! Susan was so happy that she ran around swinging it, giggling as she pretended to fight an imaginary dragon. + +But soon, Susan realized the sword was dirty! She quickly ran to find her parents and asked for help. Her mom smiled, pointed her to the sink and said, "Don't worry, Susan. Just wash your sword, and then you can use it again." + +So Susan grabbed a cloth, slipped off the sword's handle and put it in the sink. She poured some soap on it and rubbed it all over the blade. To her amazement, the sword sparkled like new! She finished washing the blade, dried it with a clean cloth, and reattached the handle. + +Now that her sword was clean, Susan ran to the kitchen. She pulled up a chair and carefully placed the sword near the table. Then she reached for a jar of sweet honey. Smiling, she put a spoonful of honey on her sword, and enjoyed the most delicious treat. + +The end. +Molly and Sophie were best friends. Every day they played together in the garden. One day, Sophie received a special invitation. She was so excited! + +Molly saw the invitation and she couldn't believe her eyes. + +Molly asked, "What is it?" + +"It's a special invitation," Sophie answered. "I get to go to a very special party!" + +Molly was a bit nosy and asked, "Can I come too?" + +But Sophie said, "No, Molly. I'm sorry, this invitation is just for me. You can still come to the garden and play." + +Molly was sad and her bottom lip quivered. She thought about the invitation and then she had an idea. She grabbed Sophie's hand and said, "Let's both fall over and pretend that you got hurt and now you can't go to the party!" + +Sophie smiled and said, "That's a great idea, Molly!" + +So the two girls fell on the ground and pretended that Sophie had hurt her leg. Soon all of their friends had gathered around to ask what happened. + +Sophie said, "I was so excited about the invitation, but now I can't go to the party because I hurt my leg." + +Everyone was so sad. But soon, they all started to laugh. It was just a trick! Sophie had tricked them all. + +Molly +Once upon a time there was a jolly little girl called Lucy. Lucy had never seen a costume before, but she had heard about them. She had been learning about costumes at her preschool and was very excited to see one. She asked her mom what a costume was. + +"A costume is something special that you wear for a special occasion," her mom said. + +"Can I try one?" asked Lucy excitedly. + +"Of course," said her mom, smiling. + +They went to the costume store and Lucy picked out a bright pink dress with sparkly wings. She loved it! + +When they got home, Lucy tried on the costume and twirled around in it. She was so happy! + +"Thank you Mommy!" said Lucy. + +"You're welcome," said her mom, smiling. + +Lucy had learned a lot about costumes that day and was very excited to wear her costume whenever she could. She was so jolly! +Once there were two children, Jimmy and Lilly. Lilly was the older of the two, so she was always bossing Jimmy about. One day Lilly said to Jimmy, "Let's put on our hats and go to the long park!" + +Jimmy was very excited and he quickly put on his hat. Grandma said, "Wait a moment children. Before you go you should put on your jackets too." So Jimmy and Lilly put on their jackets and went to the park. + +At the park they played on the swings and slides, they had a long walk in the park, and they laughed a lot. All the while Lilly was still bossing Jimmy about, telling him what to do. + +Finally it was time to go home, but Jimmy didn't want to leave. When Lilly began to boss him around again, Jimmy said, "Lilly, I don't have to do everything you say. You don't have to be bossy all the time." + +Lilly felt ashamed and said to Jimmy, "You're right. Let's go back to the park tomorrow, but this time we can play together without fighting - okay?" + +Jimmy smiled and said, "Okay". + +The moral of this story is that it's important to share and to play together without fighting. +Once upon a time, there was a mummy and a daddy who had a messy house. They looked around the house and saw lots of toys and things lying around. Mummy said to daddy that they needed to leave the house and go for a walk. Daddy said okay, so they got their things and put on their shoes. + +But when they went to leave, mummy noticed something shiny on the floor. It was a knife! Daddy said they had to leave the knife where it was and went off with mummy to go on their walk. + +When they got back home, the house was still messy. But mummy smiled, because the knife was gone! They had cleaned it up before they left. + +The end! +Once upon a time, Lucy was walking along a path in the park when she saw the most impressive sunset ever. She said to herself, "Wow, that looks so cool!" + +Suddenly, she noticed a strange noise coming from nearby. She looked around and saw that it was coming from a broken toy on the ground. She picked it up and said, "Why don't we try and repair this?" + +Lucy was not sure how to make the toy better, so she asked some people walking by if they knew how. One person said, "Maybe if you open it up, you can fix it." + +So Lucy took a screwdriver and opened up the broken toy. She found some loose wires and put them back together. Then she put everything in place, turned the toy on and it worked perfectly! + +Lucy smiled and said, "That was impressive work!"
