But it was very difficult. Tommy and Lily did not listen. They did not stop. + +Mom felt very sad. She did not like to see them fight. She did not like to hear them scream. She wished they would be nice to each other. She wished they would be nice to her. + +She had an idea. She went to their room and brought some of their clothes. She showed them to Tommy and Lily. + +"Look," she said. "These are your clothes. They are for playing. They are very colorful and soft. You can dress up with them. You can have fun with them. Why don't you try them?" + +Tommy and Lily stopped screaming. They looked at their clothes. They saw that they were very nice. They saw that they had many choices.

They used crayons to draw windows and doors on the box. They also found some old clothes and blankets to make curtains and rugs. + +"This is our palace," Tom said. "We are the king and the queen." + +Mia nodded. "Yes, we are. And this is our gray cat, Fluffy. He is the prince." + +They had fun pretending to live in the palace. They had tea parties, read stories, and sang songs. Fluffy also liked the palace. He curled up on a blanket and purred. + +But then, Tom's big brother, Ben, came home from school. He saw the box in the yard and frowned. He did not like Tom and Mia playing with his box. He wanted to use it for something else. + +"Hey, what are you doing with my box?" Ben shouted. He ran to the yard and grabbed the box. He tried to move it away from Tom and Mia. + +"Stop, Ben, stop!" Tom cried. "This is our palace. You can't take it." + +Mia also cried. "Please, Ben, please. We worked hard to make it. It's our palace." + +But Ben did not listen. He was stronger than Tom and Mia. He moved the box to the other side of the yard. He ripped off the crayons and the clothes and the blankets. He threw them on the ground. + +"There, now it's my box again," Ben said. He smiled wickedly. "And you can't play with it anymore." + +Tom and Mia were very sad. They looked at their ruined palace. They looked at Fluffy, who was also sad. They hugged each other and cried. + +"Ben is mean," Tom said. "He is not our friend." + +Mia nodded. "He is not. He is a bully. He does not know how to share." + +They decided to go inside and tell their mom what Ben did. They hoped their mom would make Ben say sorry and give them back their box. They wanted to make their palace again. They wanted to play with Fluffy. They wanted to be happy. +Anna liked to play hide and seek with her big brother Tom. She was good at finding places to hide, but Tom was good at finding her. One day, she had a new idea. She ran to her room and opened the closet. She saw a big box with a hole in it. She crawled inside the box and pulled the lid over her. She was very quiet and patient. She waited for Tom to come and look for her. + +Tom looked everywhere for Anna. He checked under the bed, behind the curtains, in the bathroom, in the kitchen, but he could not find her. He started to get worried. He called her name, but she did not answer. He went back to her room and looked again. He saw the closet and opened it. He saw a lot of clothes and toys, but no Anna. He was about to close the closet, when he heard a giggle. + +He moved the clothes and toys and saw the box. He lifted the lid and saw Anna's smiling face. She said, "Surprise! You did not find me!" Tom laughed and said, "You are very clever, Anna. You vanished in the box. How did you do that?" Anna said, "It was easy. I just crawled in and waited. It was fun." Tom said, "It was fun for you, but not for me. I was scared. I thought you were gone." Anna said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I did not mean to scare you. I just wanted to play." Tom said, "It's okay, Anna. I love you. Do you want to play again?" Anna said, "Yes, please. But this time, you hide and I seek." Tom said, "Okay, deal. But no more boxes, okay?" Anna said, "Okay, no more boxes. Let's go." They hugged and ran out of the closet. They played hide and seek until their mom called them for dinner. They had a lot of fun. +Tim and Lily were playing in the yard. They had a big box of tools that they liked to use. They had hammers, saws, screws, nails, and more. They wanted to make something fun with the tools. + +"Let's make a car!" Tim said. He took a hammer and a nail and started to hit a piece of wood. + +"OK!" Lily said. She took a saw and started to cut another piece of wood. + +They worked hard for a long time. They used many tools and many pieces of wood. They made four wheels, a seat, a steering wheel, and a roof. They put them all together with screws and nails. + +"Look at our car!" Tim said. He was very proud. "It is perfect!" + +Lily nodded. She was very happy. "It is perfect!" She said. "Let's go for a ride!" + +They climbed on the seat and held the steering wheel. They pretended to drive around the yard. They made car noises with their mouths. They had a lot of fun. + +But then they saw a problem. The car was too big for the gate. They could not get out of the yard. + +"Oh no!" Tim said. "How can we get out?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She had an idea. She took a tool from the box. It was a rope. + +"I know!" She said. "We can pull the car with the rope!" + +She tied one end of the rope to the car and the other end to the gate. She asked Tim to help her. + +"Ready?" She said. + +"Ready!" Tim said. + +They pulled the rope with all their strength. The car moved slowly. It went closer and closer to the gate. + +They pulled and pulled until the car was out of the yard. They cheered and clapped. + +"We did it!" Tim said. + +"We did it!" Lily said. + +They got back on the car and drove away. They were very happy. They had made a perfect car with their tools.

His mom said no, it was too far and too dangerous. She said he could only look at the rainbow from the window. + +Sam was sad. He wanted to see the rainbow up close. He thought maybe there was something special at the end of the rainbow, like a pot of gold or a magic wand. He decided to sneak out of the house when his mom was not looking. He took his favorite car, a red one, and ran to the street. He pushed his car as fast as he could, trying to catch the rainbow. + +But he did not see the big truck that was coming his way.

He finished his toast and asked for another one. He thought Nutella was incredible. He was very happy. He gave his mom a big hug and said, "I love you, mom. And I love Nutella!" +Lily liked to roll on the grass with her dog, Spot. They played fetch and tug and chase. Lily laughed and Spot barked. They had so much fun. + +One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, it's time for your haircut. You have too much hair in your eyes. Come on, let's go to the salon." + +Lily did not want to go. She liked her hair long and curly. She did not like the scissors and the comb. She said, "No, mom, no haircut. I want to play with Spot." + +Spot heard Lily and ran to her. He licked her face and wagged his tail. He was enthusiastic. He liked to go to the salon. He liked the groomer and the treats. He said, "Woof, woof, Lily, let's go. Haircut is fun. You will look pretty. I will look handsome. Woof, woof." + +Lily looked at Spot and smiled. He was her best friend. He always made her happy. She said, "Okay, Spot, okay. I will go with you. Maybe haircut is not so bad. Maybe I will look pretty. Maybe you will look handsome. Let's go." + +Lily and Spot went to the salon with Lily's mom. They got their haircuts and their treats. They looked at each other and liked what they saw. They said, "Wow, wow, we look good. We look good." + +They rolled on the grass and played some more. They had so much fun. +Sara and Ben were playing with their new toys. Sara had a doll with long hair and a dress. Ben had a car with wheels and a horn. They liked their toys very much. + +But then, Sara saw Ben's car and wanted to play with it. She said, "Give me your car, Ben. It is shiny and fast. I want to try it." + +Ben said, "No, Sara. This is my car. You have your doll. Go play with your doll." + +Sara got angry and grabbed Ben's car. Ben tried to pull it back, but Sara was stronger. She ran away with the car and laughed. + +Ben was sad and chased Sara. He said, "Give me back my car, Sara. You are mean. You spoil my fun." + +Sara did not listen. She kept running with the car. But she did not see the rock on the ground. She tripped over the rock and fell down. The car flew out of her hands and hit the wall. The car broke into pieces. The wheels came off and the horn stopped working. The car was fragile and could not take the hit. + +Sara and Ben both cried. They looked at the broken car and felt sorry. They wished they had not fought over the car. They wished they had shared their toys and played nicely. + +They hugged each other and said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I'm sorry, Sara. I was selfish and rude. I should have let you play with my toy." + +They picked up the pieces of the car and the doll. They went to their mom and asked her to fix the car. Mom said, "I will try to fix the car, but it might not work as before. You should be careful with your toys. They can break easily. You should also be kind to each other. Sharing is caring." + +Sara and Ben nodded and said, "We will, mom. We learned our lesson. We love each other and our toys." +Lena and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with many leaves. The leaves are green and lively. They want to climb the tree. + +"Can we climb the tree?" Lena asks Ben. + +"Yes, we can. But be careful. The tree is high and the branches are thin." Ben says. + +They climb the tree. They feel happy and brave. They see the sky and the birds. They spread their arms and pretend to fly. + +"Look, I am a bird!" Lena says. + +"Me too!" Ben says. + +They laugh and sing. But then, a branch breaks. Lena and Ben fall from the tree. They fall on the grass. They are not hurt, but they are scared and sad. + +"Ouch, that hurts!" Lena says. + +"I'm sorry, Lena. Are you okay?" Ben says. + +"Yes, I'm okay. But the tree is not. We broke the branch." Lena says. + +They look at the tree. The branch is on the ground. The leaves are not lively anymore. They are brown and dry. + +They feel sorry for the tree. They hug the tree and say sorry. + +"Sorry, tree. We did not mean to hurt you. We like you and your leaves." Lena says. + +"Sorry, tree. We will not climb you again. We will be gentle and kind." Ben says. + +The tree does not say anything. But it feels their love and forgiveness. It gives them a gentle breeze and a shade. Lena and Ben smile and thank the tree. They sit under the tree and read a book. They are friends with the tree. +Lily was very tired. She had a big day at the park with her mom and dad. She played on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. She saw many birds, dogs and flowers. She had a lot of fun, but now she wanted to go home and sleep. + +She yawned and rubbed her eyes. "Mom, dad, can we go home now?" she asked. + +"Sure, sweetie, we can go home," mom said. "But first, we have to stop by the doctor's office. Remember, you hurt your arm yesterday when you fell off your bike?" + +Lily nodded. She remembered the pain and the bandage. She was scared of the doctor. She did not like the needles and the machines. She hugged her teddy bear and hoped it would not hurt too much. + +They arrived at the doctor's office and waited for their turn. Lily saw other kids and adults. Some of them looked happy, some of them looked sad. Some of them had casts, some of them had crutches. Lily wondered what was wrong with them. + +"Hello, Lily, I'm Dr. Lee," a kind voice said. "I'm here to check your arm and see how it's healing. Don't worry, it won't hurt at all. I just need to take a picture of your bones with this special machine. It's called an x-ray. It can see through your skin and show me if your arm is broken or not." + +Lily looked at the machine. It was big and gray. It had a screen and a button. Dr. Lee smiled and put a big apron on Lily. He said it was to protect her from the x-rays. He asked Lily to put her arm on a table and stay still. He went behind a glass window and pressed the button. Lily heard a beep and saw a flash. + +"Good job, Lily, you did great!" Dr. Lee said. He came back and showed Lily the picture on the screen. It looked like a skeleton. Lily saw her arm and her fingers. She saw a thin line on her bone. Dr. Lee said it was a small crack, but it was healing well. He said she only needed to keep the bandage for a few more days. + +Lily felt relieved and happy. She thanked Dr. Lee and gave him a high five. He gave her a sticker and a lollipop. He said she was a brave and good girl. Lily smiled and hugged her mom and dad. She was ready to go home and sleep. She yawned again and closed her eyes. She dreamed of the park and the x-ray. +Tim and Lily were walking with Mom in the park. They saw a vendor with a big cart. The vendor had many things to sell: balloons, hats, toys, and snacks. Tim and Lily wanted to see what he had. + +"Can we go, Mom?" Tim asked. + +"Sure, but stay close to me," Mom said. + +They went to the vendor and looked at his things. Tim saw a red balloon with a smiley face. He liked it very much. He asked the vendor how much it was. + +"Only one coin, little boy," the vendor said. "Do you want it?" + +"Yes, please," Tim said. He gave the vendor a coin and took the balloon. + +Lily saw a hat with ears and whiskers. It looked like a cat. She liked it very much. She asked the vendor how much it was. + +"Only one coin, little girl," the vendor said. "Do you want it?" + +"Yes, please," Lily said. She gave the vendor a coin and put on the hat. + +The vendor smiled and said, "You both look very nice. Have fun in the park." + +"Thank you, mister," Tim and Lily said. + +They walked away with Mom, holding their new things. They saw a big dog on a leash. The dog barked at them. Tim and Lily were scared. They hid behind Mom. + +"Don't worry, kids," Mom said. "The dog is harmless. He just wants to say hello." + +She went to the dog and rubbed his head. The dog wagged his tail and licked her hand. He was friendly. + +"See? He's a good dog," Mom said. "Do you want to pet him?" + +Tim and Lily nodded. They went to the dog and rubbed his fur. The dog liked it. He sniffed their balloon and hat. He did not bite them. + +"Good boy," Tim and Lily said. + +They made a new friend. They were happy. +Anna did not like broccoli. She thought it was green and yucky. She did not want to eat it for dinner. She pushed her plate away and said, "No, thank you." + +Her mom was not happy. She said, "Anna, you have to eat your broccoli. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy. Please try one bite." + +Anna shook her head. She said, "No, mom. I don't like it. It tastes bad. I want something else." + +Her mom sighed. She said, "Anna, I understand you don't like it, but you have to eat what I make for you. You can have something else after you finish your broccoli. How about a deal? If you eat three pieces of broccoli, you can have a cookie for dessert. How does that sound?" + +Anna thought about it. She liked cookies. She wanted a cookie. But she did not want to eat broccoli. She looked at her plate. She saw three small pieces of broccoli. She wondered if she could do it. She decided to try. She said, "Okay, mom. I will eat three pieces of broccoli. But only for a cookie." + +Her mom smiled. She said, "Good girl. I'm proud of you. You are being brave and trying new things. That's how you grow and learn. Here, I will help you. Let's count together. One, two, three. You did it!" + +Anna felt proud too. She ate three pieces of broccoli. She did not like them, but she did not spit them out. She swallowed them and drank some water. She said, "Mom, I ate three pieces of broccoli. Can I have a cookie now?" + +Her mom nodded. She said, "Yes, you can. You were very successful. You ate your broccoli and you kept your promise. Here is your cookie. Enjoy it. You earned it." + +Anna took the cookie and smiled. She said, "Thank you, mom. I love you." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "I love you too, Anna. You are a good girl. And maybe, one day, you will like broccoli too." +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, and slide. They have fun. This is exercise. + +One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is brown and hairy. It has a long tail and big teeth. The dog looks unusual. Tom and Mia are curious. They want to pet the dog. + +They go near the dog. The dog is sleeping on the grass. Tom and Mia are quiet. They do not want to wake the dog. Tom reaches his hand to touch the dog's fur. Mia reaches her hand to touch the dog's tail. + +But the dog is not happy. The dog feels Tom and Mia's hands. The dog thinks they are trying to hurt him. The dog wakes up. He barks loud. He bites Tom's hand. He pinches Mia's hand. Tom and Mia scream. They are scared and hurt. + +The dog runs away. Tom and Mia cry. They have blood on their hands. They need help. They look for their mom and dad. But they do not see them. They are lost in the park. They are alone and sad. This is a bad ending. +Mira and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to balance on the big log that was near the slide. They took turns to see who could walk the longest without falling off. + +"Look at me, I can balance all the way to the end!" Mira said, as she walked slowly and carefully on the log. + +"You are good, Mira, but I can do better!" Sam said, as he ran after her on the log. He wanted to catch up with her and show her he was faster. + +But Sam was too fast and not careful. He slipped on the log and fell off. He landed on the grass and hurt his knee. He started to cry. + +"Are you okay, Sam?" Mira asked, as she jumped off the log and ran to him. She saw his knee was bleeding and felt sorry for him. + +"I'm okay, I'm okay, it's not bad," Sam said, as he wiped his tears and tried to stand up. He was stubborn and did not want to admit he was hurt. + +"Let me see your knee, Sam. It needs a band-aid," Mira said, as she took his hand and helped him up. She was kind and wanted to help him. + +"No, I don't need a band-aid, I'm fine," Sam said, as he pulled his hand away and limped to the log. He wanted to balance on it again and prove he was brave. + +"Sam, don't be stubborn, your knee is bleeding. Come on, let's go to the bench and ask mom for a band-aid," Mira said, as she followed him and tried to stop him. + +"No, no, no, I want to balance, I want to balance!" Sam said, as he climbed on the log and tried to walk again. + +But he could not balance well. His knee was hurting and he was wobbling. He fell off again and cried louder. + +"Sam, please, listen to me. You need to rest your knee and put a band-aid on it. It will make you feel better," Mira said, as she hugged him and comforted him. + +"Okay, okay, fine. I will go with you. But I still can balance better than you," Sam said, as he gave up and let Mira lead him to the bench. + +Mira smiled and said, "Maybe you can, Sam, maybe you can. But you also need to be careful and not stubborn. Balance is not only about walking on a log, it is also about knowing when to stop and when to ask for help." + +Sam nodded and said, "You are right, Mira, you are right. You are a good friend and a good balancer. Thank you for helping me." + +They hugged and walked to the bench, where mom was waiting with a band-aid and a hug. They learned a lesson about balance and friendship that day. +Tommy liked to play in the park with his mom. He liked to see the birds, the flowers and the squirrels. One day, he saw a squirrel with a big nut in its mouth. It was trying to dig a hole in the ground to hide the nut, but it was hard. + +"Mom, look at the squirrel!" Tommy said. "It needs help!" + +"Maybe it does, Tommy. Do you want to help it?" Mom asked. + +"Yes, Mom. I want to be helpful," Tommy said. He ran to the squirrel and knelt down. He took a stick and started to dig a hole next to the squirrel. + +The squirrel was surprised, but it did not run away. It watched Tommy dig the hole. Then it dropped the nut in the hole and covered it with dirt. It looked at Tommy and made a happy sound. + +"Thank you, Tommy. You are very helpful," the squirrel seemed to say. + +"You are welcome, squirrel. I am glad you completed your work," Tommy said. He smiled and waved at the squirrel. Then he ran back to his mom. + +"Mom, I helped the squirrel. It was happy," Tommy said. + +"I saw that, Tommy. You did a good job. You are very kind," Mom said. She hugged Tommy and kissed his cheek. + +Tommy felt proud and happy. He liked to help the squirrels and the other animals in the park. He liked to play with his mom. He liked to learn new words. He was a good boy. +One day, a fisherman went to the lake to catch some fish. He had a big net and a small boat. He threw the net into the water and waited for the fish to swim in. + +But a bad fox was hiding in the bushes. He saw the fisherman and his net. He thought, "I want to eat those fish. I will steal them when the fisherman is not looking." + +The fox crept closer to the boat. He jumped on it and grabbed the net with his teeth. He tried to run away with the net, but it was too heavy. The net dragged him into the water. Splash! + +The fisherman heard the noise and turned around. He saw the fox struggling in the water. He said, "Hey, you bad fox! Why did you steal my net? Now you are wet and cold. And you have no fish." + +The fox felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "I am sorry, fisherman. I was hungry and greedy. I should not have stolen your net. Please help me out of the water." + +The fisherman was kind and forgiving. He pulled the fox out of the water and gave him a towel. He said, "Here, dry yourself. And take this fish. It is enough for you. Next time, do not steal. Ask nicely and share." + +The fox thanked the fisherman and learned his lesson. He said, "Thank you, fisherman. You are good and generous. I will not steal again. I will ask nicely and share." + +The fisherman and the fox became friends. They ate the fish together and talked. They learned that stealing is bad and sharing is good. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make noises like the engines and race them on the grass. Lily had a red car and Tom had a blue car. + +"Vroom, vroom, I'm faster than you!" Tom said, zooming his car past Lily's. + +"No, you're not, I'm faster!" Lily said, chasing him with her car. + +They reached the fence and saw a big truck parked on the street. It had a shiny metal ring on the front. Lily and Tom ran to the fence and looked at the truck. + +"Wow, what is that?" Lily asked, pointing at the ring. + +"I think it's a bell. Maybe it makes a loud noise," Tom said. + +He climbed over the fence and ran to the truck. He reached for the ring and pulled it hard. The truck made a loud honking sound that made Lily and Tom jump. + +"Honk, honk, honk!" the truck said. + +Lily and Tom laughed and clapped their hands. They liked the noise. They pulled the ring again and again, making the truck honk louder and louder. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" a voice said. + +They turned and saw a man coming out of the house. He looked angry. He was the truck driver. + +"What are you doing? That's my truck! You can't play with it!" he said. + +He walked to the truck and took the ring from Tom. He put it back on the front of the truck. + +"Sorry, mister, we just wanted to hear the bell," Lily said. + +"Yeah, sorry, mister, it was fun," Tom said. + +The truck driver shook his head. He looked at Lily and Tom. + +"Well, I guess you didn't mean any harm. But you should be careful. That bell is very loud. It can make you dizzy if you hear it too much," he said. + +He smiled and gave them each a candy. + +"Here, have these. But don't touch my truck again, okay?" he said. + +Lily and Tom nodded. They said thank you and took the candy. They climbed back over the fence and went to their toy cars. + +They felt a little dizzy from the noise, but they were happy. They ate their candy and played with their cars. They didn't touch the truck again. +Ben and Lily were playing with cardboard boxes in the living room. They liked to pretend they were cars, boats, or castles. They cut out windows and doors with scissors and drew pictures with crayons. + +"Look at my boat!" Lily said, showing Ben her cardboard box. "It has a sail and a flag and a fish." + +"That's nice," Ben said, "but my car is better. It has wheels and a horn and a license plate." + +They both smiled and went back to playing. They were having fun. + +But then Ben saw something shiny on the table. It was a keychain with a twisty metal ring and a colorful charm. He wanted to play with it. + +He got up and walked to the table. He reached for the keychain. But Lily saw him and ran after him. + +"Stop!" she shouted. "That's Mommy's keychain! You can't touch it!" + +Ben ignored her. He grabbed the keychain and ran back to his cardboard box. He twisted the metal ring and tried to put it on his car. + +"Give it back!" Lily cried. "You're being mean!" + +"No!" Ben said. "It's mine now!" + +He twisted the metal ring harder. But it was too hard. The ring broke and the charm fell off. The keychain was ruined. + +Ben and Lily gasped. They heard Mommy coming. They were scared. + +Mommy walked into the living room. She saw the broken keychain on the floor and the cardboard boxes on the couch. She was angry. + +"Who did this?" she asked in a loud voice. + +Ben and Lily looked at each other. They didn't say anything. They knew they were in trouble. + +Mommy picked up the keychain and the charm. She shook her head. + +"This was a gift from Daddy," she said. "He gave it to me for our anniversary. It was very special. And you broke it. How could you?" + +She looked at Ben and Lily. They felt sorry. They wanted to say sorry. But they were too afraid. + +Mommy sighed. She put the keychain and the charm in her pocket. + +"You two need a time-out," she said. "Go to your rooms. Now." + +Ben and Lily nodded. They got up and walked to their rooms. They didn't look at each other. They didn't look at Mommy. They were sad. + +They wished they had been more polite. They wished they had shared. They wished they had not played with the keychain. + +They learned a hard lesson. They hoped Mommy would forgive them. They hoped Daddy would not be mad. They hoped they could still play with cardboard boxes. But they were not sure. They had a bad ending. +Lily liked to draw pictures with her crayons. She drew flowers, animals, houses and people. She wanted to draw a giant, but she did not know how. She thought it was too difficult. + +She asked her big brother Sam for help. Sam was good at drawing. He showed her how to make a big circle for the head, a long line for the body, and four smaller lines for the arms and legs. He also added eyes, a nose, a mouth, ears and hair. + +Lily tried to copy Sam's giant, but her lines were wobbly and her circle was not round. She felt sad and wanted to give up. She said, "I can't draw a giant. It's too hard." + +Sam saw that Lily was upset. He wanted to encourage her. He said, "You can do it, Lily. You just need to practice. Drawing is fun. It doesn't have to be perfect. I like your giant. He looks friendly and happy." + +Lily smiled and thanked Sam. She decided to keep trying. She drew another giant, and another, and another. She made them different colors and gave them different clothes and accessories. She had fun and felt proud of her pictures. She showed them to Sam and said, "Look, I drew a lot of giants. They are all different and special." + +Sam hugged Lily and said, "You did a great job, Lily. You are a great artist. I'm proud of you." Lily hugged Sam back and said, "You are a great brother. Thank you for helping me and encouraging me." They put their pictures on the wall and admired their giants. +Ben and Lily like to play with their toys in the garden. They have many toys, but their favorite is the large crane. The crane can lift and move things with its long arm and hook. + +One day, Ben and Lily want to play with the crane, but they disagree on what to do. Ben wants to use the crane to build a tower with the blocks. Lily wants to use the crane to make a swing with the rope. They both pull on the crane and say, "It's mine!" + +The crane does not like it when Ben and Lily disagree. It makes a loud noise and shakes its arm. The blocks and the rope fall to the ground. Ben and Lily stop pulling and look at the crane. They feel sorry for making it angry. + +They say, "Sorry, crane. We will not disagree anymore. We will share and take turns." They hug the crane and each other. Then they have an idea. They use the blocks and the rope to make a tower and a swing together. The crane is happy and helps them. Ben and Lily have fun playing with the crane. They are good friends. +Lily liked to wander in the park with her mom. She saw many things that made her happy: flowers, birds, dogs, and swings. She wore a red vest that was warm and soft. Her mom wore a blue vest that matched her eyes. + +One day, they met a boy who was playing with a ball. He had a green vest and a wide smile. He said hello to Lily and asked if she wanted to play. Lily nodded and ran to him. They kicked the ball and laughed together. + +"Can I be your friend?" the boy asked Lily. + +"Yes, you can!" Lily said. "What is your name?" + +"My name is Max. What is yours?" + +"My name is Lily. I like your vest. It is green like the grass." + +"I like your vest too. It is red like the flowers." + +They hugged and smiled. Lily's mom watched them and smiled too. She was glad that Lily made a new friend. She called them to have a snack. They shared cookies and juice and talked about the park. They had a lot of fun. Lily and Max decided to play again soon. They said goodbye and waved. Lily and her mom went home. Lily was very happy. She had a good day. +Sara was upset. She missed her mom. Her mom went to work and said she would be back soon. But Sara did not know what soon meant. She looked at the clock, but she could not read the numbers. She felt a worry in her tummy. + +She decided to play with her toys. She had a doll, a bear, and a car. She made them talk to each other. "Hello, doll. Do you miss your mom?" she asked. "Yes, I do. I hope she comes back soon," the doll said. "Me too," Sara said. She hugged the doll. + +Then she heard a noise. It was the door. She ran to the door, hoping it was her mom. But it was not. It was a man. He had a big bag and a mask. He looked scary. He saw Sara and said, "Hello, little girl. I'm here to take your toys. Give them to me, or I'll hurt you." + +Sara was scared. She screamed. She did not want to give her toys. They were her friends. She held the doll and the bear tightly. She threw the car at the man. The man dodged the car and grabbed Sara's arm. He tried to pull her away from the door. + +But then, Sara heard another noise. It was her mom. She came back from work. She heard Sara scream and saw the man. She was angry. She yelled, "Let go of my daughter, you thief!" She kicked the man in the leg. The man let go of Sara and ran away. He dropped his bag and his mask. + +Sara ran to her mom and hugged her. She was happy. She said, "Mom, I missed you so much. I was so worried. There was a bad man who wanted to take my toys." Her mom hugged her back and said, "I missed you too, sweetie. I'm sorry I was late. I'm so glad you're safe. You were very brave to fight the bad man. I'm proud of you." + +They went inside and locked the door. They checked the bag and the mask. They had the man's name and address. They called the police and told them what happened. The police said they would catch the man and put him in jail. Sara and her mom felt better. They played with the toys and had a snack. They did not feel upset or worry anymore. They felt love. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to wander around the park. They saw many things, like flowers, birds, and swings. They also saw a big pond with ducks and fish. Tom was enthusiastic and wanted to feed the ducks. He had some bread in his pocket that he broke into pieces. + +"Look, Lily, the ducks are hungry. Let's give them some bread," he said. + +Lily nodded and followed him to the pond. They threw some bread into the water and watched the ducks swim and eat. They also saw some fish come up and nibble the bread. + +"Wow, the fish like bread too. Can we feed them more?" Lily asked. + +Tom smiled and reached into his pocket. He found another piece of bread, but he also found something else. It was a small packet of salt that he had taken from the cafeteria. He was curious and opened it. + +"What's that, Tom?" Lily asked. + +"It's salt. It makes food tasty. Maybe the fish and ducks like salt too," he said. + +He sprinkled some salt on the bread and threw it into the pond. He waited to see what would happen. + +But the fish and ducks did not like salt. They spit out the bread and swam away. They made loud noises and splashed the water. They looked angry and sad. + +"Tom, what did you do? You made them sick. That's not nice," Lily said. + +Tom felt bad. He did not mean to hurt the fish and ducks. He wanted to make them happy. He said sorry to Lily and to the fish and ducks. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, fish and ducks. I didn't know salt was bad for you. I won't do it again. Please forgive me," he said. + +Lily hugged him and said it was okay. She said they should find something else to feed the fish and ducks. Something they liked. Maybe some seeds or worms. + +Tom agreed and they walked away from the pond. They looked for something good to feed the fish and ducks. They hoped they would feel better soon. They learned a lesson. They learned that salt was not for fish and ducks. They learned to be careful and kind. +Anna liked to play with her mom's things. She liked to look at the shiny rings and the pretty dresses. But her favorite thing was the perfume. It smelled so good and made her feel like a princess. + +One day, when her mom was busy, Anna decided to take the perfume and spray it on herself. She went to the bathroom and climbed on a stool. She reached for the bottle and pressed the top. But nothing came out. She pressed harder and harder, but still nothing. + +She looked at the bottle and saw that it was empty. She felt sad and angry. She threw the bottle on the floor and it broke. The glass made a loud noise and cut her foot. She started to cry. + +Her mom heard the noise and ran to the bathroom. She saw Anna bleeding and the broken bottle. She was shocked and scared. She picked up Anna and hugged her. + +"Anna, what did you do? Why did you take my perfume? You could have hurt yourself very badly!" she said. + +"I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to smell like you. But the perfume was dull. It didn't work. I didn't mean to break it." Anna said. + +"Shh, it's okay. I'm not mad at you. I love you. But you have to be careful with my things. They are not toys. And you don't need perfume to smell good. You are sweet enough as you are." her mom said. + +She cleaned Anna's foot and put a band-aid on it. She kissed her and took her to the couch. She read her a story and cuddled with her. Anna felt better and said sorry again. Her mom forgave her and said she loved her. They smiled and hugged. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big doll that she loved very much. Tom had a small car that he liked to zoom around. They were having fun, but they also wanted each other's toys. + +"Can I play with your doll, Lily?" Tom asked. + +"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "You have your car, play with that." + +"But I want to play with your doll, too. It's so pretty and soft," Tom said. + +"No, it's mine! Go away!" Lily said. She hugged her doll and turned away from Tom. + +Tom felt angry and sad. He wanted to play with Lily, but she was being mean. He looked at his car and had an idea. He decided to prevent Lily from playing with her doll. He zoomed his car towards Lily and bumped into her doll. The doll fell off the couch and landed on the floor. + +"Hey, stop that!" Lily shouted. "You made my doll fall! You're so bad!" + +Tom laughed. He thought he had taught Lily a lesson. He zoomed his car again and bumped into the doll. The doll rolled away from Lily. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Lily cried. She tried to get her doll, but Tom was faster. He drove his car around the doll and blocked Lily. + +Lily and Tom were making a lot of noise. Their grandmother, who was elderly and kind, heard them from the kitchen. She came to the living room and saw what was happening. She was not happy. + +"What are you two doing?" she asked. "Why are you fighting over toys?" + +"Lily won't let me play with her doll. It's not fair," Tom said. + +"Tom is being mean. He made my doll fall. It's mine," Lily said. + +Grandmother sighed. She picked up the doll and the car and held them in her hands. + +"Listen to me, children. Toys are not yours or mine. They are for sharing and playing together. If you only think about yourself, you will make others unhappy and lose friends. If you think about others, you will make them happy and gain friends. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Tom looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they had done. They nodded. + +"Yes, grandmother. We understand," they said. + +"Good. Now, say sorry to each other and hug," grandmother said. + +Lily and Tom said sorry and hugged. They felt better. They smiled at grandmother. + +"Can we play with the doll and the car together, grandmother?" they asked. + +"Of course, you can. That's what sharing is. Here you go," grandmother said. She gave them the doll and the car. + +Lily and Tom thanked grandmother and played with the doll and the car together. They had more fun than before. They learned to share and prevent fights. They made grandmother happy, too. +Sara and Ben liked to play in the park. They liked to climb the big oak tree. The oak tree had many branches and leaves. It was fun to see the birds and the sky from the tree. + +One day, they saw a bright red sign on the tree. The sign had some words on it, but Sara and Ben could not read them. They did not know what the sign meant. They wanted to climb the tree anyway. + +"Let's go up the tree," Sara said. + +"No, wait," Ben said. "The sign might warn us. Maybe the tree is sick or dangerous. Maybe we should not climb it." + +Sara did not listen to Ben. She ran to the tree and started to climb. Ben followed her. He did not want to be alone. + +They climbed higher and higher. They felt happy and brave. They did not see the hole in the tree. The hole had bees inside. The bees were angry. They did not like Sara and Ben. + +Suddenly, the bees came out of the hole. They buzzed and stung. They hurt Sara and Ben. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara and Ben cried. "Help, help, help!" + +They climbed down the tree as fast as they could. They ran to their mom. Their mom saw their red bumps and tears. She hugged them and took them home. + +She put some cream on their bumps. She gave them some juice and cookies. She told them to be careful next time. + +She said, "You should always read the signs. They warn you of danger. They keep you safe. Do you understand?" + +Sara and Ben nodded. They said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They did not climb the oak tree again. +Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with cards. They have many cards with animals and colors. They take turns to show a card and say its name.

It says splash-splash." + +They are having fun. They are peaceful. They do not fight or yell. They share the cards and smile. But then, a big boy comes. He is mean. He wants the cards. He says, "Give me the cards. They are mine." Sara and Tom say, "No, they are ours. We are playing with them." The big boy gets angry. He grabs the cards. He shakes them hard. He tears them apart. He throws them on the ground. He laughs. He says, "Now you have no cards. Ha-ha-ha." + +Sara and Tom are sad. They cry. They look at the broken cards. They are not peaceful. They are scared. They want the cards back. They say, "You are bad. You are mean. You broke our cards. We do not like you." The big boy does not care. He walks away. He says, "I do not care. I do not like you. You are babies. Go away." Sara and Tom hug each other. They wish they had their cards. They wish the big boy would go away. They wish they were peaceful again. +Lila and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy. + +"Look at our snowman!" Lila said. "He is so big and nice!" + +"Yes, he is!" Tom said. "But I am cold and hungry. Can we go home and have some soup?" + +"OK, let's go," Lila said. "But we have to say goodbye to our snowman first." + +They ran to their snowman and hugged him. "Goodbye, snowman!" they said. "We will come back tomorrow and play with you again!" + +But when they came back the next day, they saw something sad. The sun had melted their snowman. He was only a small pile of snow with a hat and a scarf. His carrot nose and his rock eyes were gone. + +"Oh no!" Lila cried. "Our snowman is gone! He must have suffered a lot in the sun!" + +"I know," Tom said. "He was our friend. But maybe we can make him again when it snows more." + +They picked up the hat and the scarf and took them home. They hoped it would snow soon. They wanted to taste the snowflakes again and make another snowman. They missed their cold friend. +Lily and Sam love to play soccer. They have a small pitch in their backyard, where they kick the ball and run fast. Sometimes, their mom and dad watch them and cheer for them. + +One day, Lily and Sam have a special guest.

Max asks Lily and Sam. + +"Sure, you can play with us!" Lily and Sam say. They are happy to have Max with them. + +They decide to play a game. Lily and Sam are on one team, and Max is on the other team. They take turns to kick the ball and try to score a goal. Max is very fast and skillful, but Lily and Sam work together and have fun. + +The game is very close and exciting. Lily and Sam score two goals, and Max scores two goals. It is a tie. Then, Max has the ball and runs towards the goal. He is about to shoot, when Lily runs after him and tackles him. She takes the ball and passes it to Sam. Sam runs fast and shoots the ball. He scores a goal! + +"Yay, we win!" Lily and Sam shout. They hug each other and jump up and down. + +"Wow, that was a great game!" Max says. He is not sad that he lost. He is proud of Lily and Sam.

You make the ducks and the children sad." + +The dog's owner hears the mom. He comes and calls the dog. The dog runs to him. He says sorry to the mom and the twins. + +"I'm sorry, my dog is not calm. He likes to chase birds. I will take him away from the pond." + +The mom says thank you. She tells Lily and Ben that the dog is gone. She asks them if they want to feed the ducks again. + +Lily and Ben nod. They wipe their tears and smile. They take some more bread and walk to the pond. The ducks come back and eat the bread.

One day, the little girl decided to complain about something the dinosaur had done. She said, “You shouldn’t have done that!†+ +The dinosaur was sad. He asked her, “Why are you so mad at me?†+ +The little girl didn’t give him an answer. Instead, she just kept on complaining. So, the dinosaur turned around and left. + +The little girl was very sad and sorry.

He was walking faster and faster in circles with no way out until he noticed a small alleyway. He decided to go down the alleyway and explore. + +At the end of the alleyway, he heard a voice from a big, scary dog. The dog barked and growled at the cat and chased him down the alley. The cat ran so fast that he was unable to mark his way. He was terrified and eventually the urge to escape took over and he was gone. + +The cat never found his way back because he had no way of recognising where he had been. The poor cat was lost forever and could never find his way back home. +Once upon a time there was a little girl named Emily.

It felt cold and wet! + +Emily started to laugh. She had forgotten her shoes, but then remembered that she would still get to enjoy the bright and fair sunrise every morning. +Once upon a time, there was an old man and a young girl.

Every time she went, the old tree revealed a little bit more about the garden. + +One day, the girl was so excited that she ran home to tell her family all she had learned. But as she was taking a shortcut through the neighboring woods, she got lost. After a long time, she found her way back home. + +When the girl got to the old tree again, the voice said, “You should always keep away from danger. Sometimes caring too much about something can get you into trouble.†+ +The girl understood that she should be more careful.

Timmy thought for a moment and replied, "That's a much better idea!" + +He picked up the brush and put it down. He began sorting the cars with his hands and found it much more fun. + +In the end, Timmy learned that it's best to be creative and find new solutions to doing things rather than using boring, old ways. +Once upon a time there was an old net. It was an old and faithful net, which had been passed down from generation to generation in the same family. + +One day, a three-year-old child was playing with the net.

They asked her to tell them how to make the best chocolate. + +The little girl thought for a few seconds, and then said that the secret to making the best chocolate was thinning it out.

"We use needles to sew things. It is a very useful tool." + +Bob was very excited. He ran around finding things to sew. But it was very dark outside, so Bob could not see properly. + +"Mommy, I need a flashlight!" said Bob. + +"Oh, that's a good idea," said his mommy.

"I'm thirsty," the first animal replied. + +The larger animal didn't say much and just stared back, so the other animal nervously added, "It's okay if I take a drink, right?" + +The larger animal slyly smiled, but didn't answer. So, the first animal realized he would have to answer the question himself. He took a look around the lake and noticed that the water was slowly drying. He knew that as the lake dried up, larger animals would have to compete for the last drops of water. So, he decided it would be best to share the water with the other animals. + +The large animal smiled again and the two went on to share the water of the lake until it finally dried up. And the animals all lived happily ever after. +One day, there was a fearful animal. It was so scared that it was hiding from everyone and everything. One brave little boy saw the animal and decided that he wanted to learn more about it. He slowly walked up to the animal and said, "Hi there! Do you want me to give you something to drink?" + +Startled, the animal looked around cautiously. The boy said, "Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you. I just want to help." The animal slowly crept closer, and the boy opened a bottle of water and poured it into a bowl. The animal quickly started to drink. + +The boy watched and smiled, happy that he could help his new friend. He said, "I’ll be back tomorrow and we can spend some time together." + +The next day, the boy returned, and to his surprise, he saw that the fearful animal was now happily playing and not scared at all!

"It's too tall and I can't reach the top," he said. + +Amy tried to help. She grabbed hold of the tree and shook it, but still nothing happened. + +Suddenly, her father smiled. "I know how to get the coconut down," he said. "We just need to remove the leaves at the top.

She questioned her mom, "What happened to the flower?" To which her mom replied, "It's sad, but it's a part of history now." + +Sarah's mom tried to explain to Sarah the importance of respecting history, but Sarah did not understand why it was important. She walked away, still plucking the petals from the flower. Her mom shook her head in sadness as her daughter did not realize the importance of respecting history. + +Unfortunately, Sarah's innocent mistake had a bad ending. As she looked around, she noticed that all the flowers in the park were in the same state as the first one she plucked. She had destroyed the park's delicate history without even realizing it. +Once upon a time, there was a monkey who was feeling very gloomy. The monkey lived in the jungle, and had no other friends.

She hopped around happily and noticed something sparkly on the ground. Jenny bent down to pick it up and found an old wishing box. + +"Ooh!" she squeaked. "What's this cool thing?" + +Just then, a frog sprang out of the box. He was wearing a purple hat and had a twinkle in his eye. + +"Greetings!" he croaked. "I'm Mr. Croak. I will grant you three wishes. What would you like?" + +Jenny clapped her hands. "I want to explore the forest!" she cried. + +Mr. Croak smiled. He waved his wand and sparks flew in the air. "Your wish is granted!" he said. + +Jenny hopped around the forest, discovering new sights, sounds, textures and smells. She was so excited! Mr. Croak followed her, singing a jolly song. They had so much fun together. + +By the end of the day, their wish had come true and the forest felt like home. +Jane and her mommy were making cupcakes. Jane was excited because she could help. They put flour and sugar into the bowl. Then they added eggs, milk and butter. Jane got to stir it all together. After, the mixture was quick and creamy. + +Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Jane's mommy's face got all serious. It was Auntie Anne. She was always competitive and never wanted Jane to have any fun. + +"What are you two cooking?" Auntie Anne asked. + +"Cupcakes," Jane answered. + +Auntie Anne sneered. "Well, I bet my cupcakes taste better!" + +So Jane and her mommy put the cupcakes in the oven. They waited eagerly, eager to see whose cupcakes would be best. + +When the timer went off, Jane and her mommy opened the oven. But their cupcakes were lumpy, not cooked all the way. Jane knew it was because Auntie Anne had come and ruined the fun. Jane felt sad and upset. The cupcakes were no good. + +Jane's mommy put her arm around her. "It's ok," she said. "We'll try again next time." +Once upon a time, there was a little girl called Lily. +She was playing in the garden with a big puzzle. +Lily wanted to find out what was inside the puzzle, +so she tried really hard to figure it out. + +Suddenly, Lily started to weep. +She was sad, because the puzzle was too hard for her. +"Please don't cry," said her mom softly. +"I will help you with the puzzle." + +Lily's mom showed her how to take apart the puzzle, +piece by piece. +It took a while, but Lily and her mom solved the puzzle together. +Lily was so happy she started to smile. + +They hugged and Lily's mom said, "See, solving puzzles isn't so hard after all". +Lily looked up and said, "Thank you for helping me mommy, I love you". +And they hugged again, as soft and gentle as can be. +The little boy was frightened. He didn't know what to do. He was 5 years old, but he was very small for his age. + +He was hiding in the shadows when he heard a noise. He turned around and saw the sun shining brightly through the trees. He was so scared that he could barely move. + +He heard a voice behind him. "Don't be frightened," the voice said. + +The little boy turned around and saw a friendly looking animal. It was a rabbit! + +The rabbit smiled and said, "The sun is your friend. When you're scared, just look at the sunshine and it will make you feel better". + +The little boy smiled and timidly turned back to the sun. He felt the warmth of its rays on his face and his fear disappeared. He was no longer frightened. +Once upon a time there was a playful bunny. She loved to hop and play in the meadow. One day, she saw a stitch coming out of a hole in her burrow. The bunny knew that she had to escape. + +The bunny said to herself, "I must get away!" She made a plan and hopped off. She ran as fast as she could, but the stitch was right behind her! "No way!" said the bunny. + +But then, she noticed a big tree near the edge of the meadow. It had big branches that she could use to climb up and hide. The bunny made a dash for the tree and quickly climbed up. She was safe! + +The bunny felt relieved and laughed as she looked down from the tree. + +The stitch never caught her, and the bunny lived happily ever after! +Once upon a time, there lived a lazy dog named Bob. He would not move or do anything all day long, he just liked to lay in the sun. One hot summer day, Bob saw a package arrive at his house. It was for his family, but Bob was curious. He decided to take a look. + +When Bob opened the package, he saw a little toy boat. It had a blue sail and looked very fun. He picked it up and waved it around, going fast and slow, up and down. + +Suddenly, Bob could hear a loud noise coming from outside. He quickly ran to the window and saw a big wave rolling towards him fast. Before he could do anything, the wave came crashing in and swept Bob up! + +Bob was so scared but he clung onto his boat and waited it out. Unfortunately, he couldn't hold on for very long and he started to sink. Bob was never seen again - all because of his lazy ways! +One day, a young girl was walking in the park. She noticed a dry tree and stopped to look closer. She saw a beautiful bird sitting in it and said "hello bird!" The bird replied with a cheerful song. The girl listened happily and mentioned to the bird about the power of friendship. The bird nodded her head and sang a special song about it. Then the girl thanked the bird and bid the bird farewell. + +The power of friendship was very special, and the girl never forgot it. She continued on her walk, but the dry tree was always in her memory. She was happy that she had shared a moment with the bird and still remembered the mention of friendship and the special bird's song. +Molly and her mom were playing in the park. Molly was climbing the steps when suddenly, she lost her balance. She fell. "Ouch!" Molly cried. + +Her mom hurried over to pick Molly up. + +"Are you okay?" her mom asked. + +Molly nodded and wiped away her tears. + +"What if we have a great idea?" Her mom asked. "Let's build a fort today. It'll be fun!" + +Molly was excited at the idea. The two of them went to the store and bought cloth, sticks, and glue. Then, they went back to the park and made a big, fair fort. + +Molly smiled. "I love the fort! We can play in it everyday." + +Her mom smiled too. "Yes, it's a great idea." +Once upon a time there was a stubborn little girl named Jane. She loved to spin around and around in circles. One day, she was spinning so quickly that she fell right onto her knee. She cried and cried, but no matter how hard she tried, Jane couldn't get it to stop hurting. + +Eventually, Jane's mommy came to her rescue. She asked Jane, "What happened sweetheart?". +Jane replied, "I spun too fast and it hurt my knee." Jane's mommy said, "No more spinning sweetheart. It's time to go inside now." + +However, Jane was very stubborn and refused to listen. She kept spinning around in circles and trying to ignore the pain in her knee. + +Unfortunately, her knee was getting worse and worse. No matter what Jane did, she couldn't make it feel better. + +Finally, Jane's mommy had to take her to the doctor. They found out that her knee was so badly injured that Jane would never be able to spin around again! + +The End. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl who loved to share. She lived in a small house with her mom, dad and brother. One day they went to the beach together. + +When they got there, the little girl found a bright yellow vest. She was so excited that she wanted to share it with everyone. She took it off and gave it to her brother. + +"Yay! Let's play," her brother said. He put on the vest and ran to the water's edge. But when the water touched his feet, it was wet! + +"Mommy! Daddy!" shouted the little girl. "My brother's vest is all wet!" + +Her mom and dad came over to help. They all put their hands on the vest and shook it out. Then they hung it up on a bush to dry in the sun. + +The little girl was so happy. Sharing this vest was the best thing she had ever done! +Once upon a time, there were two best friends that lived close together. They were very happy, until one day they started to quarrel. The best friends yelled at one another and didn’t want to speak. No matter how much they talked and tried to fix their friendship, nothing seemed to work. + +One day, their quarrelling lead them to an enormous castle. There the two friends saw a giant key that was sticking out from the door. They both knew that if they could open the door, it would help them make up. + +Unfortunately, only one of them could open the door with the key. Both friends were too scared to try, but in the end the bravest one took the key and put it into the lock. With a turn, the door opened and the two friends could see a rainbow of colours seeping out. + +They hugged each other and forgot all about their quarrel. The rainbow of colours meant that the doorway was full of friendship and love, just what the two friends needed. + +The moral of the story is that friendship and love are more powerful than quarrelling. It takes courage to look beyond our differences and find common ground. +Once upon a time there was a park with a big, tall bench. It was a nice bench, but it was very filthy. It was so filthy the animals wouldn't even go near it. + +One day, the park workers came to the park. They brought big tools and they wanted to remove the bench. + +The park workers worked all day and they used their big tools to take the bench away. Soon enough, the bench was gone! + +The park was much nicer without the old, filthy bench. The birds and the squirrels were very happy and they could jump on it and play. + +The end. +"Let's go for a walk, Annie," said her mom. +It was a lovely evening and the sun was setting. +Annie giggled and followed her mom outside. +The air was crisp and fresh. + +Annie wanted to go to the park, so she grabbed her mom's hand and started skipping. +As they entered the park, Annie gasped. +The trees were swaying in the breeze, the flowers were in full bloom and the fountains were frozen! + +It was so beautiful, like a magical winter wonderland. +"Mommy, look!" said Annie. + +"Oh, it's so lovely!," said Annie's mom. +She hugged Annie and gave her a big kiss. +Annie smiled and said, "Mommy, I love you!" + +Her mom rubbed her back and said, "I love you too, Annie." +They stayed there for a while longer and enjoyed the lovely evening. +The breeze gradually getting cooler, and soon it was time to go home. +But Annie would never forget the wonderful evening they spent together. +Mama and Papa allowed their daughter, Lily, to come into the kitchen and help them cook. Lily was very excited as she had been wanting to learn how to cook like mama and papa. As they taught her how to cook, they showed her the stove. + +"How smart is this stove?" asked Lily, looking on in awe. + +"It's very intelligent, Lily," said Papa.

His friends thought it was so much fun. + +At the end of the day, they were all worn out from playing. But they had had a great time and everyone was smiling. Alfred felt so happy. He had had the most wonderful day, with all his friends in such an adorable place. +Once upon a time there was a brave little boy called Tom. He liked to explore the deep woods near his house. One day, as he was walking through the woods, he came across a bright and twinkling jewel. He immediately wanted to pick it up and take it home with him. But as he reached for it, a giant hand came out from behind a tree and squeezed it tight. Tom was scared and yelled, "Who's there?" + +A gentle voice said, "It's me, a wise old wizard". Tom was so surprised, he almost forgot about the jewel. The wizard smiled and said, "This jewel is very special, it comes from deep in the earth and has magical powers. You must take good care of it." Tom nodded, with a smile. + +Tom thanked the wizard and he slowly squeezed the jewel in his hands. He knew it was special and he wouldn't ever forget it. He took the jewel home with him and kept it forever. +Cindy was a very lonely girl. She had no friends and she didn't know how to make them. She asked her mom what she could do. + +"You need to improve," said her mom. + +Cindy didn't understand what that meant. + +"If you learn some new skills, you will be able to make lots of friends," her mom explained. "Let's go to the park and meet people." + +Cindy was a bit scared, but she agreed. + +When they got to the park, her mom encouraged her to talk to the other kids. She was able to make a few friends, but it was a slow process. + +"It's going to take some time," her mom said. + +But Cindy was determined to be quick. She worked hard every day and she soon had lots of new friends. The park was no longer a lonely place for her, and she felt so much better now that she had many friends. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy called Tom. Every morning he would wander off to explore, and look for something interesting. One day he saw a tall, strong structure in the distance, and he decided to wander over to it. + +When he arrived, he realised that it was made of wood and stones. He was curious and went to take a closer look. Suddenly, he heard a voice calling out his name. It was his mum, asking him to come home. Tom shouted back that he was busy, and then he ran inside the structure. + +Once inside, Tom discovered that it was a playhouse. He was so excited and started to climb up the stairs. He had great fun and explored every corner of the structure. + +After some time, Tom's mum called again. This time, Im shouted back "I'm coming!" But it was too late. The structure was a very old and had started to collapse around him, trapping him inside. + +Tom screamed for help and, suddenly, a strong man came to his rescue. He pulled Tom free, and they both stepped away from the structure as it finally collapsed. The man told Tom that the structure was no longer useful, and that he should have listened to his mum. + +Moral of the story: Always listen to your mum. +Once upon a time there was a brave little girl. Everywhere she went she had a smile on her face and she was never scared of anything. One day, she was walking in a very tough landscape with her mom. The landscape was full of huge hills and thick bushes. + +The little girl looked around with curiosity and said, "Mom, I'm not scared. Let me explore this place by myself." Her mom was hesitant but after much convincing, she let the little girl wander the landscape by herself. + +The little girl roamed around to find out what was hiding in this tough and unknown place. She came across a big boulder and started pushing it with all her might. The boulder started rolling and opened a secret passage! The little girl squealed with delight. + +Her mom came to see what was happening and said, "Oh my! I had a feeling this was going to be an adventure. Now let's go see what's in the secret passage!"

But then the lion shut the cage door and the boy was stuck inside. + +The boy was very scared but he was also very thoughtful, so he tried to think of a way to get out of the cage. He searched around and found a big stick that he could use as a lever to push the door open. He put the stick in the door and pushed. + +Unfortunately, the stick was too weak and the door shut tighter than ever. The boy was trapped!

You have had enough grapes for today. Don't forget to eat your vegetables too!" + +Joshy was upset. He crossed his arms and said "I don't want vegetables. I want a grape!" + +His mom smiled at him and said "I know you do, but you need to have other food too. Eating the same thing all the time isn't healthy. Why don't you have some of that yellow squash I cooked for you? It kind of tastes like a grape!" + +Joshy thought about it for a little bit, then agreed. As he ate the yellow squash, his mom reminded him that he should try to eat different foods so that he could grow up big and strong. + +Joshy listened to his mom and from then on he always tried to enjoy new foods. Whenever he saw a grape, though, it would always remind him of the lesson his mom taught him about eating healthy. +Once upon a time there was a blue fox named Jack.

Peter was so excited to have a plant of his own! + +He asked his mom: "Mom can I look after the plant?" + +"Of course you can sweetheart," his mom answered. + +Every day Peter watered the plant and he watched it as it began to grow bigger and bigger. It wasn't long until the plant was fit and strong. Seeing the increase of his plant made Peter happy. + +One day Peter heard a voice, it was his mom. + +"Peter, comes here, it’s time for dinner" + +Peter felt confused, he had to choose between dinner or looking after the plant. + +"You can always come back and look after your plant later. It's important to look after yourself too. Eating dinner will make you stronger and healthier," his mom said. + +Peter understood that keeping yourself fit and healthy was more important than looking after plants. So, he went to eat dinner with his mom and enjoyed a happy meal. + +The moral of this story is that taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of others. +Once there was a beautiful bird named Fran. She was very attractive, with a blue and green plume and a silver belly. Fran loved to sing and play in the garden. Every morning she would fly to the top of the highest tree and spread her wings to the sun. + +One day, Fran flew too far away from the garden and got lost. She flew around for a long time until she came to a large lake. Fran was so tired from the long flight, she could not find the strength to go any further. She settled down in a tall tree by the lake and waited for help to come. + +Suddenly, a little girl came running up to the lake. She shouted at Fran, "Where did you come from?" Fran slowly flapped her wings in response. The little girl was so happy to see Fran that she hugged her tightly and said, "I'm so glad you are here! Let's go back home and I'll take care of you forever." + +The little girl asked Fran to forgive her for forgetting to look after the bird. Fran nodded her head in acceptance.

As he was jogging one foot got stuck in a hole and Max got stuck and hurt himself. + +Max cried and whined until a farmer came to help him. The farmer tried to free him, but it was difficult. Max felt silly but he learned a valuable lesson. He learned that he should be more careful when exploring. The farmer was very kind and finally freed Max from the hole. + +From then on, Max only jogged slowly when exploring new territory. He was always more careful when he was curious and wanted to explore something new. This taught Max an important lesson to be careful. +One day in the meadow there was a huge hive.

Remo asked Bearsy what they should do. Bearsy suggested that they leave the caterpillar in the same place they found it, so that it could go on with its life. + +Bearsy and Remo followed this advice, and kneeled down to untangle the knot. Once they had freed the caterpillar, they watched it go on its way. + +The friends realised that even the little things, like a caterpillar in a knot, deserve to be respected and not interrupted in their daily life. They had shown a lot of kindness by freeing the caterpillar and hopefully this taught them a valuable lesson. +Once upon a time there was a tall rail. On the rail two birds were seated, laughing and joking. + +"What a funny joke!" said one bird. + +"What a silly joke," replied the other. + +They looked around and saw a little girl standing on the ground beneath the tall rail.

Because it has no one to look up at it!" + +The birds burst into laughter and said, "That's a great joke!" + +The little girl smiled and said, "Let's keep joking!" + +The birds agreed and so the three of them sat up on the tall rail, laughing and joking the night away. +One day, a little boy out walking with his mum came to a very big hill.

At the top was a fearful looking bird. + +Max was a bit taken aback, but he quickly realized that the bird was only scared. He spoke gently to the bird and said: "Hello, I'm Max! What are you scared of?" + +The bird replied: "A big, mean dog has been chasing me, and I'm afraid he will find me here!" Max had an idea and he said: "Let's fly away together! I'll help you find a safe place to stay." + +The bird and Max zoomed away together, and Max kept a lookout for the mean dog.

Sara does the same. + +The boat comes closer. Sara and Ben can hear people on the boat. They are singing and laughing. They see Sara and Ben waving. + +"Hello, little ones!" a man on the boat says. He waves back to them. "Do you like our boat?" + +"Yes, we do!" Sara and Ben say. "It is brilliant!" + +"Thank you!" the man says. "We are having a party on the boat. Do you want to join us?" + +Sara and Ben look at each other. They are curious and excited. But they also remember their mom and dad. + +"Thank you, but we have to stay here," Sara says. "Our mom and dad are watching us." + +"That's okay," the man says. "Maybe another time. Have fun on the beach!" + +The boat moves away. Sara and Ben keep waving until they can't see it anymore. + +"That was nice," Ben says. + +"Yes, it was," Sara says. "Maybe one day we can go on a boat too." + +They smile and hug. Then they go back to playing on the sand. +Tommy liked to play with his furry kitten, Snowy. He liked to hug her and pet her and make her purr. But sometimes, Tommy was too rough with Snowy. He would pull her tail or squeeze her too hard or throw her in the air. + +One day, Tommy was playing with Snowy in his room. He wanted to make her fly like a bird. He tossed her up and down and laughed. Snowy did not like this. She was scared and angry. She hissed and scratched Tommy's face. + +"Ow!" Tommy cried. "Bad kitty! Bad kitty!" He slapped Snowy hard on her head. Snowy yowled and ran away. She hid under the bed and did not come out. + +Tommy's mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tommy's face bleeding and Snowy hiding. She was very upset. + +"Tommy, what did you do?" she asked. "Why did you hurt Snowy?" + +"I was playing with her," Tommy said. "She scratched me, so I slapped her." + +"Tommy, that was very wrong. You should never slap a kitten or any animal. They have feelings too. You hurt Snowy and made her afraid of you. You need to say sorry to her and be gentle with her. And you need to go to the doctor for your face." + +Tommy did not want to say sorry or go to the doctor. He was mad at Snowy and his mom. He pouted and crossed his arms. He did not care about Snowy anymore. + +Snowy stayed under the bed for a long time. She did not trust Tommy or anyone. She was sad and lonely. She wished she had a nice friend who would love her and play with her kindly. She never purred again. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide and swing and run. But they also liked to look for things. They found rocks and sticks and leaves. Sometimes they found shiny things. + +One day, they saw something very shiny under a bush. It was a big ring made of steel. It had a star on it. Lily and Ben both wanted it. They ran to the bush and reached for the ring. + +"Mine!" Lily said. + +"No, mine!" Ben said. + +They pulled and tugged and shouted. The ring was stuck in the bush. They could not get it out. + +Then they heard a voice. It was a man in a uniform. He had a badge and a hat. He was a policeman. + +"Hello, kids," he said. "What are you doing?" + +Lily and Ben stopped pulling. They looked at the policeman. They felt scared. + +"We found a ring," Lily said. + +"It's mine," Ben said. + +The policeman smiled. He stepped closer to the bush. He reached in and took out the ring. He looked at it. + +"This is not a ring," he said. "This is a medal. It belongs to a soldier. He lost it here. He was very sad. He asked me to find it for him." + +Lily and Ben looked at the medal. They felt sorry for the soldier. + +"Can we give it back to him?" Lily asked. + +"Of course," the policeman said. "He is waiting for me at the station. He will be very happy to see it. Do you want to come with me and meet him?" + +Lily and Ben nodded. They liked to meet new people. They followed the policeman to his car. They gave him the medal. He thanked them. + +"You are very generous, kids," he said. "You did a good thing today. The soldier will be very grateful to you." + +Lily and Ben smiled. They felt proud. They learned a new word: generous. They liked it. They decided to be generous to each other and share their things. They also decided to look for more things in the park. Maybe they would find something else that someone lost and needed. They liked to help. They liked to be happy. +Anna and Ben wanted to decorate the big tree in their yard. They put on their hats and coats and gloves and went outside. It was very cold and there was snow on the ground. They saw some shiny things and some red things and some green things in a box. They were for the tree. + +"Let's make the tree pretty!" Anna said. + +"Yes, let's!" Ben said. + +They took the shiny things and the red things and the green things and hung them on the tree. They also made some snowballs and threw them at the tree. They laughed and had fun. + +But then they saw something else in the box. It was a star. It was yellow and bright and hot. Anna wanted to put it on the top of the tree. + +"Look, Ben, a star!" Anna said. + +"Wow, it's so hot!" Ben said. + +He touched the star and it burned his hand. He cried and dropped the star. The star fell on the snow and melted it. The snow turned into water and the water ran down the tree. The shiny things and the red things and the green things got wet and fell off the tree. The tree was not pretty anymore. + +Anna and Ben were sad and sorry. They ran inside and told their mom what happened. Their mom hugged them and gave them some ice for Ben's hand. She said it was okay and they could decorate the tree again tomorrow. She also said they should be careful with hot things and not touch them. + +Anna and Ben said they were sorry and they learned their lesson. They also said they loved their mom and the tree. They hoped the tree would be pretty again. +Tom and Lily liked to play in the big room with many books. The books were on shelves that were very high. Tom and Lily could not reach the books, but they wanted to see them. They saw a chair near the shelves. Tom had an idea. + +"Let's move the chair and climb on it. Then we can get the books," he said to Lily. + +Lily nodded. She helped Tom push the chair to the shelves. Tom climbed on the chair first. He reached for a book that had a long and shiny cover. He pulled the book, but it was very heavy. He could not hold it. He let go of the book. He released it.
