One day, Tom and Spot go to the park. They see a big tree. There is a cat on the tree. The cat is scared. It meows very loud. But Spot cannot hear it. He only sees it.

Tom says to Spot, "Look, Spot! There is a cat on the tree. It needs our help. Let's go and grab it." Spot wags his tail. He likes to help too.

Tom and Spot run to the tree. Tom climbs on the tree. He reaches for the cat. The cat is still scared. It hisses at Tom. But Tom is gentle. He says to the cat, "Don't be scared, cat. I am a hero. I will grab you and take you down."

Tom grabs the cat. He holds it close to his chest. He climbs down the tree. He gives the cat to Spot. Spot licks the cat. The cat is not scared anymore. It purrs and rubs against Spot.

Tom, Spot and the cat are happy. They are friends. They play in the park. They are heroes.
Tom and Mia like to help their dad cook. Today, dad is making a big pot of soup. He asks Tom and Mia to measure some water and pour it into the pot. Tom and Mia use a big cup and fill it with water from the tap. They count how many cups they need. One, two, three, four. They pour the water into the pot and watch it bubble.

Dad says they need to add some vegetables and some sausage to the soup. He gives Tom a carrot and a knife. He tells him to be careful and cut the carrot into small pieces. He gives Mia a celery and a knife. He tells her to do the same. Tom and Mia chop the vegetables and put them in a bowl. They feel proud of their work.

Dad takes out some sausage from the fridge. He asks Tom and Mia to help him cut it into slices. He shows them how to hold the knife and the sausage. He says they need to be very careful and not cut their fingers. Tom and Mia follow dad's instructions and cut the sausage into slices. They put them in another bowl. They smell the sausage and think it looks yummy.

Dad says they are ready to add the vegetables and the sausage to the soup. He tells Tom and Mia to stand back and watch. He takes the bowl of vegetables and pours it into the pot. He stirs the soup with a big spoon. He takes the bowl of sausage and pours it into the pot. He stirs the soup again. He says the soup needs to cook for a while. He puts a lid on the pot and turns down the heat.

Tom and Mia wait for the soup to be done. They are hungry and excited. They set the table with plates and spoons and napkins. They hear dad say the soup is ready. They run to the kitchen and see dad ladle the soup into their plates. They smell the soup and think it smells lovely. They say thank you to dad and sit down to eat.

Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys in their room. But Tom is nosy. He always wants to see what Sam has in his hands. He thinks Sam has better toys than him.

One day, Sam has a new toy. It is a shiny car that can make noises and lights. Tom wants to play with it too. He asks Sam to share, but Sam says no. He says it is his toy and he got it for his birthday. Tom is angry. He waits for Sam to look away. Then he tries to grab the car from Sam's hands.

But Sam is not stupid. He sees Tom coming. He holds the car tight and pulls it back. Tom and Sam tug and tug. They make a lot of noise. They do not hear their mom coming.

Mom opens the door and sees them fighting. She is not happy. She tells them to stop and share. She reaches for the car to take it away. But Tom and Sam do not let go. They pull harder and harder. Then, the car breaks. It makes a loud snap. The pieces fly everywhere. One piece hits Tom in the eye. He drops the car and screams. He feels a lot of pain. He cries and cries.

Mom is shocked. She drops the car too. She runs to Tom and hugs him. She says she is sorry and she will get him a band-aid. She tells Sam to say sorry too. Sam is sad. He looks at his broken car. He says sorry to Tom. He says he did not mean to hurt him. He says he will share his toys next time. Tom says it is okay. He says he is sorry too. He says he will not be nosy next time.

Anna and Ben were playing in the farm. They liked to run and jump in the wheat field. The wheat was tall and soft and made a nice sound when they moved.

But then Anna tripped on a rock and fell down. She scraped her knee and it hurt a lot. She cried and cried and Ben ran to her.

"Anna, are you okay?" Ben asked. He saw the blood on her knee and felt scared.

"It hurts, Ben, it hurts!" Anna sobbed. She held her knee and looked at Ben with big tears in her eyes.

Ben hugged Anna and tried to comfort her. He said, "Don't cry, Anna, I'm here. We can go to Mom and she will make it better. She has a band-aid and some cream for your knee. Come on, let's go."

He helped Anna stand up and they walked to the house. Mom saw them and came out. She saw Anna's knee and said, "Oh, poor Anna, what happened?"

"Anna fell in the wheat field and hurt her knee," Ben said. He was proud that he was brave and helped Anna.

Mom took Anna inside and cleaned her wound. She put a band-aid and some cream on it and kissed it gently. She said, "There, there, Anna, you'll be fine. You're a strong girl. Do you want some juice and a cookie?"

Anna nodded and smiled a little. She felt better now. She said, "Thank you, Mom. And thank you, Ben. You're a good brother."

Ben smiled too and hugged Anna. He said, "You're welcome, Anna. I love you."

They drank their juice and ate their cookies and felt happy. They decided to play with their toys instead of going back to the wheat field. They didn't want to get hurt again.
Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many toys, but they both wanted the same red car. They pulled and pushed and shouted, but neither of them would let go.

"Give me the car, it's mine!" Ben said.

"No, it's mine, I saw it first!" Lily said.

Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the two children fighting over the car and frowned. She took the car from their hands and put it on the shelf.

"Mom, that's not fair!" Ben and Lily said.

"Why are you fighting over this car?" Mom asked. "You have so many other toys to play with. Don't you know how to share?"

Ben and Lily looked at each other and felt guilty. They knew they had been selfish and rude. They lowered their heads and said nothing.

Mom sighed and said, "I'm very disappointed in you. You need to learn how to get along and respect each other. Fighting over toys is not a good way to behave. How would you feel if someone did that to you?"

Ben and Lily thought about it and realized they would feel sad and angry. They didn't want to make anyone feel that way. They looked at Mom and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We were wrong. We won't fight over toys again."

Mom smiled and said, "That's good to hear. I'm glad you understand. Now, why don't you hug each other and say sorry?"

Ben and Lily hugged each other and said sorry. They felt better and happier. They decided to play with other toys and share the red car later. Mom gave them a kiss and said, "I love you both. Now, go and have fun."

The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Fighting over toys is not nice. Respect and kindness are important.
Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were chefs and serve food to their toys. Lily made a salad with leaves and flowers. Ben made a soup with water and mud.

"Here you go, Mr. Bear," Lily said, giving him a plate. "This is a yummy salad for the summer season. It has many colors and smells good."

"Thank you, Lily," Mr. Bear said. "You are a very good chef."

"And here you go, Mrs. Bunny," Ben said, giving her a bowl. "This is a warm soup for the winter season. It has many flavors and fills your tummy."

"Thank you, Ben," Mrs. Bunny said. "You are a very good chef too."

Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy to serve their toys. They liked to make them happy.

But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a big dog. He came running into the garden. He saw the food and the toys. He wanted to eat them.

"Roof! Roof!" he barked, jumping and drooling.

Lily and Ben were fearful. They did not like the big dog. He was scary and mean. He could hurt them and their toys.

"Go away, big dog!" Lily shouted, waving her arms. "This is our food and our toys. You cannot have them."

"Go away, big dog!" Ben shouted, throwing a stick. "This is our garden and our game. You cannot spoil it."

But the big dog did not listen. He kept barking and jumping. He wanted to eat the food and the toys.

Lily and Ben did not know what to do. They were fearful and sad. They wanted the big dog to leave.

Then, they heard another noise. It was their mom. She came out of the house. She saw the big dog and the children.

"Hey, you, big dog!" she yelled, clapping her hands. "Get out of here! This is not your place. You are not welcome here."

The big dog heard the mom. He was fearful too. He did not like the mom. She was loud and angry. She could hurt him.

He turned around and ran away. He did not want to stay.

Lily and Ben were relieved. They hugged their mom. She hugged them back.

"Thank you, mom," Lily said. "You saved us and our toys. You are very brave."

"Thank you, mom," Ben said. "You scared the big dog away. You are very strong."

"You're welcome, my loves," mom said. "I'm glad you're safe and sound. You are very smart and sweet."

Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy again. They went back to serve their toys. They liked to play in the garden. They liked to be with their mom.
Lila and Tom are twins. They like to help Mom and Dad with chores. Today, they want to polish the silver spoons and forks. Mom gives them a soft cloth and a shiny bottle.

"Be careful with the bottle," Mom says. "It has polish inside. It makes the spoons and forks shiny, but it is not good to drink or touch."

Lila and Tom nod. They take the cloth and the bottle to the table. They pick up a spoon and a fork. They spray some polish on the cloth. They rub the spoon and the fork with the cloth. They see the dirt come off. They see the spoon and the fork become shiny.

"Wow, look!" Lila says. "They are so shiny! I can see my face in them!"

"Me too!" Tom says. "They are like mirrors!"

They laugh and polish more spoons and forks. They have fun and work hard. They finish all the spoons and forks. They put them back in the drawer. They bring the cloth and the bottle to Mom.

"Good job, Lila and Tom!" Mom says. "You polished the spoons and forks very well. They are ready for the meal tonight. We are having guests for dinner. You can help me set the table later."

"Yay!" Lila and Tom say. "We love to help! And we love to eat!"

Mia and Ben are twins. They like to play in the yard. They see Mom do laundry. Mom puts clothes in a big box. The box makes noise and bubbles.

"Can we help Mom?" Mia asks Ben.

Ben thinks. He likes to be kind. "Yes, we can help Mom. Let's find more clothes."

Mia and Ben run to their room. They see their toys and books. They see their dirty clothes on the floor.

"Look, Ben. Here are more clothes for Mom," Mia says.

She picks up a shirt and a sock. Ben picks up a dress and a hat. They run back to the yard.

"Mom, Mom, we have more clothes for you," they say.

Mom smiles. She is happy. She takes the clothes from Mia and Ben.

"Thank you, Mia and Ben. You are very kind. You are very helpful. But these clothes are not dirty. These are your clean clothes. You need to put them in your closet, not in the laundry."

Mia and Ben look at each other. They are confused. They do not understand.

"But Mom, how do we know which clothes are dirty and which are clean?" they ask.

Mom laughs. She hugs Mia and Ben.

"I will show you, my sweet twins. Come with me. I will teach you how to do laundry."
Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play together. But sometimes they would quarrel over their toys. One day, they found a shiny watch in their dad's drawer. They both wanted to wear it and see what it could do.

"It's mine!" Tom said, grabbing the watch.

"No, it's mine!" Lily said, pulling the watch.

They tugged and shouted, making a lot of noise. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.

"What are you doing with dad's watch?" she asked, looking angry.

"Mom, Tom took it from me!" Lily said.

"Mom, Lily took it from me!" Tom said.

Mom was confused. She did not know who was telling the truth. She took the watch from them and put it back in the drawer.

"Listen, this watch is not a toy. It is very important to dad. He uses it to tell the time and to do his work. You should not touch it without asking. And you should not quarrel over it. You should share and be nice to each other. Do you understand?" she said.

Tom and Lily nodded, feeling sorry. They hugged mom and said they were sorry. They also hugged each other and said they were sorry. Then they went to play with their own toys, and did not quarrel anymore. They learned to respect dad's watch and to be kind to each other.
Tom loved to read books. He had many books in his room. He kept them on a big bookcase. The bookcase was old and wobbly. Sometimes the books fell down and made a loud noise.

One day, Tom's dad said he had a surprise for him. He brought a new bookcase to Tom's room. It was strong and steady. It had more shelves and more space for books. Tom was very happy. He helped his dad move the books from the old bookcase to the new one. They made neat piles and sorted them by color and size.

When they finished, Tom's room looked much better. The new bookcase was full of books. The old bookcase was gone. Tom thanked his dad and gave him a hug. He picked a book and sat on his bed. He opened the book and started to read. He felt peaceful and calm. He had improved his room and his reading. He smiled and turned the page.
Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big tree with many branches. Anna wanted to climb the tree.

"Look, Ben, I can hang from this branch like a monkey!" Anna said. She grabbed the branch with her hands and lifted her legs. She swung back and forth.

"Wow, Anna, you are so graceful!" Ben said. He clapped his hands. He wanted to try too. He found another branch and hung from it. He smiled at Anna.

They had fun hanging from the tree. They pretended they were monkeys in the jungle. They made funny noises and faces.

Then they heard a bell. It was the ice-cream truck. They loved ice-cream. They let go of the branches and ran to the truck.

"Can we have ice-cream, please?" Anna asked. She had some coins in her pocket.

"Sure, what flavor do you want?" the ice-cream man asked.

"Chocolate for me, and vanilla for Ben," Anna said.

The ice-cream man gave them two cones. They licked their ice-cream and thanked him.

They sat on a bench and enjoyed their ice-cream. They were happy. They had a good day.
Poppy was a hairy dog who liked to play outside. He had a red ball that he chased and fetched with his owner, Lily. Lily was a little girl who loved Poppy very much. They were best friends.

One day, it was very cold and windy outside. Lily put on her warm coat and hat and said to Poppy, "Do you want to go for a walk?" Poppy wagged his tail and barked, "Yes, yes, yes!" He was always happy to go for a walk with Lily.

They went to the park, where there were many trees and flowers. Poppy ran around and sniffed everything. He saw a squirrel and tried to catch it, but it was too fast and climbed up a tree. Poppy barked and jumped, but he could not reach the squirrel.

Lily laughed and called him, "Poppy, come here, boy!" She threw his red ball and he ran after it. He caught it in his mouth and brought it back to her. She praised him and rubbed his ears. He licked her face and wagged his tail.

They played for a while, but then the wind got stronger and the sky got darker. Lily felt cold and said to Poppy, "We should go home, it looks like it's going to rain." Poppy nodded and followed her. He felt cold too and started to shiver. He wished he had a warm coat and hat like Lily.

They hurried back to their house, where Lily's mom was waiting for them. She saw them and said, "You two look freezing! Come inside and have some hot chocolate and cookies." She wrapped them in a big blanket and gave them a hug. Poppy and Lily smiled and thanked her. They felt warm and cozy and happy. They snuggled together and ate their treats. They were best friends.
Tom and Jen were friends who liked to play near the sea. One day, they saw a big yacht with many people on it. They wanted to go on the yacht and have fun.

They waited until the people left the yacht and then they sneaked on board. They ran around the yacht and touched everything they saw. They did not know that the yacht was not theirs and that they were doing something bad.

Soon, the people came back and saw Tom and Jen on the yacht. They were very angry and shouted at them. They told them to get off the yacht and go away. Tom and Jen were scared and ran away. They felt very foolish and sorry for what they did.

They ran back to their parents and told them what happened. Their parents were also angry and sad. They told them that they should not go on other people's things without asking and that they should respect other people's property. They also told them that they could have been hurt or lost on the yacht.

But one time, Spot did not return. He saw a hole in the ground and ran to it. He wanted to see what was inside. He sniffed and barked and dug with his paws. He did not hear Lila and Max calling him.

The hole was a pit. It was deep and dark and scary. Spot fell into the pit and hurt his leg. He cried and whimpered. He was alone and afraid. He wished he had listened to Lila and Max.

Lila and Max looked for Spot. They were worried and sad. They loved their dog. They asked other people in the park if they had seen him. They searched everywhere. Then they heard a faint sound. It was Spot's cry.

They ran to the pit and saw Spot. He was dirty and hurt. He was happy to see them. They were happy to see him. They called for help. A man came with a rope and a bucket. He lowered the bucket into the pit and lifted Spot out. He checked his leg and said it was not broken. He gave him a bandage and a treat.

Lila and Max hugged Spot and thanked the man. They learned a lesson. They would never let Spot go near a pit again. They would always keep him safe and close. Spot learned a lesson too. He would always return to Lila and Max. He would always be a good and obedient dog.
Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box of blocks in the basement. They wanted to build a castle with the blocks, but they had different ideas.

"I want to make the castle tall and strong," said Lily. "We need to use all the big blocks for the walls."

"No, I want to make the castle colorful and pretty," said Ben. "We need to use all the small blocks for the windows and doors."

They started to argue and pull the blocks from each other. They did not share or listen. They were selfish.

Their parent heard the noise and came to the basement. They saw the twins fighting over the blocks and the castle falling apart.

"What are you doing?" their parent asked. "Why are you not playing nicely?"

"Lily and Ben both want to build the castle their way," they said. "They do not want to share or compromise."

Their parent shook their head. "That is not how you play with blocks. You need to support each other and work together. You need to respect each other's ideas and find a way to make both of you happy. That is how you build a good castle and a good relationship."

Lily and Ben felt sorry for their behavior. They realized they were selfish and hurt each other's feelings. They apologized and hugged each other.

"Let's try again," said Lily. "We can use some big blocks and some small blocks. We can make the castle tall and colorful."

"Okay," said Ben. "We can use some strong blocks and some pretty blocks. We can make the castle strong and pretty."

They smiled and started to build the castle again. They supported each other and worked together. They respected each other's ideas and found a way to make both of them happy. They built a good castle and a good relationship.

Tim says, "I am sorry. I was wrong. I was rude. I should not have left you. I should have stayed with you. Can we be friends again?"

Sara tries to find her cards. She sees some on the floor, some on the sofa, some under the table. She picks them up and puts them in a pile. She hopes she can find all the cards and make them match again.

But then she sees something that makes her cry. One of her cards is broken. It is the card with the lion on it. It is her favorite card. She loves the lion. It is big and strong and has a mane. But now the card is torn in half. She cannot match it with the other lion card. She cannot fix it. It is broken forever.

Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a pond with many ducks and frogs. They wanted to feed them and watch them swim.

"Let's go to the pond!" Lily said. "We can bring some bread and seeds."

"OK!" Ben said. "But we have to be tidy. We can't leave any mess or make any noise. The pond is not ours."

They took a basket and filled it with bread and seeds. Then they marched to the pond, holding hands. They were happy and excited.

When they got to the pond, they saw a big sign that said: "Do not feed the animals. Do not enter the water. Do not litter. This pond is for wildlife only."

But Lily and Ben did not read the sign. They did not know what it meant. They thought it was just a picture. They ignored it and went to the edge of the pond.

They threw some bread and seeds into the water. The ducks and frogs came closer. They quacked and croaked. Lily and Ben laughed and clapped.

They threw more bread and seeds. They wanted to see more animals. They did not notice that the water was getting dirty and cloudy. They did not notice that the animals were getting sick and angry.

They threw all the bread and seeds. They had nothing left. They wanted to touch the animals. They leaned over the water. They reached out their hands.

But the animals did not like that. They felt scared and hurt. They bit and scratched. They splashed and sprayed.

Lily and Ben screamed and cried. They fell into the water. They got wet and muddy. They got hurt and sick.

They tried to get out of the pond. But they could not. The water was too deep and slippery. The animals were too many and fierce.

They called for help. But no one heard them. No one came. They were alone and trapped.

They wished they had read the sign. They wished they had been tidy. They wished they had not gone to the pond.

The moral of the story is: Respect nature and follow the rules. Or you might regret it.
Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in the garden. One day, they see a big van in front of their house. The van is empty. It has a big scale on the back.

"Look, Lily, a van!" Tom says. "Let's go and see!"

They run to the van and climb on the scale. The scale has a big number on it.

"What is this number?" Lily asks.

"It is how much we weigh," Tom says. "I weigh 15 and you weigh 14."

"Wow, we are big!" Lily says.

They jump off the scale and look inside the van. There are no boxes or bags in the van. Only a man with a hat and a clipboard.

"Hello, kids," the man says. "What are you doing here?"

"We are playing with the van," Tom says. "It is empty and has a scale."

The man smiles. "I see. Well, I am here to pick up some things from your house. Your mom and dad are moving to a new house. They have packed all your things in other vans. This van is for the last things."

Tom and Lily feel sad. They like their house and their garden. They don't want to move.

"But we don't want to move," Lily says. "We like it here."

The man nods. "I understand. Moving can be hard. But you will like your new house too. It has a bigger garden and a swing and a slide. And you can take all your toys with you. Don't worry, kids. You will be happy there."

Tom and Lily look at each other. They are still sad, but they are curious too. They wonder what their new house will look like. They hope it will be nice.

"OK, then," Tom says. "Can we help you with the last things?"

The man laughs. "Sure, why not? You can help me weigh them and put them in the van. Come on, let's go."

Tom and Lily follow the man to their house. They help him weigh and load the last things in the van. They see their mom and dad waiting for them. They hug them and say goodbye to their house.

But then, Ben sees a cross on the wall. He thinks it is a block too. He wants to take it and put it on the tower. He climbs on a chair and reaches for the cross.

Anna sees what Ben is doing. She knows the cross is not a block. She knows the cross is important for Mom and Dad. They say it is a gift from Grandma. She does not want Ben to break it or lose it.

She shouts, "No, Ben, no! That is not a block! That is Mom and Dad's cross! Put it back!"

But Ben does not listen. He pulls the cross from the wall. He is happy. He thinks it is a nice block.

Anna is angry. She runs to Ben and slaps his hand. The cross falls from his hand and breaks on the floor. It makes a loud noise.

Mom and Dad hear the noise. They come to the room and see the broken cross. They are sad and mad. They ask, "What happened? Who did this?"

Anna and Ben are scared. They do not know what to say. They look at each other and start to cry.
Tom and Lily were friends who lived next to each other. They liked to play in their yards with their toys. One day, Tom saw a new toy car in Lily's yard. It was shiny and red and had big wheels. Tom wanted the toy car very much.

He waited until Lily went inside her house to get a drink. Then he ran to her yard and took the toy car. He hid it under his shirt and ran back to his yard. He put the toy car in his toy box and smiled. He thought Lily would not notice.

But Lily did notice. She came back outside and looked for her toy car. She could not find it anywhere. She felt sad and angry. She asked Tom, "Did you see my toy car? It was here before."

Tom lied and said, "No, I did not see it. Maybe you lost it." He hoped Lily would go away.

But Lily did not go away. She saw a bulge under Tom's shirt. She said, "What is that under your shirt? Is that my toy car?"

Tom felt scared and guilty. He said, "No, it is not. It is my shirt. It is too big for me."

But Lily did not believe him. She pulled his shirt and saw the toy car. She said, "You stole my toy car! That is very bad! Give it back to me!"

Tom felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "I am sorry, Lily. I stole your toy car because I liked it. But that was wrong. Here, take it back. I am sorry."

Lily took her toy car and said, "Thank you, Tom. I am glad you are sorry. But you should not steal. Stealing is not nice. It hurts people's feelings. If you want to play with my toy car, you can ask me. I can share with you. We are friends, right?"

Tom nodded and said, "Yes, we are friends. I am sorry, Lily. Can you forgive me?"

Lily smiled and said, "Yes, I can forgive you. But you have to promise me you will not steal again. OK?"

Tom promised and said, "OK, I will not steal again. I am sorry, Lily. Can we play together?"

Lily said, "Yes, we can play together. But let's play with something else. It is too mild today. The toy car might melt in the sun."

They laughed and went to play with their balls. They were friends again.
Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily was a lion and Ben was a monkey.

Suddenly, they heard a loud sound from the kitchen. It was like water splashing and spilling. They ran to see what was happening. They saw that the sink was overflowing and water was everywhere. It was a flood!

"Oh no!" Lily said. "Mommy is at work and we are alone. What do we do?"

Ben thought for a moment. He remembered that Mommy had a phone in her bag. He ran to get it and called Mommy.

"Mommy, Mommy, there is a flood in the kitchen!" he said.

"What? A flood? How did that happen?" Mommy asked.

"I don't know. The sink is full of water and it is going everywhere. We are scared," Ben said.

Mommy told them to stay calm and not to touch the water. She said she would come home as soon as possible and call someone to fix the sink. She said she loved them and hung up.

Lily and Ben waited for Mommy in the living room. They moved their toys away from the water and tried to cheer up. They sang some songs and told some jokes. They hoped Mommy would come soon.

After a while, they heard the door open. It was Mommy! She hugged them and said she was sorry for the flood. She said someone was coming to make the water go away and make the sink work again. She said they were brave and good.

She took them to the bathroom and washed their hands and faces. She gave them some cookies and milk. She said they could watch a movie together until the flood was gone.

Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy Mommy was home and that everything would be clear soon. They loved Mommy and each other. They forgot about the flood and enjoyed the movie.
Tom and Lily wanted to buy a stamp for their grandma. They had a nice picture of them and their dog to send her. They asked their mom for some money and she gave them two coins. She told them to be careful and come back soon.

They walked to the store and looked for the stamps. They saw many things in the store, like candy, toys, books and cards. But they did not see any stamps. They asked a man who worked in the store, "Where are the stamps?"

The man looked at them and said, "We don't have any stamps. We ran out of them yesterday. You have to go to another store."

Tom and Lily felt frustrated. They did not know where another store was. They did not want to walk too far. They did not want to lose their money. They did not want to make their mom worry. They did not want to disappoint their grandma.

They started to cry. They did not know what to do. They wished they had stayed home with their mom and their dog. They wished they had never wanted to buy a stamp. They wished they had never gone to the store.
Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today they see a big stage. There are many people on the stage. They are singing and dancing. Lily and Ben want to watch.

They sit on the grass. They see a man with a hat. He is the leader. He tells the people what to do. He says, "Now we will sing a song about being healthy. Do you know what healthy means?" The people on the stage nod. Lily and Ben nod too.

The man says, "Healthy means you eat good food, you drink water, you sleep well, and you move a lot. Can you sing with us?" The people on the stage start to sing. They sing, "We are healthy, we are happy, we are strong and smart. We are healthy, we are happy, we are good at heart." Lily and Ben like the song. They sing along.

The song ends. The people on the stage smile. The man says, "Thank you for singing with us. You are all healthy and happy too. Let's give a big clap to ourselves and to each other." He claps his hands. The people on the stage clap their hands. Lily and Ben clap their hands. They hear many other people clap their hands. They look around. They see many people on the grass. They are all clapping. Lily and Ben feel happy.

They stand up. They walk to the stage. They want to say thank you to the man and the people. The man sees them. He says, "Hello, little ones. Did you enjoy the show?" Lily and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, we did. Thank you for the song. It was fun and nice." The man says, "You are very welcome. You have good manners. What are your names?" Lily and Ben tell him their names. The man says, "Nice to meet you, Lily and Ben. You are very cute. Do you want to join us on the stage?" Lily and Ben say, "Yes, please." The man says, "Come on, then. Let's go to the side. There is more room there." He takes their hands. He leads them to the side of the stage. The people on the stage make room for them. They say hello to Lily and Ben. They hug them. They give them hats. They say, "Welcome to our group. You are our new friends." Lily and Ben feel happy. They smile. They say, "Thank you. You are our new friends too." They all laugh. They all sing. They all dance. They all applaud.
Anna and her daddy were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. Anna saw a big dog with a ball in his mouth. She wanted to pet the dog and play with the ball. She ran to the dog and said, "Hi, doggy! Can I have your ball?"

The dog did not like Anna. He growled and barked. He showed his teeth and bit Anna's hand. Anna cried and dropped the ball. The dog ran away with the ball. Anna's hand hurt and bled. She was scared and sad.

Daddy heard Anna's cry. He ran to Anna and hugged her. He said, "Don't worry, Anna. I'm here. I'll rescue you. You're brave and strong." He took off his shirt and wrapped it around Anna's hand. He carried her to the car and drove to the doctor.

The doctor was nice and gentle. He cleaned Anna's hand and put a bandage on it. He gave Anna a sticker and a lollipop. He said, "You'll be fine, Anna. The dog was bad, but you're good. You're a good girl." Anna smiled and thanked the doctor.

Daddy drove Anna home and tucked her in bed. He gave her a kiss and a hug. He said, "I love you, Anna. You're my sweet girl. You're safe and warm." Anna said, "I love you, daddy. You're my hero. You rescued me." They both fell asleep.
Tommy loved his dog Spot. Spot was a big dog with brown fur and a white spot on his chest. Tommy liked to play with Spot in the yard. They would run, jump, and fetch a ball.

One day, Tommy saw a purple car stop in front of his house. He wondered who it was. He ran to the window and saw a man get out of the car. The man had a white coat and a bag. He was a veterinarian. Tommy knew what a veterinarian was. He had seen one before when Spot had a hurt paw.

The man knocked on the door. Tommy's mom opened it and invited him in. Tommy followed them to the living room, where Spot was lying on a rug. Spot looked sad and tired. He did not wag his tail when he saw Tommy.

"Hello, Tommy," the man said. "I'm Dr. Lee. I'm here to help Spot. He's very sick, you know."

Tommy nodded. He knew Spot was sick. He had heard his mom and dad talk about it. They said Spot had a bad thing in his body that made him hurt.

Dr. Lee opened his bag and took out a needle. He filled it with a liquid. He said it was medicine for Spot. He said it would make Spot feel better and not hurt anymore.

Tommy was scared. He did not like needles. He thought they hurt. He did not want Spot to hurt more. He ran to Spot and hugged him.

"No, no, no!" Tommy cried. "Don't shoot Spot! Don't shoot him!"

Dr. Lee looked at Tommy with a sad smile. He tried to explain to Tommy that he was not going to shoot Spot. He was going to give him a shot. He said a shot was different from a shoot. He said a shoot was a loud noise that came from a gun. He said a gun was a bad thing that could hurt people and animals. He said a shot was a small poke that came from a needle. He said a needle was a good thing that could help people and animals.

Tommy did not understand. He did not know the difference between a shoot and a shot. He only knew that he loved Spot and he did not want him to go away. He held Spot tighter and sobbed.

Dr. Lee sighed. He looked at Tommy's mom. She nodded. She understood. She picked up Tommy and held him in her arms. She whispered to him that she loved him and Spot. She said Spot was going to a better place where he would not be sick anymore. She said they would always remember him and miss him.

Dr. Lee gently stroked Spot's head. He said he was sorry. He said he wished he could do more. He said he hoped Spot would be happy and peaceful. He gave Spot the shot. Spot closed his eyes and stopped breathing.

Tommy felt Spot go limp. He felt his mom's tears on his cheek. He felt his own tears on his nose. He felt a big hole in his heart. He said goodbye to Spot. He said he loved him. He said he was sorry.
Tom and Ann like to play on the farm. They like to run and jump and see the animals. One day, they see a big cow in the field. The cow is black and white and has horns.

"Look, a cow!" Tom says. "Let's go and say hello."

"No, Tom, cows are not for playing. They are big and strong and can hurt us," Ann says. "We should stay away."

But Tom does not listen. He runs to the cow and tries to jump on its back. He wants to ride the cow like a horse. The cow does not like that. It moos loudly and shakes its head. It kicks Tom with its hoof and throws him off.

"Tom, Tom, are you okay?" Ann cries. She runs to Tom and sees blood on his face. He is not moving. He is very hurt.

"Help, help, someone help us!" Ann shouts. But no one hears her. They are too far from the house. They are not safe. They are in trouble.

One day, they saw a big tree in the field. The tree had a swing. Lily and Tom ran to the tree. They wanted to try the swing.

"Can I go first?" Lily asked.

"OK, you can go first. But not for too long," Tom said.

Lily climbed on the swing. She held the rope tight. Tom pushed her gently. Lily felt happy. She swung high and low. She saw the sky and the grass.

"Wow, this is fun!" Lily said.

Tom waited for his turn. He watched Lily swing. He felt bored. He wanted to swing too.

"Lily, can I swing now?" Tom asked.

"Just a little more, please," Lily said.

Tom waited some more. He watched Lily swing. He felt angry. He wanted to swing now.

"Lily, it's my turn!" Tom said.

"No, it's not. I'm still swinging," Lily said.

Tom and Lily started to argue. They shouted at each other. They forgot to have fun.

A bird was sitting on the tree. The bird heard Tom and Lily argue. The bird felt sad. The bird liked the field. The bird liked the swing. The bird wanted Tom and Lily to be happy.

The bird flew down from the tree. The bird landed on the swing. The bird pushed Lily off the swing. Lily fell on the grass. She was surprised. She was not hurt.

The bird climbed on the swing. The bird held the rope with its feet. The bird swung high and low. The bird saw the sky and the grass.

"Tweet, tweet, this is fun!" the bird said.

Tom and Lily saw the bird on the swing. They stopped arguing. They looked at the bird. They felt silly. They felt sorry.

They ran to the bird. They smiled at the bird. They thanked the bird.

"Sorry, bird. We were mean. You can have the swing," Tom said.

"Sorry, bird. We were selfish. You can share the swing," Lily said.

The bird smiled at Tom and Lily. The bird liked Tom and Lily. The bird wanted to be friends.

The bird flew off the swing. The bird landed on the grass. The bird invited Tom and Lily.

"Tweet, tweet, come and play with me!" the bird said.

Tom and Lily climbed on the swing. They held the rope together. The bird pushed them gently. Tom and Lily felt happy. They swung high and low. They saw the sky and the grass.

"Wow, this is fun!" Tom and Lily said.

The bird, Tom and Lily played in the field. The field had many flowers and butterflies. It was a lovely field.

One day, Lily and Ben see a big truck at the park. The truck has a lot of boxes. The boxes have pictures of animals on them. Lily and Ben are curious. They want to see the animals.

They go to the truck and open a box. Inside the box, there is a cell. The cell has a bird in it. The bird is blue and yellow. It is very pretty. Lily and Ben say hello to the bird.

The bird says hello back. Lily and Ben are surprised. They think the bird can talk. They ask the bird its name. The bird says its name is Polly. They ask the bird where it comes from. The bird says it comes from the zoo.

Lily and Ben are confused. They think the zoo is a place for animals. They ask the bird why it is in a box. The bird says it is going to a new home. It says it is happy to go to a new home. It says it likes to travel.

Lily and Ben are happy for the bird. They think the bird is very smart. They say goodbye to the bird. They close the box. They go to another box. They open it. Inside the box, there is a cell. The cell has a phone in it. The phone is black and shiny. It is very boring.

Lily and Ben are disappointed. They think the phone is not an animal. They think the phone cannot talk. They think the phone is silly. They say goodbye to the phone. They close the box. They go back to the slide, the swing, and the seesaw. They have fun.
On Wednesday, Lily and her mom went to the park. Lily liked the park. She could play on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. She saw many other kids and animals there.

"Look, mom, a dog!" Lily said, pointing to a big brown dog that ran by. "Can I pet him?"

"Sure, but ask the owner first," her mom said. They walked over to the dog and his owner, a nice lady with a red hat. "Hello, can my daughter pet your dog?" mom asked.

"Of course, his name is Max. He is very friendly," the lady said. She smiled and let Lily touch Max's fur. Max licked Lily's hand and wagged his tail. Lily giggled.

"Hi, Max, you are a good dog. Do you like the park?" Lily asked. Max barked and nodded. Lily hugged him and said, "I like the park too. It makes me happy."

The end.
Mia loved to play in the garden. She liked to look for bugs and flowers and pretend she was a fairy. She had a fairy dress and a fairy wand that her mom made for her. She felt happy and peaceful in the garden.

One day, she saw a real fairy in the garden. The fairy was small and had wings and a crown. She was hiding behind a rose bush. Mia was very excited and ran to the fairy.

"Hello, fairy! I am Mia. Do you want to play with me?" Mia asked.

The fairy looked scared and shy. She said, "Hello, Mia. I am Lily. I am sorry, but I cannot play with you. I have to go home soon. My mom is waiting for me."

Mia felt sad and curious. She said, "Why do you have to go home? Where do you live? Can I see your home?"

Lily said, "I live in the fairy land. It is far away from here. You cannot see it. It is a secret. I have to fly there before the sun goes down. If I delay, I will get in trouble."

Mia said, "Please, Lily, can you stay a little longer? I want to be your friend. I have a fairy dress and a fairy wand. We can have fun together."

Lily said, "I want to be your friend too, Mia. But I have to follow the rules. The fairy land is not safe for humans. There are dangers and traps. You could get hurt or lost. Please, do not be mad at me."

Mia said, "I am not mad at you, Lily. I understand. But I will miss you. Can you come back another day?"

Lily said, "Maybe, Mia. Maybe I can come back another day. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not tell anyone about me. You have to keep me a secret. Can you do that?"

Mia said, "Yes, Lily. I can do that. I promise. You are my secret fairy friend."

Lily said, "Thank you, Mia. You are very kind and sweet. I have to go now. Goodbye, Mia."

Lily gave Mia a hug and a kiss. Then she flew away in the sky. Mia waved goodbye and smiled. She hoped to see Lily again. She went back to her house and told her mom that she had a great time in the garden. She did not tell her mom about Lily. She kept her promise. She kept her secret.
Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were animals or cars or planes. Their aunt was sitting on the couch, reading a big book. She had glasses and gray hair. She was very old, but she was nice.

"Look, Lily, I'm a lion!" Tom said, and he roared and crawled on the floor. He had a yellow toy lion in his hand.

"I'm a bird!" Lily said, and she flapped her arms and chirped. She had a blue toy bird in her hand.

They ran around the room, making loud sounds. Their aunt smiled and watched them. She liked to see them happy.

But then, Tom bumped into the coffee table and knocked over a vase. The vase was ancient. It was from their aunt's country, where she was born. It was very pretty and very fragile. It fell on the floor and broke into many pieces.

"Oh no!" Tom said, and he stopped. He was scared.

"Oh no!" Lily said, and she stopped too. She was scared too.

Their aunt gasped and put down her book. She got up and walked to the broken vase. She was angry and sad.

"Tom, what did you do?" she said, and she slapped his hand. "This vase was very important to me. It was a gift from my mother. It was very old and very rare. You were very careless and very naughty."

Tom felt a sting in his hand and tears in his eyes. He didn't mean to break the vase. He was sorry.

"I'm sorry, auntie, I'm sorry!" he said, and he hugged her leg. "I didn't see the vase. I was playing. I didn't want to hurt you."

Lily felt sorry too. She wanted to help.

"I'm sorry too, auntie, I'm sorry!" she said, and she hugged her other leg. "We love you. We love the vase. Can we fix it?"

Their aunt looked at them and sighed. She was still angry and sad, but she loved them too. She bent down and hugged them back.

"I love you too, Tom and Lily, I love you too," she said. "But you have to be more careful and more respectful. The vase can't be fixed. It's gone forever. But we still have each other. And we still have memories. Come, I'll tell you a story about the vase and my mother and my country. Maybe you'll learn something."
Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. They found a big beetle with shiny wings. Lily wanted to keep it as a pet, but Ben said no.

"It is too scary," he said. "It might bite you or fly away."

Lily did not listen. She put the beetle in a jar and made some holes in the lid. She gave it some leaves and water. She said it was her new friend.

The next day, Lily took the jar to show Ben. But when she opened the lid, the beetle was gone. She looked inside and saw a hole in the bottom. The beetle had escaped.

"Where is it?" she cried. "I want my beetle back!"

Ben heard a buzzing sound behind him. He turned around and saw the beetle flying towards his face. He screamed and ran away.

"Help! Help! The beetle is chasing me!" he shouted.

Lily laughed. She thought it was funny. She ran after Ben and the beetle.

"Come back, beetle!" she called. "You are not scary. You are my friend!"

She picks up Anna and hugs her. She picks up the doll and gives it to Anna. Anna stops crying. She says, "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Ben."

Mom says, "You're welcome, Anna. You're very brave. And Ben, you're very kind. You helped your sister."

She looks for Ben's car. She sees it under a shelf. She gets it and gives it to Ben. Ben smiles. He says, "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Anna."

They tug and tug. They do not see the pot on the stove. The pot is boiling. The water spills over. It makes a loud noise. It scares Sara and Ben. They drop the car. They run to mom.

Mom hears the noise. She sees the mess. She is not happy. She says, "What did you do? You disturbed the pot. You made a big mess. You could have burned yourself. Why did you fight over the car?"

Sara and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We were jealous of each other's toy. We did not listen to you. We will not do it again."

Mom hugs them. She says, "I am glad you are safe. But you need to share your toys. And you need to obey me. Do you understand?"

Sara and Ben nod. They say, "We understand, mom. We love you."

Mom smiles. She says, "I love you too. Now help me clean up the mess. And then we can have some soup. But no onion. It makes your eyes water."

"But mom, we are not sleepy. We want to play with our dolls and cars," Lily says.

Lily was very sad and said, "I hate that flower!"

Her mom told her that it's not nice to hate things and that she should try to understand why her neighbor didn't want her to pick the flower. Lily thought about it and realized that her neighbor probably wanted to keep the flower so that it could keep growing and be beautiful for a long time.

Lily went back to her neighbor's house and said, "I'm sorry for saying I hate your flower. I understand that you want to keep it so that it can stay beautiful." Her neighbor smiled and said, "Thank you for understanding, Lily. Maybe one day I can give you a flower from my garden."

The old man searched for the shoe and found it under a bush. Lily was so happy and thanked the old man. The old man replied, "It's okay, I am happy to help. Remember, when you have a problem, always ask for help. It's the smart thing to do."

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved going to the zoo with her mommy and daddy. One day, they went to the zoo and Lily saw a big elephant. She wanted to take a picture with the elephant, but her mommy said they didn't have a camera. 

Lily was sad, but then her daddy said they could record a video of her and the elephant with his phone. Lily was happy and they recorded the video. After that, they went to the zoo office to get a ticket for the train ride. The lady at the office said everything was normal and gave them a ticket. 

On the train ride, Lily showed the video to her mommy and daddy. They all laughed and had fun watching it. When they got off the train, Lily said, "I want to record another video with the monkeys!" Her mommy and daddy smiled and said, "Sure, let's go!"
Once upon a time, there was a little bunny named Fluffy. Fluffy had a friendly dog friend named Spot. They loved to play together in the garden. 

One day, Fluffy found a powder on the ground. He didn't know what it was, but he wanted to touch it. When he touched it, it felt funny and he didn't like it. Spot saw what Fluffy was doing and warned him not to touch it again. 

A few days later, Fluffy found an old apple that started to rot. Spot told Fluffy not to eat it because it was not good for him. Fluffy listened to his friend and they continued to play together in the garden, always watching out for each other.
Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big box in the mailbox. They are very curious. They want to open the box.

But Mom says no. She says the box is not for them. She says it is a surprise for Dad. He will come home soon. Ben and Mia are sad. They want to see the surprise.

They wait and wait. But Dad does not come. Mom says he is stuck in traffic. It is a bad day. Ben and Mia are bored. They look at the box. They have an idea.

They sneak to the mailbox. They open the box. They see a cake. It has candles and words. It says "Happy Birthday Dad". Ben and Mia are happy. They love cake. They take the cake. They run to the backyard. They eat the cake.

But Mom sees them. She is angry. She says they are bad. They ruined the surprise. They made a mess. They have to say sorry. Ben and Mia are sorry. They cry. They hug Mom. They say they love her.

Sam and Mia liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They made roads and bridges with their blocks and books. Sometimes they pretended that their cars were racing each other.

One day, they found a big red cone in the garage. It was a toy volcano that their dad had bought for them. They were very excited. They put the volcano in the middle of their play area and added some baking soda and vinegar. They wanted to see the volcano erupt.

"Ready, set, go!" Sam shouted. He and Mia pushed their cars towards the volcano. They wanted to see who could get closer to the volcano without getting hit by the lava. The volcano started to bubble and fizz. Then it spewed out a stream of foam and water.

"Wow, look at that!" Mia exclaimed. She watched the volcano with wonder. She was not afraid of the lava. She thought it was fun.

Sam was not so brave. He was worried that the lava would hurt his car. He stopped his car far away from the volcano. He did not want to get wet or dirty.

"Mia, be careful!" he cried. "The lava is hot and dangerous. It can melt your car. Come back here!"

Mia laughed. She did not listen to Sam. She pushed her car closer and closer to the volcano. She wanted to win the race. She did not think the lava was hot or dangerous. She thought it was cool and funny.

But then, something happened. The volcano erupted again. This time, it was bigger and louder. The foam and water flew everywhere. Some of it landed on Mia's car. Mia gasped. She saw that her car was covered in white and sticky stuff. She did not like it.

"Sam, help!" she shouted. She tried to pull her car back. But it was too late. The lava had glued her car to the ground. She could not move it.

Sam ran to Mia. He saw that her car was stuck. He felt sorry for her. He also felt a little proud. He had won the race.

"Don't worry, Mia," he said. "I will help you. We can wash your car and make it clean again. Then we can play with the volcano some more. But next time, let's be more careful, okay?"

Mia nodded. She was glad that Sam was her brother. She hugged him and thanked him. Then they went to wash their cars and play with the volcano again. They had a lot of fun.
Lily and Tom are friends. They go to the same school. Every day, they ride the bus together. The bus is big and yellow. It makes a loud noise.

One day, the bus is very busy. There are many children on the bus. Lily and Tom cannot sit next to each other. They have to sit with other children. Lily feels sad. She misses Tom.

"Tom, where are you?" Lily calls.

"I'm here, Lily. I'm sorry. There is no space for us." Tom says.

Lily looks out the window. She sees trees and houses. She does not see Tom. She feels more sad.

The bus stops at the school. Lily and Tom get off the bus. They run to each other. They hug.

"I'm happy to see you, Lily. You are my best friend." Tom says.

"I'm happy to see you, Tom. You are my best friend too." Lily says.

They smile and hold hands. They go to their classroom. They are not sad anymore. They are happy.
Lily liked to listen to the sounds of the garden. She heard birds, bees, and frogs. She saw flowers, grass, and trees. She also saw a beetle. The beetle was black and shiny. It crawled on a leaf.

Lily wanted to play with the beetle. She reached out her hand to touch it. But the beetle did not want to play. It was lazy. It did not move. It did not make any sound. It just stayed on the leaf.

Lily was sad. She tried to make the beetle move. She blew on it. She tapped on it. She shook the leaf. But the beetle did not care. It did not move. It did not make any sound. It just stayed on the leaf.

Lily was angry. She did not like the lazy beetle. She wanted to make it go away. She picked up a stick. She poked the beetle with the stick. But the beetle did not mind. It did not move. It did not make any sound. It just stayed on the leaf.

Lily was surprised. She saw another beetle. The other beetle was red and spotty. It flew in the air. It made a buzzing sound. It landed on the same leaf as the black beetle. The black beetle moved. It made a clicking sound. It crawled to the red beetle. The beetles touched each other. They looked happy.

Lily learned something. She learned that the black beetle was not lazy. It was just waiting. It was waiting for its friend. The red beetle was its friend. The beetles liked each other. They liked to be on the leaf.

Lily smiled. She was happy for the beetles. She was happy to listen to their sounds. She was happy to see their colors. She did not want to play with them anymore. She wanted to let them be. She put down the stick. She said goodbye to the beetles. She went to find other things to listen to in the garden.
Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They saw a big vase on the table. It had pretty flowers in it. The flowers smelled sweet.

"Let's smell the flowers," Lily said. She climbed on a chair and reached for the vase.

"Be careful, Lily," Ben said. "The vase is heavy. It can fall and break."

But Lily did not listen. She pulled the vase to her and sniffed the flowers. The vase was too heavy for her. It slipped from her hands and fell to the floor. It broke into many pieces. The water and the flowers spilled everywhere.

"Oh no!" Lily cried. "We broke the vase! Mommy will be mad!"

Ben was scared too. He ran to the couch and lay down. He covered his head with a pillow. He hoped Mommy would not see the mess.

But Mommy heard the noise. She came to the living room and saw the broken vase and the wet floor. She was not happy.

"What happened here?" Mommy asked. She looked at Lily and Ben.

Lily and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to break the vase. They wanted to smell the sweet flowers.

"We're sorry, Mommy," Lily said. "We wanted to smell the flowers. But the vase was heavy. It fell and broke."

Mommy sighed. She was not happy, but she was not angry. She knew Lily and Ben were little. They did not know better.

"It's okay, Lily and Ben," Mommy said. "I'm glad you like the flowers. But next time, please ask me before you touch the vase. It is fragile. It can break easily. And it can hurt you."

Mommy hugged Lily and Ben. She told them to help her clean the mess. She gave them a towel and a broom. They wiped the water and swept the pieces. They put the flowers in a new vase. They put the new vase on a high shelf. They could still see the flowers, but they could not touch them.

Lily and Ben learned their lesson. They did not touch the vase again. They only smelled the flowers from far away. They said sorry to Mommy again. Mommy said she loved them. She gave them a sweet kiss.
Sara loved to feed the butterflies in the garden. She had a special cup with sugar water that she held out for them. She liked to watch them drink with their long tongues and flap their pretty wings.

One day, she saw a butterfly that looked very weak. It was lying on a leaf and did not move. Sara felt sad and wanted to help it. She gently picked it up and brought it to her cup. She said, "Here, little butterfly, drink some water. It will make you feel better."

But the butterfly did not drink. It was too weak to lift its head. Sara did not know what to do. She remembered that her mom had a book about butterflies. She ran inside and looked for it. She found a picture of the weak butterfly. It said that it was a monarch butterfly and that it needed milkweed to eat.

Sara ran back to the garden. She looked for a milkweed plant. She saw one near the fence. She broke off a piece and brought it to the butterfly. She said, "Here, little butterfly, eat some milkweed. It will make you strong."

The butterfly smelled the milkweed and nibbled on it. It felt a little better. It lifted its head and looked at Sara. It thanked her with a soft flutter. Sara smiled and said, "You're welcome, little butterfly. I'm glad you're feeling better."

She put the butterfly on a flower and watched it eat and drink. She hoped it would fly away soon and join the other butterflies. She felt happy that she had helped a friend.
Anna likes to play with her dolls. She has many dolls, but her favorite is Lily. Lily has long hair and a pink dress. Anna likes to brush Lily's hair and make her look pretty.

One day, Anna finds a pair of pants in her closet. They are not her pants. They are big and blue and have many pockets. Anna thinks they are unusual. She wonders who they belong to. She decides to try them on Lily.

Anna takes off Lily's dress and puts on the pants. They are too big for Lily. They cover her feet and drag on the floor. Anna thinks Lily looks funny. She laughs and says, "Lily, you look like a clown!"

Anna hears a knock on the door. It is her brother, Ben. Ben is older than Anna. He likes to play with cars and trucks. He sees Lily in the pants and says, "Hey, those are my pants! Why did you take them?"

Anna says, "I found them in my closet. I wanted to see how they look on Lily. Do you like them?"

Ben says, "No, I don't like them. They are my pants, not Lily's. Give them back to me!"

Anna says, "But Lily likes them. She thinks they are unusual. Can she keep them?"

Ben says, "No, she can't keep them. They are too big for her. She can't walk in them. She will trip and fall. They are not for dolls. They are for boys."

Anna says, "Please, Ben. Can you offer Lily something else? Maybe a hat or a scarf or a jacket? Something that will make her look pretty?"

Ben thinks for a moment. He likes his sister, but he also likes his pants. He looks around his room and sees a red cap. He says, "Okay, Anna. I will offer Lily this cap. It will keep her head warm and match her dress. But you have to give me back my pants."

Anna says, "Thank you, Ben. You are very nice. Lily will love the cap. Here are your pants."

Anna and Ben trade the pants and the cap. Anna puts the cap on Lily and says, "Lily, you look beautiful. You have a new friend. His name is Ben. He offered you this cap. Can you say thank you?"

Lily says, "Thank you, Ben. You are very kind. I like your cap. It is unusual."

Ben says, "You're welcome, Lily. You are very sweet. I like your dress. It is pink."

Anna says, "Lily and Ben, you are both very good. I like you both. Can we play together?"

Ben says, "Sure, Anna. We can play together. What do you want to play?"

Anna says, "Let's play with the dolls and the cars and the trucks. We can have a lot of fun."

Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But sometimes they make a mess. Mom does not like that.

One day, Mom says, "Sara and Tom, it is time to take a bath. Come on, let's go to the bathroom." Sara and Tom do not want to go. They want to play more. They say, "No, Mom, we are not dirty. We do not need a bath."

Mom says, "Yes, you do. Look at your hands and feet. They are dirty. And your hair is messy. And your clothes are stained. You need a bath to be clean and fresh. Come on, it will be fun. I have a new soap that smells sweet. And you can use your bathrobes after the bath. They are soft and warm. Don't you like your bathrobes?"

Sara and Tom think for a moment. They do like their bathrobes. They are blue and pink. They have hoods and pockets. They are cozy and snug. They say, "OK, Mom, we will take a bath. But can we play with our toys in the water?"

Mom says, "Sure, you can. But only for a little while. Then you have to wash and rinse well. And then you have to dry and hang your bathrobes on the hooks. Can you do that?"

Sara and Tom say, "Yes, Mom, we can. We are big kids. We can hang our bathrobes by ourselves." They smile and hug Mom. They go to the bathroom with Mom. They have a fun bath. They use the sweet soap. They play with their toys. They wash and rinse well. They dry and hang their bathrobes on the hooks. They are clean and fresh. They are happy and proud. Mom is happy and proud too.

Lily and Sam were friends who liked to paint. They had many colors and pages to make pretty pictures. One day, they went to the park with their paint and pages. They found a nice spot under a big tree and started to paint.

Lily painted a flower with red and yellow. Sam painted a car with blue and green. They were happy and shared their colors and pages. But then, a big dog came and ran to them. The dog wanted to play, but he did not know how to paint. He jumped on their pages and made them dirty. He also knocked over their paint and spilled it on the grass.

Lily and Sam were sad and angry. They shouted at the dog. "Go away, bad dog! You spoiled our paint and pages! You are not our friend!" The dog was scared and ran away. He did not mean to spoil their paint and pages. He just wanted to have fun.

Lily and Sam looked at their paint and pages. They were all ruined. They could not make any more pictures. They felt sorry for the dog. They realized that he did not know any better. They wished they had been nicer to him.

They decided to go and find the dog. They wanted to say sorry and make friends. They took some of their paint and pages that were not too dirty. They hoped the dog would like them. They learned that they should be kind and gentle to animals, even if they make mistakes. They also learned that they should not let their anger spoil their fun.
Lily and Max were playing with their toy phones. They liked to pretend they were talking to each other from far away. Lily had a pink phone and Max had a blue one.

"Hello, this is Lily. Do you have a message for me?" Lily said into her phone.

"Yes, this is Max. I have a message for you. You are my best friend and I like you very much." Max said into his phone.

Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Max. That is a very thoughtful message. I like you very much too. You are my best friend."

They repeated their messages a few times, until they heard their mom calling them for lunch.

"Come on, kids. It's time to eat. Put away your phones and wash your hands." Mom said.

Lily and Max ran to the kitchen, but they forgot to turn off their phones. They left them on the floor.

While they were eating, a naughty cat came into the room. The cat saw the phones and was curious. He sniffed them and pawed them. He accidentally pressed some buttons and made the phones talk.

"Hello, this is Lily. Do you have a message for me?" The cat heard from the pink phone.

"Meow, meow, meow." The cat answered.

"Yes, this is Max. I have a message for you. You are my best friend and I like you very much." The cat heard from the blue phone.

"Meow, meow, meow." The cat answered again.

The cat thought the phones were fun. He repeated the messages over and over, making loud noises.

Lily and Max heard the noises and ran back to the room. They saw the cat playing with their phones. They were angry and scared.

"Hey, stop that! That's our phones! Give them back!" Lily and Max shouted at the cat.

The cat was startled and ran away, leaving the phones behind. Lily and Max picked up their phones and checked them. They were still working, but they had some strange messages.

"Who is meow, meow, meow?" Lily asked.

"I don't know. Maybe it's a bad cat who wants to steal our phones." Max said.

They decided to ignore the messages and only listen to each other. They hugged and said, "You are my best friend and I like you very much."

They were happy and went back to their lunch. They were more careful with their phones after that.
Lily and Sam were on a safari with their mom and dad. They saw many animals, like lions, zebras, and giraffes. Lily liked the giraffes best. They had long necks and pretty spots. She wanted to carry one home.

She asked her mom if she could carry a giraffe. Her mom said no. She said giraffes were too big and heavy. She said they belonged in the safari, not in their house. Lily was sad. She wanted a giraffe friend.

She saw a baby giraffe near a tree. It was smaller than the other giraffes. It looked at Lily with big eyes. Lily thought it was cute. She ran to the baby giraffe. She tried to hug it and lift it up. She wanted to carry it to the car.

But the baby giraffe did not like that. It kicked and wiggled. It made a loud noise. It called for its mom. The mom giraffe heard the noise. She saw Lily holding her baby. She was angry. She ran to Lily. She lowered her head and pushed Lily away. She took her baby back.

Lily fell to the ground. She was scared and hurt. She cried. Her mom and dad heard her cry. They ran to her. They picked her up and carried her to the car. They checked if she was okay. They hugged her and kissed her. They told her she was sorry. They told her she should not try to carry a giraffe. They told her giraffes were wild animals, not pets. They told her she should be careful and respectful on the safari.

Lily nodded. She said she was sorry too. She said she learned her lesson. She said she still liked giraffes, but she would not carry them. She said she would look at them from far away. She said she would be happy with her teddy bear. She hugged her teddy bear. She smiled. She was ready to see more animals on the safari.
Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many red picks. The picks look nice and sweet.

"Let's take some picks, Sara!" Ben says. "They are for us!"

Sara is not sure. She sees a sign that says "Do not take the picks. They belong to Mr. Fox."

"Maybe we should not take them, Ben," Sara says. "The sign says they are not for us. Mr. Fox will be angry."

Ben does not listen. He wants the picks. He climbs the tree and takes many picks. He puts them in his bag.

"Come on, Sara, take some too!" Ben says. "Mr. Fox will not know. He is not here."

Sara is scared. She does not want to make Mr. Fox angry. But she also wants to try the picks. They look so nice and sweet. She climbs the tree and takes one pick. She bites it.

"Yum, this is good!" Sara says. "Thank you, Ben!"

But then, they hear a loud growl. They look down and see Mr. Fox. He is here. He is very angry. He sees the picks in Ben's bag and the pick in Sara's hand.

"Who took my picks?" Mr. Fox says. "You are bad children! You are thieves! Give me back my picks or I will eat you!"

Sara and Ben are very scared. They try to run away, but Mr. Fox is faster. He catches them and bites them. He eats them and his picks.

Mr. Fox is happy. He has his picks and a nice meal. Sara and Ben are not happy. They are gone. They should have listened to the sign. They should not have taken the picks. The end.
Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They have a hoop and a ball. They take turns to roll the hoop and throw the ball. They laugh and have fun.

One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is brown and furry. It has a long tail and a wet nose. The dog runs and jumps. It looks happy.

Anna and Ben want to pet the dog. They wave at the dog and call it. The dog sees them and runs to them. It wags its tail and licks their faces. Anna and Ben giggle and hug the dog.

The dog's owner is a nice lady. She is alert and watches the dog. She sees Anna and Ben and smiles. She walks to them and says hello. She tells them the dog's name is Coco. She says Coco likes to play with kids.

Anna and Ben ask the lady if they can play with Coco. The lady says yes, but they have to be careful. She says Coco is strong and fast. She says they have to hold the hoop and the ball tight. She says they have to listen to her and Coco.

Lily liked to play with her violin. It was a small violin that her dad gave her. She liked to make sounds with it and pretend she was a big star. She had a bow and some strings and a case for her violin.

One day, she took her violin to the park. She wanted to show her friends how she could play. She put her case on the grass and opened it. She grabbed her violin and her bow and smiled. She was ready to play.

But then, an unknown boy came. He was bigger than Lily and he had a mean face. He saw Lily's violin and he wanted it. He ran to Lily and grabbed her violin from her hands. He said, "This is mine now. Go away."

Lily was scared and sad. She wanted her violin back. She said, "No, that is my violin. Give it back. You are not nice." She tried to grab her violin back, but the boy was too strong. He pushed her away and ran with her violin.

Lily cried and cried. She did not know what to do. She wanted her dad and her violin. She hoped the boy would not break her violin. She hoped someone would help her. She hoped she would see her violin again.
Sam and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They made loud noises as they zoomed and crashed their cars on the carpet. They had a lot of fun, but they also made a big mess.

Mom came in and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said, "Sam and Lily, you need to clean up your toys right now. It is almost time for dinner." Sam and Lily did not want to stop playing. They said, "But Mom, we are not done yet. Can we play a little more?"

Mom said, "No, you have to clean up now. And you also have to wash your hands. They are very smelly from playing with the cars. You don't want to eat with smelly hands, do you?" Sam and Lily did not like to wash their hands. They said, "But Mom, we don't like to wash our hands. It is boring and cold."

Mom said, "You have to wash your hands, or you can't have dinner. And dinner is your favorite, spaghetti and meatballs. You don't want to miss that, do you?" Sam and Lily loved spaghetti and meatballs. They said, "OK, Mom, we will wash our hands. But can we play with the cars again after dinner?"

Mom said, "Yes, you can play with the cars again after dinner, but only if you clean up your toys first. And you have to be quiet, because Dad is working in his office. Do you understand?" Sam and Lily nodded. They said, "Yes, Mom, we understand. We will clean up and wash our hands and be quiet."

Mom smiled and said, "Good. I'm glad you are listening. Now hurry up, dinner is almost ready." Sam and Lily paused their game and put their cars in the toy box. Then they ran to the bathroom and washed their hands with soap and water. They dried their hands with a towel and went to the kitchen. They smelled the spaghetti and meatballs and their mouths watered. They said, "Thank you, Mom, for making dinner. It smells yummy."

Mom said, "You're welcome, Sam and Lily. I'm proud of you for doing what I asked. Now sit down and enjoy your dinner. And don't forget to say please and thank you." Sam and Lily said, "Please and thank you, Mom." They sat down and ate their dinner. They were happy and full. They thought, "Maybe washing our hands and cleaning up is not so bad after all."
Lily and Ben were very excited. They were going to decorate the big tree in the garden. Mom had given them some shiny strips of paper and some colorful balls. They ran outside with their things.

"Look, Ben, the tree is so old and big!" Lily said. "It has many branches and leaves. It must be ancient!"

"Ancient means very, very old, right?" Ben asked. "Like the dinosaurs?"

"Yes, like the dinosaurs. But this tree is still alive and green. It is not a fossil," Lily explained. "It is a living thing, like us. We should be nice to it and make it pretty."

They started to wrap the paper strips around the branches. They hung the balls on the twigs. They sang some songs and laughed. The tree looked very festive and bright.

"Wow, we did a great job!" Ben said. "The tree is so happy now. Can you hear it?"

Lily listened. She heard a soft rustle in the leaves. She smiled.

"Yes, I can hear it. It is saying thank you to us. It likes our decorations. It is our friend," she said.

They hugged the tree and each other. They felt warm and cozy. They loved the tree and the tree loved them. They were very happy.
Anna and Ben were playing outside 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 having fun, but they started to feel cold.

"Let's go inside and get warm," Anna said. "I'm shivering."

"Me too," Ben said. "But what about our snowman? He might get lonely."

Anna had an idea. She ran to the house and came back with a sweater. She put it on the snowman and said, "There, now he has a sweater too. He won't be cold."

Ben smiled. He thought Anna was very smart. He hugged her and said, "You're the best sister ever."

They went inside and had hot chocolate with marshmallows. They looked out the window and saw their snowman. He looked happy in his sweater.

But then, a big dog came by. He saw the snowman and thought he was a toy. He jumped on him and bit his nose and his scarf. He tore his sweater and knocked off his hat. He made a big mess.

Anna and Ben saw the dog and screamed. They ran to the door and shouted, "Go away, you crazy dog! Leave our snowman alone!"

The dog heard them and ran away. He was scared of their loud voices. He took the carrot nose with him.

Anna and Ben went outside and saw their snowman. He was broken and sad. They felt sorry for him. They tried to fix him, but they couldn't. They decided to make a new one.

They worked hard and made a new snowman. He was bigger and better than the old one. They gave him a new hat and a new scarf. They gave him a new nose and new eyes. They also gave him a new sweater. They made sure it was very tight and strong. They hoped the dog wouldn't come back.

They were proud of their new snowman. He looked happy in his new sweater. They hugged him and said, "We love you, snowman. You're our friend."

They went inside and had more hot chocolate. They looked out the window and saw their new snowman. He smiled at them. They smiled back. They were happy.
Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and a big lamp that made the room bright. Sometimes, when it was time to sleep, they did not want to stop playing. They would whisper to each other under the covers and giggle.

One night, they heard a strange noise outside their window. It sounded like a bell and a ho ho ho. They peeked out and saw a jolly man in a red suit and a big bag. He was climbing down from a sleigh with reindeer. He looked at their window and winked.

"Who is that?" Lily whispered to Ben.

"I think it is Santa Claus!" Ben whispered back. "He brings presents to good children on Christmas Eve."

"Wow! Do you think he has something for us?" Lily whispered.

"Maybe. But we have to be quiet and pretend to sleep. He only comes when children are asleep." Ben whispered.

They quickly crawled back to their beds and closed their eyes. They heard the jolly man enter their room and put something under the tree. They smelled cookies and milk. They felt a soft touch on their heads.

"Merry Christmas, Ben and Lily. You are very good children." The jolly man whispered.

"Thank you, Santa." They whispered together.

They opened their eyes and saw him smile. He waved and left. They heard the bell and the ho ho ho again. They looked at each other and smiled. They could not wait to see what he brought them. They hugged and fell asleep. They had a very happy dream.
Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They had a lot of fun.

But then, Ben saw a big tire on the ground. He wanted to roll it. He said to Lily, "Come, let's roll the tire. It will be fun."

Lily was not sure. She said, "But the tire is big and heavy. And it is dirty. And it is not a toy."

Ben did not care. He said, "It is a toy. It is a big wheel. We can roll it and make it go fast. Come on, don't be scared."

He pushed the tire and it started to roll. He ran after it. He laughed. He said, "Look, look, how fast it goes. It is fun."

Lily followed him. She tried to push the tire too. But it was too big and heavy for her. She could not make it roll. She got tired. She said, "Ben, I don't like this. This is not fun. This is hard. And the tire is dirty. It makes my hands and clothes dirty. Let's quit. Let's go back to the swings and slides."

Ben did not listen. He said, "No, no, this is fun. This is better than swings and slides. Swings and slides are boring. They are ordinary. This is new. This is exciting. Come on, don't quit. Let's roll the tire more."

He pushed the tire harder. It rolled faster. He ran faster. He did not see where he was going. He did not see the big rock on the path. He did not see the tire hit the rock. He did not see the tire bounce back. He did not see the tire hit him. He fell down. He hurt. He cried.

Lily saw what happened. She ran to him. She said, "Ben, are you okay? Are you hurt? I told you to quit. I told you the tire was not a toy. I told you it was dangerous."

Ben was not okay. He was hurt. He had a big bump on his head. He had a cut on his knee. He had dirt on his face. He said, "Lily, I'm sorry. You were right. The tire was not a toy. It was not fun. It was hard. It was dirty. It was dangerous. Let's quit. Let's go back to the swings and slides."

Lily helped him get up. She said, "Okay, Ben. Let's quit. Let's go back to the swings and slides. They are not boring. They are not ordinary. They are fun. They are safe. They are toys."
Ben likes to play in the snow. He puts on his warm coat, hat, gloves and boots. He takes his red sled and goes outside. He sees a big hill with white powder on it. He wants to slide down the hill very fast.

He runs to the top of the hill with his sled. He puts his sled on the powder and sits on it. He holds the rope and gets ready to go. He looks at his dog, Spot. Spot is his best friend. Spot is dependable. Spot always follows Ben and helps him.

Ben says "Ready, Spot?" Spot barks and wags his tail. Ben says "Go!" and pushes his sled. He and Spot rush down the hill. They feel the wind and the powder on their faces. They go faster and faster. They are having fun.

But then, Ben sees a big rock in the powder. He did not see it before. He tries to steer his sled away from the rock. But it is too late. He and Spot hit the rock and fly off the sled. They land in the powder with a thud.

Ben and Spot are not hurt. They are just surprised. They look at each other and laugh. They shake off the powder and get up. They hug each other. They are happy. They go to get their sled and try again. They like to play in the snow.
Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big box. They use the box to make a fort. They put some toys and snacks in the fort. They have fun.

One day, they find some celery in the fort. They do not know who put it there. They do not like celery. They think it is yucky. They want to throw it away. But they forget.

The next day, they go to the park again. They run to the fort. But they see a big rabbit. The rabbit is in the fort. The rabbit is eating the celery. The rabbit is happy.

Tom and Sue are mad. They want the rabbit to go away. They want their fort back. They yell at the rabbit. But the rabbit does not care. The rabbit likes the celery. The rabbit does not want to leave.

Tom and Sue try to scare the rabbit. They make loud noises. They wave their arms. They throw some stones. But the rabbit is not scared. The rabbit is smart. The rabbit has a hidden hole. The rabbit goes into the hole. The rabbit is safe.

Tom and Sue are sad. They lose their fort. They lose their snacks. They lose their fun. They wish they did not forget the celery. They learn a lesson. They say sorry to the rabbit. They hope the rabbit will share the fort. They hope the rabbit will be their friend.
Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big muffin on a bench. It is brown and smells good.

"Look, a muffin!" Lily says. "Can we eat it?"

"I don't know," Tom says. "Maybe it belongs to someone."

They go closer to the muffin. They see a note on it. It says: "For the strong bird who saved my hat. Thank you!"

Lily and Tom look up. They see a bird on a tree. It is red and blue and has a hat on its head. It is the same hat as the note.

"Wow, that bird is strong!" Tom says. "It must have helped someone."

"Yes, it is very nice," Lily says. "But I am hungry."

They look at the muffin again. They want to eat it. But they also want to be nice to the bird.

"What should we do?" Lily asks.

Tom thinks for a moment. He has an idea.

"Let's share!" he says. "We can give some to the bird and some to us."

Lily likes the idea. She nods.

They break the muffin in half. They give one half to the bird. The bird is happy. It sings a song.

They eat the other half. It is yummy. They are happy. They smile.

They have made a new friend. They have learned to share. They have had a good day.
Tom was a boy who liked to draw. He had many pencils of different colors. He kept them in a big box on his desk. He was very proud of his pencils.

One day, he came home from school and wanted to draw a picture. He ran to his desk and opened his box. But he was very sad. Some of his pencils were broken. Some of them were missing. Someone had been careless with his pencils.

He looked around and saw his little sister, Amy. She was sitting on the floor with some paper and a pencil. She was drawing a cat. Tom was very angry. He knew she had taken his pencils. He went to her and said, "Give me back my pencils! You are careless! You broke them and lost them!"

Amy looked up and said, "No, they are mine! I found them under the bed. You are careless! You left them there!"

Tom and Amy started to fight. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see their mom coming into the room. She saw them and said, "Stop! What are you doing? Why are you fighting?"

Tom and Amy told her what happened. They both said the pencils were theirs. They both said the other one was careless. Mom looked at the pencils and said, "These are not your pencils, Tom. These are not your pencils, Amy. These are my pencils. I use them for work. I put them under the bed to hide them from you. You are both careless. You did not ask me. You did not respect my things. You did not discover them. You took them."

Tom and Amy felt ashamed. They said sorry to mom. They said sorry to each other. They gave back the pencils to mom. Mom said, "It's okay. I forgive you. But next time, be careful and ask before you take something. And if you want to draw, I have some crayons for you. You can share them and draw together."

Tom and Amy nodded. They took the crayons and some paper. They went to the floor and drew a picture. They drew a family. They drew mom, Tom, Amy, and a cat. They were happy. They were careful. They discovered how to get along.
Lily and Tom are twins. They like to help Mom in the kitchen. Mom is making soup for lunch. She tells Lily and Tom to stir the soup in the big pot. Lily and Tom take turns to stir the soup with a big spoon.

But Tom wants to stir the soup more than Lily. He says, "It is my turn now. Give me the spoon." Lily says, "No, it is still my turn. You had the spoon before." They start to pull the spoon from each other. They are not careful. They spill some soup on the stove. The soup is hot. It makes a loud hiss.

Mom hears the hiss. She runs to the stove. She sees the mess. She is angry. She says, "Lily and Tom, what are you doing? You are not helping. You are making trouble. The soup is hot. You could get hurt. Go to your room now. No soup for you."

Lily and Tom are sad. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We just wanted to stir the soup. It looked interesting." Mom says, "I know, but you have to be careful and share. Maybe next time you can help me again. But now you have to go to your room and think about what you did."

Lily and Tom go to their room. They are hungry. They wish they could have some soup. They say, "We are sorry. We will be good next time. We will stir the soup nicely and share the spoon." They hug each other and wait for Mom to forgive them.
Tom and Mia like to play in the park. They have a big box of toys. They have balls, cars, dolls, and spears. The spears are not real. They are made of wood and plastic. They are fun to throw and catch.

One day, Tom and Mia see a big black dog in the park. The dog is not friendly. It barks and growls at them. It runs towards them. Tom and Mia are scared. They do not want the dog to bite them.

"Quick, Mia, sit behind me!" Tom says. He picks up a spear and holds it in front of him. He hopes the spear will stop the dog.

Mia sits behind Tom and hugs him. She is very brave. She says, "Go away, dog! We do not like you!"

The dog sees the spear and stops. It does not like the spear. It thinks the spear is sharp and dangerous. It turns around and runs away.

Tom and Mia are happy. They hug each other. They say, "We did it! We scared the dog away!"

They put the spear back in the box. They play with their other toys. They have fun in the park. They are not scared of the dog anymore.
Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look at the sky. Sometimes they saw big birds and clouds. Sometimes they saw planes and stars.

One day, they saw a very big plane. It was white and shiny. It made a loud noise. It flew very high and fast.

"Wow, look at that!" Ben said. "Where do you think it is going?"

"I don't know," Lila said. "Maybe to a distant place. A place far away from here."

"Do you want to go to a distant place?" Ben asked.

Lila nodded. "Yes, I do. I want to see new things and meet new people. I want to have an adventure."

"Me too," Ben said. "Maybe one day we can go together. We can pass the clouds and the stars. We can find our dream place."

They smiled at each other and held hands. They watched the plane until it was gone. Then they closed their eyes and imagined their dream place. They felt happy and excited. They knew that one day, their dream would come true.
Tom and Sue like to play with paper. They can fold it into many shapes. They can make hats, boats, planes and more. They have a lot of fun with paper.

One day, they find a big box of paper in the garage. It is cheap paper. It is thin and gray and has many words on it. Tom and Sue do not know what the words mean. They do not care. They just want to fold the paper.

They take the paper to their room. They start to fold it into different things. They make a big castle with paper walls and towers. They make a dragon with paper wings and teeth. They make a princess with a paper dress and crown. They make a knight with a paper sword and shield.

They play with their paper toys for a long time. They pretend to have adventures and battles. They have a lot of fun with paper.

But then, it gets dark outside. The sun goes down and the sky turns black. The room gets dark too. Tom and Sue do not like the dark. They are afraid of the dark. They cannot see their paper toys well. They think they see shadows and monsters in the dark.

They run to the door. They want to turn on the light. But the door is stuck. They cannot open it. They push and pull, but it does not move. They are trapped in the dark with their paper toys.

They start to cry. They are scared and sad. They do not have fun with paper anymore. They want to get out of the dark. They want to see their mom and dad. They want to hug them and feel safe.

They do not know what to do. They sit on the floor and hold each other. They hope someone will come and help them. They hope the dark will go away soon. They hope they can play with paper again, but only when it is bright.
Sara and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a pretty insect on a flower. It has yellow and black stripes and big wings.

"Look, a bee!" Sara says. "It makes honey."

"I want to see it closer," Ben says. He walks to the flower and tries to touch the bee.

"Ben, no!" Sara says. "The bee can sting you. It will hurt."

But Ben does not listen. He reaches out his hand and the bee flies away. Ben follows the bee and runs across the garden.

"Ben, hurry!" Sara says. "Come back here. The bee is gone."

But Ben does not hear her. He runs faster and faster. He does not see the big rock in front of him. He trips and falls down. He scrapes his knee and starts to cry.

"Ben, are you okay?" Sara says. She runs to him and helps him up. She sees blood on his knee and feels sorry for him.

"I'm sorry, Sara," Ben says. "I was silly. I wanted to see the bee."

"It's okay, Ben," Sara says. "The bee is pretty, but it can be dangerous. Next time, be careful and listen to me."

She hugs him and takes him inside. She asks mom to put a band-aid on his knee. She gives him a cookie and a glass of milk. She tells him a story about a friendly insect that does not sting. Ben smiles and feels better. He thanks Sara for being a good sister. They hug and play together.
Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box under a tree. They open the box and see many shiny things. They are happy. They think they found treasure.

They take out some of the things and look at them. There are rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. They are all different colors and shapes. They are unique. Anna and Ben try them on and pretend to be kings and queens. They wave to each other and laugh.

But then, they hear a loud voice. It is the owner of the box. He is angry. He says the box is his and the things are his. He says he sells them at the market. He says Anna and Ben are bad and they have to give them back. He takes the box and the things and goes away.

Anna and Ben are sad. They liked the treasure. They liked to play with it. They say sorry to each other and hug. They decide to make their own treasure. They look for pretty stones, flowers, leaves, and feathers. They make rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. They are all different colors and shapes. They are unique.

"Mom, is the soup ready?" Lily asks.

"Not yet, my dear. It needs to cook for a while. Why don't you and Tom play with your toys in the living room?" Mom says.

Lily and Tom go to the living room. They find their toy box. They take out their dolls and cars. They make a pretend soup with their toy dishes and spoons. They pretend to cut the dolls' hair and the cars' wheels. They laugh and have fun.

"Soup is ready!" Mom calls.

Lily and Tom run to the kitchen. They wash their hands. They sit at the table. Mom serves them hot soup in their bowls. They blow on the soup to cool it down. They taste the soup.

"Mmm, this soup is yummy!" Lily says.

"Thank you, Mom. You are the best!" Tom says.

"You're welcome, my loves. I'm glad you like it. And I'm proud of you for playing nicely together." Mom says.

They eat their soup and talk about their toys. They are happy and full.
Tom is a boy who likes to help his mum. Every morning, he wakes up early and rises from his bed. He puts on his clothes and goes to the kitchen. He sees his mum making breakfast and smiles.

"Can I help you, mum?" he asks.

"Of course, Tom. You can help me by taking the bin outside. It is full of rubbish and we need to make room for more," his mum says.

Tom nods and grabs the bin. It is heavy and big, but he is strong and enthusiastic. He carries the bin to the door and opens it. He sees the sun shining and the birds singing. He feels happy and proud.

He walks to the end of the garden and puts the bin next to the gate. He sees a big truck coming down the road. It is the rubbish truck. It stops near the gate and a man jumps out. He takes the bin and empties it into the truck. He waves at Tom and says thank you.

Tom waves back and runs to the door. He tells his mum what he saw and did. His mum hugs him and says he is a good boy. She gives him a plate of toast and jam. Tom eats it and enjoys it. He thinks he likes to help his mum. He thinks he likes to rise early and see the sun. He thinks he likes to be enthusiastic and strong. He thinks he likes to be Tom.
Ben and Lily liked to play near the harbor. They liked to see the big boats and the small fish. They liked to hear the water and the birds. Sometimes they saw other children playing too.

One day, they saw a new boy. He had a red hat and a blue ball. He was kicking the ball by himself. He looked sad. Ben and Lily wanted to make him happy.

"Hi, what is your name?" Ben asked.

"Tom," the boy said.

"Do you want to play with us?" Lily asked.

Tom nodded. He smiled a little.

"Come on, join us!" Ben said. He took Tom's hand and ran to the sand. Lily followed them with her bucket and shovel.

They played together for a long time. They made a sand castle and a moat. They threw the ball and caught it. They laughed and talked. They had fun.

The sun was setting. The sky was brilliant. It had many colors. Red, orange, yellow, pink, purple. The water sparkled. The boats looked pretty.

"Wow, look at that!" Tom said.

"It is beautiful," Lily said.

"It is like a painting," Ben said.

They hugged each other. They were happy. They had made a new friend. They liked the harbor.
Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play and laugh. They have a grandma who lives far away. She is elderly and kind. She likes to send them mail.

One day, Lily and Ben get a big envelope from grandma. They open it and find a card. The card has a picture of a funny monkey. Inside the card, there is a joke. The joke says: "What do you call a monkey who likes to read? A book-worm!" Lily and Ben think the joke is very funny. They giggle and show it to mom.

Mom smiles and says: "That's a nice joke from grandma. Do you want to send her a joke back?" Lily and Ben nod. They think hard. They want to make grandma laugh too. They remember a joke they learned at school. The joke says: "Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other slide!" Lily and Ben write the joke on a new card. They draw a chicken and a slide. They put the card in an envelope. They write grandma's name and address. They put a stamp on it.

Tom comes to Sara's room and sees the bear. He says, "Can I play with Bobo too?" Sara says, "Yes, you can. But be gentle. Bobo is very soft and nice."

Sara and Tom take turns to hold Bobo and talk to him. They make him laugh and sing. They pretend he is a doctor and a teacher. They have a lot of fun with Bobo.

But then, Tom pulls Bobo too hard and his arm comes off. Sara and Tom are shocked and sad. They say, "Oh no, Bobo! We are sorry. We did not mean to hurt you."

Sara and Tom run to Sara's mom and show her Bobo's arm. They say, "Mom, can you fix Bobo? He is our friend and we love him." Sara's mom says, "Don't worry, I can fix Bobo. He will be fine. You are good friends to care for him."

Sara's mom takes a needle and a thread and sews Bobo's arm back. She says, "There, Bobo is good as new. He is very lucky to have you as his friends. You can play with him again, but be careful not to pull him too hard."

Sara and Tom hug Bobo and say, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. We will be gentle with Bobo. He is our soft and nice friend." They go back to Sara's room and play with Bobo happily.
Anna likes to dress up in her mom's clothes. She thinks they are modern and pretty. She puts on a big hat, a long coat and some shiny shoes. She looks at herself in the mirror and smiles.

"Anna, what are you doing?" her mom asks, coming into the room. She sees Anna wearing her clothes and laughs.

"I am dressing up, mom. Do you like my outfit?" Anna says, twirling around.

"You look very modern, Anna. But those shoes are too big for you. You might trip and hurt your foot," her mom says, picking up Anna and taking off the shoes.

"But I like the shoes, mom. They make me tall and fancy," Anna says, pouting.

"I know, Anna. But you have your own shoes that fit you well and are also fancy. Look, these ones have flowers and sparkles on them. Why don't you try them on?" her mom says, showing Anna a pair of pink shoes.

Anna looks at the shoes and smiles again. She likes flowers and sparkles. She puts on the shoes and runs to the mirror.

"Wow, mom. These shoes are beautiful. Thank you, mom. I love you, mom," Anna says, hugging her mom.

"I love you too, Anna. You are my beautiful and modern girl," her mom says, hugging her back.
Lily and Ben were playing with their dolls in the living room. They liked to make up stories and act them out with their dolls. Lily had a pink doll with a delicate dress and long hair. Ben had a blue doll with a hat and a car.

One day, they decided to pretend that their dolls were going on a trip. They packed a small bag with some clothes and snacks for their dolls. They said goodbye to their mom and dad and walked to the door.

But when they opened the door, they saw something strange. There was a big, furry animal sitting on the porch. It had black and white stripes and a long tail. It looked at them with small eyes and made a hissing sound.

Lily and Ben paused. They did not know what the animal was. They felt scared and curious at the same time. They wanted to touch it, but they also wanted to run away.

"What is that?" Lily whispered to Ben.

"I don't know," Ben whispered back. "Maybe it's a cat?"

"It doesn't look like a cat," Lily said. "It's too big and too stripey."

"Maybe it's a skunk?" Ben said. "I heard they smell bad."

"Maybe we should go back inside," Lily said. "Mom and dad will know what to do."

They nodded and slowly closed the door. They ran to their mom and dad and told them what they saw. Their mom and dad smiled and explained that the animal was a raccoon. They said that raccoons were wild animals that sometimes came to look for food. They said that raccoons were not dangerous, but they should not touch them or feed them.

Lily and Ben learned something new that day. They decided to wait until the raccoon left before they continued their trip. They hoped to see more animals on their way, but only from a safe distance.
Lily was very hungry. She wanted to eat her pasta with cheese. She saw a fork on the table. She reached for the fork, but it was too far. She asked her mom, "Please, can I have the fork?"

Her mom smiled and gave her the fork. "Here you go, Lily. Be careful, the pasta is hot." She said.

Lily used the fork to eat her pasta. She liked the cheese. It was yummy. She ate and ate until her plate was empty. She felt full and happy.

She looked at her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. The pasta was good."

Her mom hugged her and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you liked it. Are you tired?"

Lily nodded. She felt sleepy. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. She said, "Yes, mom. I'm tired. Can I go to bed?"

Her mom said, "Of course, Lily. Let's go to your room. I'll read you a story."

Lily smiled and took her mom's hand. She walked with her mom to her room. She put on her pajamas and climbed into her bed. Her mom read her a story about a princess and a dragon. Lily listened and closed her eyes. She fell asleep and had sweet dreams.
Lila and Ben were friends who liked to play with toys. They had many toys, but they liked some more than others. Lila had a doll that she loved very much. She called her doll Anna and dressed her in pretty clothes. Ben had a car that he loved very much. He called his car Zoom and drove it fast on the floor.

One day, Lila and Ben decided to trade their toys for a while. Lila gave Anna to Ben and Ben gave Zoom to Lila. They thought it would be fun to try something new. But soon they realized that they missed their own toys. Lila missed Anna's soft hair and sweet smile. Ben missed Zoom's shiny wheels and loud sound.

They also noticed that their toys were not as attractive to them as before. Lila saw that Anna's clothes were dirty and torn from Ben's rough play. Ben saw that Zoom's wheels were bent and scratched from Lila's careless drops. They felt sad and angry. They wished they had taken better care of their toys.

They ran to each other and asked for their toys back. They apologized for not being careful and respectful. They hugged and said sorry. They learned that their toys had value and that they should not trade them for something else. They also learned that they should be grateful for what they have and not want what others have. They were happy to have their toys and their friendship again.
Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Anna had a red bucket and Ben had a blue one. They filled their buckets with dirt and worms and beetles.

"Look, Anna, I found a big worm!" Ben said, holding up a long, slimy thing.

"Wow, Ben, that's a good find!" Anna said, smiling. She liked worms too.

Anna kept digging in her spot. She hoped to find something big and cool too. She did not want Ben to have all the fun. She dug and dug until she felt something hard and round. She pulled it out of the dirt and looked at it.

"Look, Ben, I found a frog!" Anna said, holding up a green and brown thing.

"Wow, Anna, that's a great find!" Ben said, but he did not smile. He looked at his bucket and saw only worms and beetles. He felt jealous. He wanted a frog too.

"Can I see your frog, Anna?" Ben asked, reaching for the frog.

"No, Ben, it's my frog!" Anna said, pulling the frog away. She did not want to share her frog. She liked her frog too much.

"Please, Anna, just for a minute!" Ben said, trying to grab the frog.

"No, Ben, go away!" Anna said, pushing Ben away. She did not want to play with Ben anymore. She only wanted to play with her frog.

Ben felt sad and angry. He did not like Anna anymore. He only wanted a frog too. He ran away from Anna and looked for another spot to dig. He hoped to find his own frog. He did not know that Anna felt sorry and lonely. She did not like to fight with Ben. She only wanted to show him her frog. She did not know that frogs do not like to be held too long. She did not know that her frog was trying to jump out of her hand. She did not know that soon she would lose her frog and wish she had Ben back.
Ben and Lily were very happy. They were going on a holiday with Mum and Dad. They packed their bags with toys and clothes. They got in the car and drove to the big boat. The big boat would take them to a new place.

On the big boat, Ben and Lily saw many things. They saw water and fish and birds. They saw other people and cars and bikes. They saw a big room with many beds. That was where they would sleep. They also saw a big table with many foods. That was where they would eat.

One day, Ben and Lily were very hungry. They went to the big table with Mum and Dad. They saw many foods they liked. They saw bread and cheese and fruit and cake. They wanted to try everything. They took a big plate and filled it with food. They filled it so much that it was heavy and full.

But Ben and Lily were too greedy. They could not eat all the food they took. They left some on their plate. They wasted the food. Mum and Dad were not happy. They told Ben and Lily that they should not take more than they can eat. They told them that some people have no food and they should be grateful. They told them that they should say sorry and clean their plate.

Ben and Lily felt ashamed. They knew they did something bad. They said sorry to Mum and Dad. They said sorry to the people who made the food. They tried to eat some more of the food. They also put some in a box to give to the birds. They learned their lesson. They decided to be more careful and respectful. They still enjoyed their holiday, but they never filled their plate too much again.
Anna loved to play in the garden. She liked to look for bugs and flowers and birds. One day, she saw something shiny under a leaf. She picked it up and saw it was a small ring. It had a tiny fairy on it. The fairy had wings and a dress and a wand.

Anna put the ring on her finger and felt happy. She wanted to show it to her mom and dad. But when she ran to the house, she heard a loud noise. It was a big dog. The dog saw Anna and barked. It wanted to chase her and bite her. Anna was scared. She ran back to the garden.

The dog followed her. It was fierce and mean. Anna did not know what to do. She wished she had a friend to help her. Then she heard a voice. It was the fairy. The fairy said, "Don't be afraid, Anna. I am your friend. I belong to you. And you belong to me. I will use my magic to make the dog go away."

The fairy waved her wand and said some words. A bright light flashed. The dog stopped barking. It looked confused. It turned around and ran away. Anna was safe. She hugged the fairy and thanked her. The fairy smiled and said, "You're welcome, Anna. You are brave and kind. I am glad I found you. We can play together in the garden. And we can be friends forever."
Lily was sad. She lost her sock. It was her favorite sock. It was pink and had a bunny on it. She looked everywhere for her sock. She looked under her bed, in her toy box, in the closet, but she could not find it.

She asked her mom, "Mom, where is my sock? The pink one with the bunny?"

Her mom said, "I don't know, honey. Maybe it fell out of the laundry basket. Did you check the laundry room?"

Lily ran to the laundry room. She saw a lot of clothes in the dryer and on the floor. She searched and searched, but she could not find her sock.

She was about to cry, when she saw something on the window. It was her sock! It was hanging on the window sill, drying in the sun. It must have flown out of the dryer when her mom opened it.

Lily was happy. She grabbed her sock and hugged it. She said, "I found you, sock! I missed you so much!"

Her mom came and smiled. She said, "I'm glad you found your sock, Lily. It looks like it had a little adventure. Do you want to put it on?"

Lily nodded. She put on her sock and showed it to her mom. She said, "Look, mom, my sock has a bunny. It is my favorite sock. Thank you for helping me find it."

Her mom said, "You're welcome, sweetie. I love you and your sock. Now, let's go and find the other one."
Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big bird with red and yellow feathers. It was sitting on a branch and singing. Tim and Lily liked the bird. They wanted to touch it and play with it.

"Let's catch the bird!" Tim said. He ran to the tree and tried to climb it. Lily followed him. She was scared of falling, but she wanted to see the bird too.

The bird saw Tim and Lily. It was scared of them. It flew away to another tree. Tim and Lily ran after it. They did not listen to their mom, who was calling them to come back.

They reached the other tree. The bird was still there. Tim had a plan. He found a big stick and threw it at the bird. The stick hit the bird's wing. The bird cried out in pain. It fell to the ground.

Tim and Lily ran to the bird. They picked it up. They saw that the bird's wing was torn. It was bleeding. The bird looked at them with sad eyes. It could not fly anymore.

Tim and Lily felt bad. They realized that they had hurt the bird. They had been mean and selfish. They wished they had left the bird alone.

They heard their mom coming. She saw the bird in their hands. She was angry and sad. She scolded them for being cruel and careless. She told them to put the bird down and go home.

Tim and Lily said sorry to the bird. They put it down gently. They hoped that the bird would get better. They learned their lesson. They decided to be kind and fair to all animals. They never chased or hurt a bird again.
Lily and Ben liked to build with blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They could build houses, towers, cars, and animals. They had fun playing with their blocks.

One day, Lily found a large gem in her toy box. It was shiny and sparkly. It had many colors like a rainbow. Lily loved the gem. She wanted to put it on top of her tower. She thought it would make her tower look pretty.

Ben saw the gem too. He wanted the gem for his car. He thought it would make his car go fast. He asked Lily to share the gem. Lily said no. She said it was her gem. She said she found it first. Ben was angry. He said it was not fair. He said he wanted the gem too.

They started to fight over the gem. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see that their blocks were falling down. Their houses, towers, cars, and animals were breaking. They made a big mess.

Then they heard a loud noise. It was their mom. She came into the room. She saw the blocks and the gem. She saw Lily and Ben. She was not happy. She said they had to stop fighting. She said they had to share the gem. She said they had to clean up the mess.

Lily and Ben felt sorry. They said they were sorry. They gave each other a hug. They decided to share the gem. They decided to build something together. They used the gem to make a crown. They took turns wearing the crown. They said they were the king and the queen of the blocks. They had fun playing with their blocks again.
Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a fat cat. The cat is black and white. It has a red collar.

"Look, a fat cat!" Lily says.

"Can we pet it?" Ben asks.

They go near the cat. The cat is friendly. It rubs its head on their legs. It purrs.

"Hello, fat cat. What is your name?" Lily says.

The cat does not answer. It looks at their backpacks. It smells something good.

"Maybe it wants a snack," Ben says.

They open their backpacks. They have some crackers and cheese. They break some pieces and give them to the cat. The cat eats them. It licks its lips.

"Yum, yum, yum. Thank you, kids," the cat says.

Lily and Ben are surprised. The cat can talk!

"Wow, you can talk!" Lily says.

"Yes, I can. My name is Max. I am a magic cat. I can grant you one wish each," the cat says.

"Really? That is amazing!" Ben says.

"What do you wish for?" the cat asks.

Lily and Ben think hard. They have many wishes. But they also like the cat. They do not want to lose him.

"Can we wish for you to stay with us?" Lily asks.

"Of course. That is a very nice wish. I would love to stay with you. You are very kind and generous," the cat says.

"Yay! We have a new friend!" Ben says.

They hug the cat. The cat hugs them back. They are very happy. They have met a fat, magic cat.
Lily likes to polish her shoes. She has red shoes, blue shoes, and yellow shoes. She uses a cloth and some soap to make them shiny. She polishes them every day before she goes out.

One day, she sees a lady with wide feet. The lady has no shoes. She has only socks. Her socks are dirty and have holes. Lily feels sad for the lady. She wants to help her.

She runs to her house and gets her yellow shoes. They are her biggest shoes. She takes them to the lady and says, "Here, you can have these. They are shiny and nice. They will fit your wide feet."

The lady smiles and says, "Thank you, little girl. You are very kind. These shoes are beautiful. They make me happy."

Lily feels happy too. She hugs the lady and says, "You're welcome. I'm glad you like them. I have more shoes at home. I can polish them for you."

The lady and Lily become friends. They walk together and talk. Lily polishes the lady's shoes every week. The lady tells Lily stories and teaches her new words. They are both happy.
Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the snow. They wanted to see Santa and his reindeer on Christmas Eve. They heard that Santa only came to good children who slept early.

"Let's prepare some cookies and milk for Santa," Ben said. "Maybe he will let us pet his reindeer."

"OK," Sam said. "But we have to be quiet. Mom and Dad will be angry if we stay up late."

They went to the kitchen and found some cookies and milk. They put them on a plate and a glass. They carried them to the living room and put them near the fireplace.

"Santa will be happy when he sees this," Ben said. "Come on, let's go to bed and wait for him."

They ran to their bedroom and put on their pajamas. They climbed into their beds and tried to sleep. But they were too excited. They kept looking at the window, hoping to see Santa's sleigh and reindeer.

They did not hear the sound of the door opening. They did not hear the footsteps of a man in a red suit and a white beard. They did not hear the hoofs of the reindeer on the roof. They did not hear the jingle of the bells.

They did not hear anything, because they were deaf. They were born that way. They could not hear the words of their parents, their friends, or their teachers. They could only use their eyes and their hands to communicate.

They did not know that Santa was in their house. They did not know that he saw their cookies and milk. They did not know that he smiled and ate them. They did not know that he left them some presents under the tree.

They did not know that one of the reindeer was curious and followed Santa inside. They did not know that the reindeer saw their beds and thought they were soft and warm. They did not know that the reindeer jumped on their beds and crushed them with his weight.

They did not know that they were dead. They did not know that Santa was shocked and sad. They did not know that he called for help and tried to save them. They did not know that he cried and said sorry.

They did not know anything, because they were deaf. And they were dead.
Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with shapes. They have a big box of shapes. They have circles, squares, triangles and stars. They can make pictures with the shapes.

One day, Tim and Sam are playing with the shapes in Tim's room. They hear Tim's mom call from downstairs. "Tim, Sam, it's time for lunch!" Tim's mom says. Tim and Sam are hungry. They want to go eat.

But Tim has an idea. He says to Sam, "Let's hide some shapes under the bed. Then we can play with them later." Sam thinks this is a good idea. He says, "OK, let's do it." They take some shapes and put them under the bed. They leave the rest of the shapes in the box.

They go downstairs to eat lunch. Tim's mom gives them sandwiches and juice. They eat and talk. They are happy.

But Tim's mom is not happy. She goes to Tim's room to clean up. She sees the box of shapes. She sees that some shapes are missing. She looks under the bed. She sees the shapes that Tim and Sam hid. She is angry. She knows that Tim and Sam are guilty.

She calls Tim and Sam upstairs. She shows them the shapes under the bed. She says, "Why did you hide these shapes? You know you have to put them back in the box when you are done playing. You are guilty of making a mess. You have to say sorry and clean up."

Tim and Sam are sad. They know they are guilty. They say sorry to Tim's mom. They take the shapes from under the bed and put them back in the box. They say sorry to each other. They promise to not hide shapes again. They hug and make up.
Tom loved his motorcycle. It was red and shiny and made a loud noise. He liked to ride it around the park with his dad. Sometimes he saw other motorcycles and waved at them.

One day, Tom saw a big motorcycle with two parts. It had a front part and a back part. The front part had a wheel and a handle. The back part had another wheel and a seat. Tom was curious. He asked his dad, "What is that?"

His dad said, "That is a separate motorcycle. It can come apart and go together. Some people like to ride it like that."

Tom thought that was incredible. He wanted to try it. He asked his dad, "Can we ride it?"

His dad said, "No, we can't. It belongs to someone else. We have to ask first. And it might be too hard for you. You are still small."

Tom was sad. He liked his motorcycle, but he wanted to see the separate motorcycle. He wondered how it worked. He hoped he could ride it someday. He said, "Maybe when I am big, I can ride it."

His dad smiled. He said, "Maybe. But for now, you can enjoy your own motorcycle. It is very nice and fast. And you are very good at riding it. I am proud of you."

Tom felt happy again. He hugged his dad and said, "Thank you. I love you. And I love my motorcycle."

They rode away, leaving the separate motorcycle behind. Tom still looked at it, but he was not sad anymore. He was excited. He thought, "Someday, I will ride it. And it will be incredible."
Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the garden. One day, they see a big red strawberry on a plant. They want to eat it.

They run to the plant and try to pick the strawberry. But it is too high for them. They cannot reach it. They are sad.

They see a big rock near the plant. They have an idea. They push the rock to the plant. They climb on the rock. Now they can reach the strawberry.

They are happy. They pull the strawberry from the plant. It is juicy and sweet. They share it and eat it.

They hear a voice. It is Mom. She is serious. She says, "Who took my strawberry? I was saving it for a pie!"

Tom and Mia look at each other. They are scared. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We did not know. We wanted to eat it. It was yummy."

Mom is not angry. She smiles. She says, "It's okay. I have more strawberries in the kitchen. You can help me make the pie. But next time, ask me first."

Tom and Mia nod. They say, "Okay, Mom. We will ask you first. We will help you make the pie."

They go to the kitchen with Mom. They wash their hands. They help Mom make the pie. They have fun. They learn a lesson. They are good friends.
Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their colorful toys in the garden. They had a big box of blocks, a red ball, a yellow car and a blue doll. They shared their toys and had fun.

One day, Lily and Ben had a fight. Lily wanted to play with the yellow car, but Ben said it was his. Ben wanted to play with the blue doll, but Lily said it was hers. They both got angry and shouted at each other.

"I don't want to be your friend anymore!" Lily said.

"Me neither!" Ben said.

They took their toys and went to different corners of the garden. They did not talk to each other. They felt sad and lonely.

After a while, Lily and Ben looked at each other. They saw that their toys were not as fun without their friend. They missed each other. They wanted to say sorry, but they did not know how.

Then, they heard a bird singing in the tree. It was a colorful bird, with green, blue and yellow feathers. It looked happy and free. It made a beautiful sound.

Lily and Ben smiled. They liked the bird. They forgot their fight. They walked towards the tree. They met in the middle.

"Hi, Lily," Ben said.

"Hi, Ben," Lily said.

"I'm sorry I was mean to you," Ben said.

"I'm sorry too," Lily said.

They hugged and said they were still friends. They gave each other their toys. They played with the bird. They felt peace in their hearts. They were happy again.
Lily and Ben are kids who like to play in the park. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. But sometimes, Ben likes to tease Lily and make her mad. He says things like "You are too slow!" or "You are too scared!" or "You are too silly!"

One day, they are playing on the slide. Lily goes first and slides down fast. She laughs and says "That was fun!" Ben goes after her and slides down faster. He says "That was easy! You are too slow, Lily!" Lily feels angry and says "No, I am not! You are too mean, Ben!"

They go up the slide again and again. Each time, Ben teases Lily more and more. He says "You are too scared to go down backwards!" or "You are too silly to go down sideways!" or "You are too weak to go down without holding on!" Lily feels more and more angry and says "No, I am not! You are too rude, Ben!"

The last time, Ben goes down the slide first. He slides down very fast and says "You are too boring, Lily! You always go down the same way!" Lily goes after him and slides down very fast too. But she is not careful. She slides down too fast and bumps into Ben. They both fall off the slide and land on the ground. They both cry and say "Ow, ow, ow!"

A lady who works in the park hears them and comes to help. She says "What happened, kids? Are you hurt?" Lily and Ben tell her what happened. They both say "It was his fault!" or "It was her fault!" The lady says "No, it was both your faults. You should not tease each other and you should be careful on the slide. Teasing is not nice and sliding is not safe. You should say sorry to each other and be friends again."

Lily and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say "Sorry, Lily" or "Sorry, Ben". They hug each other and say "Let's be friends again". The lady says "That's good, kids. Now, do you want a band-aid for your boo-boos?" Lily and Ben say "Yes, please". The lady gives them each a band-aid and says "There you go. Now, be nice and be careful, okay?" Lily and Ben say "Okay". They thank the lady and go back to play. But this time, they do not tease each other. They share and take turns and have fun. They are happy and so is the lady.
Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.

"Let's go on the slide!" Lily says. "It looks like fun!"

"OK!" Tom says. "But we have to wait for our turn."

They run to the slide. But there are many kids in line. They have to wait a long time.

Lily gets bored. She does not want to wait. She sees a seat near the slide. She has an idea.

"I know!" she says. "Let's sit on the seat and push each other. It will be fun!"

Tom thinks. He does not think it is a good idea. He thinks it is not safe. He thinks they might fall or hurt someone.

"I don't think so," he says. "It is not smart to sit on the seat and push each other. It is not for sliding. It is for sitting. We might fall or hurt someone. We should wait for our turn on the slide. It is more fun and more safe."

Lily does not listen. She sits on the seat and pushes Tom. Tom falls off the seat. He hurts his knee. He cries.

Lily feels bad. She sees that Tom is right. She is sorry. She helps Tom up. She says sorry.

"I'm sorry, Tom," she says. "You are right. It is not smart to sit on the seat and push each other. It is not fun. It is bad. I should have listened to you. Are you OK?"

Tom is OK. He is not mad. He is a good friend. He says it is OK.

"It's OK, Lily," he says. "I'm OK. You are a good friend. You said sorry. Next time, let's be smart and safe. Let's wait for our turn on the slide. It will be more fun."

Lily and Tom hug. They are happy. They wait for their turn on the slide. They have fun.

The end.

Moral value: The story teaches that it is important to listen to others, to be smart and safe, and to say sorry when you make a mistake.

Lily and Tom see a big stick. They want to play with it. They try to pick it up, but it is too heavy. They have an idea. They can pass it to each other.

Lily and Tom stand on opposite sides of the river. They throw the stick to each other. They catch it and throw it back. They have fun. They laugh and shout.

But then, something bad happens. The stick lands in the water. The water is fast. It takes the stick away. Lily and Tom are sad. They lose their stick.

They look at each other. They are still friends. They hug and smile. They can find another stick. They can play another game. They are happy.
Tim and Sue were friends who liked to play in the woods. One day, they found a cabin that looked old and empty. They wanted to see what was inside, so they opened the door and went in.

"Wow, look at all these things!" Tim said, pointing to a shelf with books and toys. "Maybe someone left them for us to play with."

"Or maybe someone still lives here and will be angry if we touch them," Sue said, feeling scared. "I don't think we should stay here, Tim. Let's go back."

But Tim did not listen. He picked up a book and opened it. He saw pictures of animals and words he did not know. He tried to read them out loud.

"This is a bear. It is big and brown and has sharp teeth. It lives in the woods and eats fish and honey. It is rare to see a bear, because it is shy and sleeps a lot."

As he said the last word, he heard a loud growl behind him. He turned around and saw a big and brown and angry bear standing in the corner of the cabin. It had been sleeping there, and Tim had woken it up.

The bear roared and charged at Tim and Sue. They screamed and ran to the door, but it was too late. The bear caught them and bit them and hurt them very much. They cried and wished they had never gone into the cabin.

The bear did not welcome them. It wanted them to go away. But they could not go away. They were stuck in the cabin with the bear. And they were very, very sorry.
Lila and Ben are friends who like to play outside. They have a race to see who can run faster to the big tree. Lila is very independent and does not like to lose. Ben is kind and likes to have fun.

"Ready, set, go!" Ben shouts and they both start to run. Lila runs as fast as she can, but Ben is faster. He reaches the tree first and turns around to cheer for Lila. "You can do it, Lila!" he says.

Lila is angry and does not want to finish the race. She stops and looks at the ground. She sees a shiny rock that sparkles in the sun. She picks it up and examines it. She thinks it is very pretty and special.

"Wow, what is that?" Ben asks as he runs back to Lila. He wants to see the rock too. He tries to take it from Lila, but she holds it tight. "No, it is mine!" she says. "I found it, it is my prize!"

Ben is sad and does not understand why Lila is so mean. He does not want to fight with her. He says, "I am sorry, Lila. I just wanted to look at it. It is a very nice rock. But you can keep it, if you want. Can we still be friends?"

Lila feels bad and realizes that she was not nice to Ben. She says, "I am sorry, too, Ben. I was mad because you won the race. But you are a good friend and you are fast. You can look at the rock, if you want. And we can share it, if you want. Can we still be friends?"

Ben smiles and says, "Yes, we can still be friends. And we can share the rock, if you want. It is a very special rock. Maybe it has magic powers. Do you want to play with it?"

Lila smiles and says, "Yes, I want to play with it. And maybe we can have another race later. But this time, we can run together, not against each other. What do you think?"

Ben nods and says, "I think that is a great idea. Let's go and have fun!"

They hold hands and run to the big tree, where they play with the rock and imagine that it has magic powers. They are happy and forget about the race. They are independent, but they are also friends.
Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Mia wants to go first. She runs to the slide and climbs up.

"Wait for me!" Tom says. He follows her.

"No, I go first!" Mia says. She slides down fast. She laughs.

Tom is sad. He thinks Mia is not fair. He wants to slide too. He climbs up again.

"Mia, can I go now?" Tom asks.

Mia shakes her head. She slides down again. She laughs louder.

Tom is angry. He thinks Mia is very mean. He wants to make her stop. He climbs up again.

"Mia, please let me go!" Tom begs.

Mia sticks out her tongue. She slides down again. She screams.

Tom does not listen. He slides down too. He slides down very fast. He bumps into Mia. They both fall off the slide. They both hurt their mouths. They both cry.

The end.
Ben and Lily liked to play with blocks. They made many structures with them. They made houses, towers, bridges, and cars. They had fun and used their imagination.

One day, they decided to make a big castle with all their blocks. They worked hard and carefully. They used big blocks for the walls, small blocks for the windows, and round blocks for the towers. They made a gate, a flag, and a moat. They were very proud of their structure.

"Look at our castle!" Ben said. "It is so big and strong!"

"Yes, it is!" Lily said. "It is the best structure ever!"

They wanted to show their castle to their mom. They called her to come and see. Mom came and smiled. She was happy to see their structure.

"Wow, what a wonderful castle!" Mom said. "You two did a great job!"

"Thank you, Mom!" Ben and Lily said. They hugged her.

Mom looked at their structure. She saw that it was reliable. It did not fall or break. It was stable and solid.

"Your structure is very reliable," Mom said. "It can stand any wind or rain."

"Really?" Ben asked.

"Yes, really," Mom said. "You used good blocks and good skills. You made a reliable structure."

Ben and Lily felt happy. They learned a new word. They learned that reliable meant good and strong. They thanked Mom for teaching them. They thanked each other for helping. They played with their structure and had more fun.
Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play near the river. They saw many fish in the water and wanted to catch them. They had a net and a bucket, but the fish were too fast and smart. They could not catch any fish.

"Let's try something else," Tim said. "I have an idea. We can bite the fish with our teeth. Then they will not swim away."

Sam thought that was a silly idea, but he followed his brother. They took off their shoes and socks and went into the river. They opened their mouths and tried to bite the fish. But the fish were still too fast and smart. They could not bite any fish.

Then, Tim saw a big fish with shiny scales. He thought it was the perfect fish. He wanted to bite it very much. He swam closer and closer to the big fish. He did not see that the big fish had sharp teeth and a mean look. He did not hear Sam shouting, "Tim, no! That is not a fish! That is a crocodile!"

The crocodile saw Tim and opened its mouth. It bit Tim with its teeth. Tim felt a lot of pain and screamed. Sam was very scared and ran to the shore. He called for help, but it was too late. The crocodile dragged Tim under the water and ate him.

Sam cried and cried. He wished he had not listened to his brother. He wished they had not tried to bite the fish. He learned a hard lesson. He learned that biting is bad and dangerous. He learned that some things are not what they seem. He learned that the river is not a place to play.
Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big hill. They want to go up the hill and see what is on the other side.

"Let's go, Lily!" Ben says. "We can use this basket to carry our toys and snacks."

"OK, Ben!" Lily says. "But we have to be brave. The hill is very high and steep."

They put their toys and snacks in the basket and start to climb the hill. They hold hands and help each other. They see birds and flowers and rocks on the way. They are having fun.

But when they reach the top of the hill, they see something that makes them scared. It is a big dog. The dog is barking and growling. It looks angry and hungry.

"Run, Lily, run!" Ben shouts. "The dog wants our basket!"

They drop the basket and run down the hill as fast as they can. The dog chases them, but they are faster. They reach the park and find their moms.

"Mom, mom, we saw a big dog on the hill!" Lily says. "It was scary!"

"Mom, mom, we left our basket on the hill!" Ben says. "It had our toys and snacks!"

Their moms hug them and tell them they are brave and smart. They say they will get their basket later, when the dog is gone. They give them some juice and cookies and tell them they love them.

Lily and Ben are happy. They are still friends. They decide to play in the park and not go up the hill again. They say they will find another adventure next time.
Ben loved to play with his toy train. It had a red engine and four blue cars. He liked to make it go around the track and make choo-choo noises. He pretended he was the driver and took passengers to different places.

One day, his train stopped working. He pushed the button, but the engine did not move or make any sound. He tried to change the batteries, but it did not help. He felt very sad and miserable. He wanted his train to work again.

He asked his dad for help. His dad was good at fixing things. He took the engine and opened it with a screwdriver. He looked inside and saw a broken wire. He said, "Don't worry, Ben. I can repair this. I just need some tape and a new wire."

He went to his toolbox and got what he needed. He cut a piece of wire and taped it to the broken one. He closed the engine and put the screw back. He gave the engine to Ben and said, "Try it now."

Ben pushed the button and smiled. The engine moved and made choo-choo noises. He thanked his dad and hugged him. He put the engine back on the track and added the cars. He played with his train happily. He was not miserable anymore. He was very glad his dad could repair his engine.
Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. One day, they find a big motor in the garage. It is shiny and noisy.

"Wow, look at this!" Tom says. "Can we play with it?"

"I don't know," Sam says. "Maybe it is not ours. Maybe it is Dad's."

They go closer to the motor. They see a button. Tom wants to press it. Sam is scared.

"Stop, Tom!" Sam says. "Don't touch it! It might be dangerous!"

But Tom does not listen. He presses the button. The motor starts to make a loud sound. It shakes and smokes. Tom and Sam are afraid. They run away from the motor.

Dad hears the noise. He enters the garage. He sees the motor. He sees Tom and Sam. He is angry.

"Who did this?" Dad asks. "Who turned on the motor?"

Tom and Sam look at each other. They are sorry. They do not want to lie. They do not want to make Dad more angry.

"It was me," Tom says. "I pressed the button. I wanted to play with the motor. I am sorry, Dad."

Dad sighs. He turns off the motor. He looks at Tom and Sam. He is not angry anymore. He is kind.

"I am glad you are honest, Tom," Dad says. "But you should not play with things that are not yours. The motor is not a toy. It is for my work. It can be dangerous. You could get hurt. Do you understand?"

Tom and Sam nod. They understand. They hug Dad. They say sorry again.

"It's okay, boys," Dad says. "I forgive you. But next time, ask me first. And be careful. I love you."

Tom and Sam smile. They love Dad too. They go to play with their cars and trucks. They do not touch the motor again.
Tim and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new fence in the park. The fence is tall and blue. It has many pictures on it.

"Wow, look at the fence!" Tim says. "It is so pretty!"

"Yes, it is!" Lily agrees. "Who made the pictures?"

They walk closer to the fence. They see a man with a big can. He is spraying paint on the fence. He is making a new picture.

"Hello, sir!" Tim says. "What are you doing?"

"Hello, kids!" the man says. "I am making art. I am painting the fence."

"Why are you painting the fence?" Lily asks.

"Because I want to make it original. I want to make it different and special. I want to share my ideas with everyone who sees it."

"Do you understand?" the man asks.

Tim and Lily nod. They think the man is very clever and kind. They like his art. They think the fence is original.

"Can we help you?" Tim asks.

"Sure, you can!" the man says. "Here, take these cans. You can paint your own pictures on the fence. But be careful, the paint is wet and sticky."

Tim and Lily are happy. They take the cans and start to paint. They make their own original pictures on the fence. They have fun. They thank the man for letting them help. They go home with paint on their hands and smiles on their faces. They understand that art is a way of expressing yourself. They understand that original means different and special. They understand that the fence is not just a fence, but a canvas.
Lily liked to play with her costume. She had a dress with many colors and a crown with shiny stones. She felt like a princess when she wore it. She liked to pretend she was in a castle with her friends and animals.

One day, her mom told her to be obedient and not play with her costume. She said it was dirty and needed to be washed. She said Lily could play with her other toys instead. But Lily did not listen. She wanted to play with her costume. She thought her mom would not know.

She waited until her mom was busy in the kitchen. Then she ran to her room and took her costume from the closet. She put it on and looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled and twirled. She felt happy.

But then she heard a loud noise. She turned around and saw her dog, Max, jumping on her bed. He saw her costume and wanted to play with it too. He barked and ran towards her. He bit her dress and pulled it. He tore it with his teeth. He made holes and rips in it. He scratched her crown and made the stones fall.

Lily screamed and cried. She tried to stop Max, but he was too strong. He ruined her costume. She was very sad. She heard her mom coming. She knew she was in trouble. She wished she had been obedient. She wished she had not played with her costume. She learned a hard lesson.
Tommy liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He liked to make them zoom and crash on the floor. He had one car that was his favorite. It was red and shiny and had a button that made it disappear.

One day, Tommy was playing with his car in the living room. He pressed the button and the car disappeared. He smiled and waited for it to come back. But it did not come back. He looked around and could not find it. He felt sad and scared. Where did his car go?

He ran to his mom and told her what happened. His mom hugged him and said, "Don't worry, Tommy. We will find your car. It is very value to you. Maybe it is hiding somewhere. Let's look for it together."

They searched the living room, the kitchen, the bedroom, and the bathroom. They could not find the car. Tommy started to cry. He thought he lost his car forever. His mom said, "Maybe it is in the closet. Let's check there."

They opened the closet and saw a pile of clothes and toys. Tommy's mom moved them aside and saw something red and shiny. It was his car! It had reappeared in the closet. Tommy was so happy. He grabbed his car and hugged it. He said, "I found you! You are my normal car again!"

His mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you found your car, Tommy. It must have been a magic car. It can disappear and reappear. That is very cool. But be careful when you play with it. Don't lose it again."

Tommy nodded and said, "I will, mom. Thank you for helping me. I love you and I love my car." He pressed the button and the car disappeared. He laughed and said, "It's okay. I know where it is. It's in my hand." He pressed the button again and the car reappeared. He made it zoom and crash on the floor. He was happy.
Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big gate. The gate has a sign. The sign says "Jungle". Lila and Tom are curious. They want to see the jungle.

They push the gate. The gate is open. They go inside. They see many trees and flowers. They hear many sounds. They see many animals. Some animals are big and scary. Some animals are small and cute. Lila and Tom are excited. They want to explore the jungle.

They walk and run and jump. They have fun. They forget the time. They forget the gate. They go deeper and deeper into the jungle. They get lost. They do not know the way back. They start to feel anxious. They want to go home.

They look for the gate. They do not see the gate. They see a man. The man is angry. The man is the keeper of the jungle. He sees Lila and Tom. He shouts at them. He says "What are you doing here? This is not a place for children. This is a place for animals. You are not allowed here. You are in trouble."

He grabs Lila and Tom. He takes them to the gate. He locks the gate. He calls their parents. He tells them what Lila and Tom did. He says "They are lucky. They could have been hurt by the animals. They should never come here again. They should stay in the park."

Lila and Tom are sorry. They are scared. They cry. They hug their parents. They say "We are sorry. We were curious. We wanted to see the jungle. We did not mean to cause trouble. We will never do it again. We will stay in the park."

Their parents are angry. They are also relieved. They say "We are glad you are safe. We are not glad you disobeyed. You should not go to places you do not know. You should not enter places that are locked. You should listen to the signs. You should be careful and smart."

Lila and Tom nod. They understand. They learn their lesson. They say "We will be careful and smart. We will listen to the signs. We will not enter places that are locked. We will not go to places we do not know."

They go back to the park. They play with their toys. They do not go near the gate. They do not think about the jungle. They are happy. They are friends.
Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. But today, the sky was gloomy and the wind was cold. They felt sad and bored.

"Let's go home," Sara said. "There is nothing fun here."

"No, wait," Ben said. "Look, there is a big hill over there. Maybe we can find something interesting."

Sara and Ben ran to the hill. They saw a hole in the ground. It was dark and deep.

"What is that?" Sara asked.

"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe it is a secret tunnel. Let's go inside."

Sara and Ben crawled into the hole. They used a flashlight to see. They saw many rocks and dirt. They also saw something shiny.

"Wow, what is that?" Ben asked.

He reached for the shiny thing. It was a jewel. It was red and sparkly. Ben was happy. He wanted to keep it.

"Look, Sara, I found a jewel. It is so pretty. Can I have it?" Ben asked.

Sara looked at the jewel. She liked it too. She wanted to have it.

"No, Ben, it is mine. I saw it first. Give it to me," Sara said.

They both grabbed the jewel. They pulled and tugged. They did not want to share.

"Let go, Sara. It is mine," Ben said.

"No, let go, Ben. It is mine," Sara said.

They both pushed each other. They pushed hard. They pushed too hard. They pushed the wall of the hole. The wall was weak. It broke. The rocks and dirt fell on them. They were trapped.

"Help, help!" Sara and Ben cried. "We are stuck. We can't get out."

They were scared and sorry. They wished they had not fought. They wished they had shared. They wished they had not gone into the hole. They wished they had stayed in the park. They wished they had gone home.
Lily and Max were twins who liked to play and eat. They loved spaghetti with cheese and sauce. Sometimes they had spaghetti for lunch or dinner. Mommy cooked spaghetti for them in a big pot.

One day, Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. They heard Mommy say, "I have a surprise for you. It is something you value very much." Lily and Max were curious. They wanted to know what the surprise was.

They ran to the kitchen and saw Mommy holding a big bowl of spaghetti. "Yay, spaghetti!" they shouted. They ran to the table and sat down. Mommy smiled and said, "This is a special spaghetti. It has a secret ingredient that makes it extra yummy. Can you guess what it is?"

Lily and Max looked at the spaghetti. They saw cheese and sauce, but they also saw something else. Something green and leafy. "What is that?" Lily asked, pointing at the green thing. "Is it a bug?"

Mommy laughed and said, "No, it is not a bug. It is spinach. Spinach is a vegetable that is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy. I put some spinach in the spaghetti to make it more tasty and colorful. Do you want to try it?"

Lily and Max were nosy. They wanted to try the spinach spaghetti. They took a bite and chewed. They made a face. They did not like the spinach. It was bitter and mushy. They spit it out and said, "Yuck, spinach!"

Mommy looked sad and said, "Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you would like it. I know you value spaghetti, but I wanted to make it more fun and nutritious. Maybe you can try it again another time. Or maybe you can eat something else."

Lily and Max felt bad. They saw that Mommy worked hard to make the spaghetti for them. They did not want to hurt her feelings. They said, "We're sorry, Mommy. We value you more than spaghetti. We love you. Can we have a hug?"

Mommy smiled and said, "Of course, you can have a hug. I love you too. You are very sweet and kind. Maybe you can have some fruit or yogurt instead of the spinach spaghetti. Or maybe you can save some for later. Maybe it will grow on you."

Lily and Max hugged Mommy and said, "Thank you, Mommy. You are the best. We will try the spinach spaghetti again later. Maybe we will like it then. Or maybe we can share it with Daddy. He likes spinach, right?"

Mommy nodded and said, "Yes, he does. He will be home soon. Maybe he will like the surprise too. Or maybe he will make a face like you. Let's wait and see."

Lily and Max giggled and said, "Okay, let's wait and see. We love you, Mommy. And we love spaghetti. Even with spinach."
Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big cat with spots on its fur. It was a leopard. The leopard was sleeping under a tree.

"Look, mom, a leopard!" Ben said. "Can we pet it?"

"No, Ben, leopards are wild animals. They can bite and scratch. We have to stay away from them," mom said.

"But it looks so soft and cute," Lily said. "Maybe it wants to be our friend."

Mom shook her head. "Leopards are not pets, Lily. They belong in the jungle, not in the park. Come on, let's go to the swings."

Ben and Lily followed mom to the swings. They had fun pushing each other and going high. They forgot about the leopard.

The leopard woke up from its nap. It was hungry. It smelled something tasty. It saw Ben and Lily on the swings. It crept closer and closer.

"Mom, look, the leopard is coming!" Ben shouted.

Mom turned around and saw the leopard. She screamed and ran to Ben and Lily. But it was too late. The leopard pounced on them and dragged them away.

Mom cried and cried. She wished she had not forgotten about the leopard. She wished she had kept Ben and Lily safe. She wished she had never gone to the park.
Sara and Ben were twins who liked to help their mom and dad. One day, mom asked them to sort the bottles in the kitchen. She said some bottles had water, some had juice, and some had wine. Wine was a drink for grown-ups only, and it was not good for kids.

Sara and Ben nodded and started to sort the bottles. They put the water bottles in one box, the juice bottles in another, and the wine bottles in a third. They worked hard and fast, and soon they were done. They felt proud of themselves.

"Look, mom, we sorted all the bottles!" Sara said.

"Wow, you did a brilliant job, my darlings!" mom said. "Thank you so much for helping me. You are very smart and kind."

Sara and Ben smiled and hugged mom. They were happy to make her happy.

But then, Ben saw a bottle that they had missed. It was red and shiny, and it had a picture of a grape on it. Ben thought it looked like juice, and he was thirsty.

"Hey, Sara, look at this bottle. It must be juice. Can we have some?" Ben asked.

Sara looked at the bottle and shook her head. "No, Ben, that's not juice. That's wine. Mom said wine is not for us. It can make us sick. We should leave it alone."

But Ben did not listen. He was curious and stubborn. He opened the bottle and took a sip. He made a face. It tasted bad. He felt dizzy and sick. He dropped the bottle and it broke. The wine spilled on the floor.

"Ben, what did you do?" Sara cried. "You broke the bottle and made a mess. And you drank wine. Mom will be angry and sad. And you will be in trouble."

Ben realized he had made a mistake. He wished he had listened to Sara and mom. He felt sorry and scared. He started to cry.

Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the broken bottle, the spilled wine, and the crying Ben. She was shocked and worried.

"Ben, what happened? Did you drink wine?" mom asked.

Ben nodded and sobbed. He told mom what he had done. He said he was sorry and he would never do it again.

Mom hugged Ben and checked if he was okay. She was relieved that he was not hurt. She was also angry and disappointed. She told Ben that he had been naughty and foolish. She said he had to clean up the mess and go to his room. She said he had to learn to obey and respect.

Ben nodded and did what mom said. He cleaned up the mess and went to his room. He felt ashamed and sad. He wished he had been good like Sara.

Sara came to Ben's room and gave him a hug. She said she was sorry for him. She said she loved him and hoped he would feel better. She said he should always listen to mom and dad, and to her. She said they knew what was best for him.

Ben hugged Sara and thanked her. He said he loved her and he was sorry for making her worry. He said he had learned his lesson. He said he would always listen to mom and dad, and to her. He said they were brilliant and he was lucky to have them.

The moral of the story is: Listen to your parents and your siblings. They care for you and want you to be safe and happy. Don't be curious and stubborn about things that are not for you. They can harm you and cause trouble. Be smart and kind, and you will make everyone proud and happy.
Sara and Tom were friends who liked to joke with each other. They would make funny faces, tell silly stories, and tickle each other. They had a lot of fun together.

One day, a big storm came to their town. It was called a hurricane. It made the wind blow hard, the rain fall fast, and the trees shake. Sara and Tom were scared. They stayed inside their houses with their families.

The next day, the hurricane was gone. Sara and Tom wanted to see each other and play. They went outside and saw that the storm had made a big mess. There were branches, leaves, and trash everywhere. They also saw that some houses were broken or missing.

Sara and Tom ran to each other and hugged. They were happy that they were safe and that their houses were still there. They decided to help clean up the mess with their families and neighbors.

As they were picking up some branches, they saw a boy they did not know. He was wearing a big hat and a coat. He was laughing and throwing things around. He did not care that he was making more mess and hurting the plants and animals.

Sara and Tom did not like the boy. They thought he was ignorant. He did not know how to be nice and respectful. He did not understand how hard the hurricane was for everyone. They wanted him to stop and go away.

They went to the boy and asked him to stop. They told him that he was being rude and mean. They tried to joke with him and make him smile. But the boy did not listen. He pushed them away and called them names. He said that he was having fun and that they were boring.

Sara and Tom were angry and sad. They did not want to play with the boy. They went back to their families and neighbors. They continued to help clean up the mess. They hoped that the boy would learn to be kind and smart. They hoped that he would not joke in a bad way again.
Sara and Ben were twins. They liked to play outside in the sun. One day, they saw a big sign on the store. It said "Sale". They wanted to go and see what was inside.

"Can we go, Mom?" Sara asked.

"OK, but only for a little while. We have to go home soon," Mom said.

Sara and Ben ran to the store. They saw many things. They saw toys, books, clothes, and candy. They wanted to have everything.

"Look, Ben, a ball!" Sara said. She picked up a red ball. It was soft and bouncy.

"Let me see!" Ben said. He grabbed the ball from Sara. He threw it in the air. It came down and hit a jar. The jar broke. A green goo came out. It smelled bad.

"Yuck!" Sara said. "That's disgusting!"

"Uh-oh," Ben said. "We're in trouble."

A man came. He was angry. He saw the mess. He saw the twins.

"Who did this?" he asked.

Sara and Ben were scared. They did not know what to say.

"Sorry, sir," Mom said. She came to the store. She saw the man. She saw the mess. She saw the twins. "They are my kids. They did not mean to do it. I will pay for the jar."

The man was still angry. He said the jar was very expensive. He said the goo was very rare. He said the twins were very naughty.

Mom was sad. She gave the man some money. She took the twins by the hand. She left the store.

Sara and Ben were sorry. They did not want to make Mom sad. They did not want to break the jar. They did not want to see the goo.

They learned a lesson. They learned to be careful. They learned to share. They learned to say sorry.
Lily and Ben were playing with paper and glue. They liked to cut and stick different shapes and colors. Lily made a big flower with red and yellow petals. Ben made a car with blue and green wheels.

"Look at my flower!" Lily said. "It is so pretty!"

"Look at my car!" Ben said. "It is so fast!"

They showed each other their paper crafts. They smiled and clapped.

But then Ben had an idea. He wanted to change Lily's flower. He took his scissors and cut off some of the petals. He stuck them on his car.

"Hey!" Lily cried. "What are you doing? That is my flower!"

"I am making it better!" Ben said. "Now it has wings!"

Lily was very sad and angry. She did not like Ben's change. She liked her flower the way it was. She grabbed Ben's car and tore off the wheels. She stuck them on her flower.

"Hey!" Ben cried. "What are you doing? That is my car!"

"I am making it better!" Lily said. "Now it has eyes!"

Ben was very sad and angry. He did not like Lily's change. He liked his car the way it was.

They both looked at their paper crafts. They did not look like a flower or a car anymore. They looked like a mess.

They both started to cry.

Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the paper and glue and the tears.

"What happened here?" she asked.

"Lily changed my car!" Ben said.

"Ben changed my flower!" Lily said.

They both pointed at each other.

Mom sighed. She knew they both liked to make things. But they also needed to be kind to each other.

She hugged them and said, "I know you are both creative and smart. But you also have to respect each other's work. You can't change someone else's craft without asking. That is not nice. How would you feel if someone did that to you?"

They both thought about it. They felt sorry for what they did.

They said, "We are sorry, mom. We are sorry, Lily. We are sorry, Ben."

Mom smiled and said, "That's good. Now, why don't you try to make something together? You can use your paper and glue and your imagination. But you have to agree on what you want to make. And you have to be kind and help each other."

They nodded and said, "Okay, mom. We will try."

They wiped their tears and looked at their paper and glue. They decided to make a rocket. They used the red and yellow petals for the fire. They used the blue and green wheels for the windows. They used the rest of the paper for the body.

They worked together and had fun. They made a beautiful rocket.

They showed it to mom. She was very proud of them.

She said, "Wow! That is a wonderful rocket! You did a great job!"

They said, "Thank you, mom. We did it together!"

They hugged mom and each other. They learned to be kind and creative. They were happy.
Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look for bugs and flowers. One day, they found a big, shiny rock that was very pretty. They wanted to keep it, but they did not know how to share it.

"I want the rock!" Tom said.

"No, I want the rock!" Lily said.

They both pulled the rock and tried to take it from each other. They were very angry and sad. They did not want to be friends anymore.

Suddenly, they heard a loud snap. The rock broke in two pieces. They were shocked and scared. They looked at the rock and saw something very mysterious. Inside the rock, there was a heart-shaped crystal that sparkled in the sun. It was the most beautiful thing they had ever seen.

"Wow!" Tom said.

"Wow!" Lily said.

They looked at each other and smiled. They realized that the rock was a gift for them. It was a sign of love. They felt sorry for fighting and hugged each other.

"I'm sorry, Tom. You can have the rock," Lily said.

"I'm sorry, Lily. You can have the rock," Tom said.

They laughed and decided to share the rock. They each took one piece of the heart and put it in their pockets. They felt happy and warm. They knew that they would always be friends and that they would always have love.
Lily and Ben were playing on the farm. They liked to pretend they were animals and make noises. Lily was a cow and Ben was a horse. They found a big pile of hay and decided to make a bed for themselves.

"Let's spread the hay and make it soft," Lily said. She used her hands to move the hay around.

"Okay, but be careful," Ben said. "Don't make a mess or the farmer will be angry."

They worked together to make a cozy nest of hay. They lay down and snuggled. They felt warm and happy.

Suddenly, they heard a loud bark. A big dog ran towards them. It was the farmer's dog, Rex. He liked to chase animals and play. He saw Lily and Ben and thought they were fun.

"Ruff, ruff, ruff!" Rex barked. He jumped on the hay and started to tear it apart. He threw hay in the air and made a big mess.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Lily and Ben shouted. They were scared and angry. They tried to push Rex away, but he was too strong and fast.

"Hey, what are you doing?" The farmer came and saw the chaos. He was not happy. He grabbed Rex by the collar and pulled him away. He looked at Lily and Ben and shook his head.

"You two, get out of the hay. You are not animals, you are children. You should know better than to ruin the hay. The hay is for the real animals, not for you. Go and say sorry and help me clean up."

Lily and Ben felt ashamed. They knew they had done something wrong. They got out of the hay and said sorry to the farmer. They helped him pick up the hay and put it back in the pile. They learned their lesson and never played in the hay again.
Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big dog with a long neck and a red collar. The dog is barking loud and running fast.

"Look, a dog!" Anna says. "I want to pet it."

"Me too!" Ben says. "Let's follow it."

They run after the dog, but the dog is too fast. It goes to a man who is sitting on a bench. The man has a book and a hat.

"Hello, kids," the man says. "Do you like my dog? His name is Spot."

"Yes, we like him!" Anna says. "Can we pet him?"

"Sure, you can," the man says. "But be gentle. He is very friendly, but he doesn't like it when you pull his neck or his tail."

Anna and Ben go to the dog and stroke his fur. The dog wags his tail and licks their faces. He stops barking and makes a happy sound.

"Wow, he is so soft and warm!" Ben says.

"He is so nice and cute!" Anna says.

They play with the dog for a while, then they say thank you and goodbye to the man and the dog. They go back to their mom, who is waiting for them.

"Did you have fun, kids?" mom asks.

"Yes, mom, we had fun!" Anna and Ben say. "We followed a dog with a long neck and a red collar. He was loud, but he was also friendly. We petted him and he liked us. He was the best dog ever!"
Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they disagree. One day, they disagree about what to play. Lily wants to play doctor, but Ben wants to play cars.

"I have a thermometer and a stethoscope. You can be my patient," Lily says.

"No, I want to play cars. I have a red car and a blue car. You can be my driver," Ben says.

They both pull on their toys and start to cry. Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong.

"Why are you crying, my loves?" Mom asks.

"Lily wants to play doctor, but I want to play cars," Ben says.

"Ben wants to play cars, but I want to play doctor," Lily says.

Mom smiles and hugs them. She has a wise idea.

"Why don't you take turns? You can play doctor for a while, and then you can play cars for a while. That way, you can both have fun and share your toys," Mom says.

Lily and Ben think about it. They nod and wipe their tears.

"OK, Mom. That sounds fair. Thank you for your wise idea," they say.

They hug Mom and go back to their room. They decide to play doctor first. Lily uses the thermometer to check Ben's temperature. Ben pretends to cough and sneeze. They laugh and have fun. Then they switch and play cars. Ben drives the red car and Lily drives the blue car. They zoom and beep around the room. They laugh and have fun. They are happy to play together and not disagree.
Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big bear in a cage. The bear looked sad and angry. Lily and Tom wanted to help the bear.

They found a stick and a rock. They threw the rock at the lock of the cage. The lock broke and the cage opened. The bear ran out of the cage. Lily and Tom were happy.

But the bear was not happy. The bear was hungry and scared. The bear saw Lily and Tom. The bear thought they were food. The bear ran towards them. Lily and Tom were afraid.

They tried to run away, but the bear was faster. The bear caught Tom and bit his arm. Tom screamed and cried. Lily saw a fragile flower near her. She picked it up and gave it to the bear. The bear smelled the flower and stopped biting. The bear liked the flower. The bear let go of Tom and licked his wound. Tom stopped crying and smiled.

Lily and Tom made friends with the bear. They gave him more flowers and fruits. The bear was happy and gentle. Lily and Tom were happy and brave. They helped the bear find a new home in the woods. They said goodbye to the bear and went back to the park. They never forgot the bear and the bear never forgot them.
Lily liked to draw with her pencil. She had many colors of pencils, but her favorite was red. She drew flowers, hearts, and stars on her paper. She was very happy.

But then, her brother Max came into her room. He saw her red pencil and wanted it. He said, "Give me your red pencil. I need it for my car."

Lily did not want to give her red pencil. She said, "No, Max. This is my pencil. You have your own pencils. Go away."

Max was angry. He tried to grab the red pencil from Lily. They both pulled and pushed. The pencil broke in half. Lily and Max both cried.

Mom heard the noise and came into the room. She saw the broken pencil and the sad children. She said, "What happened here? Why are you fighting?"

Lily and Max told Mom what happened. Mom said, "You both did wrong. You should not take things that are not yours, Max. And you should not be rude, Lily. You should share and be kind."

Mom urged Lily and Max to say sorry to each other. She said, "If you say sorry, you can both use the red pencil. I can fix it with tape. But you have to be calm and gentle."

Lily and Max nodded. They said sorry and hugged. Mom fixed the red pencil with tape. She gave each child one half of the pencil. They both said thank you and smiled.

Lily and Max drew together with the red pencil. They drew cars, flowers, hearts, and stars. They were very happy.
Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They liked to jump in the big pile of leaves that their dad made with the rake. The rake was a long stick with sharp teeth that could move the leaves. Sometimes, Ben and Lily pretended that the rake was a dragon or a snake.

"Look, Lily, I'm a dragon!" Ben said, grabbing the rake and waving it in the air. He made a loud roar and chased Lily around the pile of leaves.

"Stop, Ben, stop!" Lily said, laughing and running away. She tripped over a rock and fell on the ground. She scraped her knee and it hurt. She started to cry.

Ben heard Lily cry and stopped playing. He dropped the rake and ran to her. He saw the blood on her knee and felt sorry.

"I'm sorry, Lily, I didn't mean to scare you," he said, hugging her. "Are you okay?"

Lily sniffed and nodded. She wiped her tears and smiled.

"I'm okay, Ben, it's just a scratch," she said. "But we should go inside and tell mom. She can put a band-aid on it and make it better."

"Okay, let's go," Ben said, helping Lily up. He picked up the rake and carried it with him. He wanted to put it away so no one else would get hurt.

They walked to the house, holding hands. Mom saw them and smiled.

"Did you have fun playing in the leaves?" she asked.

"Yes, mom, we did," Ben and Lily said.

"But Lily got a boo-boo on her knee," Ben added, showing mom the scrape.

"Oh, poor Lily, let me see," mom said, taking Lily to the bathroom. She cleaned the wound and put a band-aid on it. She kissed Lily's knee and said, "There, all better. You're a brave girl, Lily."

"Thank you, mom," Lily said, hugging her.

"And thank you, Ben, for being a good brother and bringing the rake inside," mom said, praising him. "You're a helpful boy, Ben."

"Thank you, mom," Ben said, smiling.

Mom gave them both a glass of milk and a cookie. She said, "You're both healthy and strong. I'm proud of you."

Ben and Lily drank their milk and ate their cookies. They felt happy and loved. They decided to play with their toys instead of the rake. They knew that the rake was not a toy, but a tool. They learned their lesson.
Lily and Tom were playing in the park with their dog, Rex. They liked to throw a ball and watch Rex run and catch it. But today, the sky was gloomy and dark. It looked like it was going to rain soon.

"Let's go home, Lily," Tom said. "I don't like this weather. It makes me sad."

"OK, Tom," Lily said. "But let's give Rex one more throw. He loves the ball so much."

Lily picked up the ball and threw it as far as she could. Rex ran after it, barking happily. But when he got to the ball, he saw something else. It was a big, black cat, sitting on a fence. Rex did not like cats. He wanted to bite the cat and make it go away.

Rex dropped the ball and jumped on the fence. He tried to bite the cat, but the cat was fast and smart. It hissed and scratched Rex's nose. Then it jumped off the fence and ran away. Rex wanted to chase the cat, but he could not. He was stuck on the fence. He could not get down.

Lily and Tom heard Rex's whines and ran to him. They saw him on the fence, with blood on his nose. They felt sorry for Rex. They wanted to help him.

"Rex, Rex, don't worry," Lily said. "We will get you down. You are a good dog. You don't need to bite cats."

Tom found a chair and put it under the fence. He climbed on the chair and reached for Rex. He lifted him off the fence and hugged him. Rex licked Tom's face and wagged his tail. He was happy to escape from the fence.

Lily and Tom took Rex home. They cleaned his nose and gave him a treat. They told their mom what happened. She said Rex was brave, but he should be careful. She said cats and dogs can be friends, if they are nice to each other.

Lily and Tom agreed. They said they would teach Rex to be nice to cats. They said they loved Rex very much. Rex barked and cuddled with them. He loved them too. He forgot about the gloomy sky and the mean cat. He was happy to be with his family.
Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big boat on the water. It was white and shiny and had many windows.

"Wow, look at that boat!" Sara said. "It is so big and pretty!"

"That is not a boat, silly," Ben said. "That is a yacht. A yacht is a special boat for rich people."

"How do you know that?" Sara asked.

"I heard Mom and Dad talk about it. They said they wish they had a yacht. They said it would make them happy and they would gain a lot of money."

Sara and Ben ran to the edge of the water and waved at the yacht. They hoped someone would wave back. But no one did. The yacht sailed away and soon it was gone.

Sara and Ben felt sad. They wanted to see the yacht again. They wanted to go on the yacht and have fun.

"Maybe we can have a yacht when we grow up," Sara said.

"Maybe," Ben said. "But I think I like our normal boat better. Our normal boat is small and cozy and we can row it together. And Mom and Dad always smile when we go on our normal boat. They say they love us and they are proud of us."

Sara and Ben hugged each other. They decided they did not need a yacht. They had a normal boat and a normal family and that was enough. They ran back to the park and played with their friends. They were happy and they did not want to gain anything else.
Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play with their computer. They had many games and pictures on it. But their mom said they could only use it for one hour every day. She said too much computer was bad for their eyes and brains.

One night, Ben and Mia had a plan. They waited until their mom and dad were sleepy and went to bed. Then they sneaked out of their room and went to the living room. They turned on the computer and put on their headphones. They played their favorite game, where they had to escape from a big dragon.

They were having so much fun that they did not hear their mom coming down the stairs. She saw the light from the computer and walked quietly to the couch. She was very angry and said, "Ben and Mia, what are you doing? It is past your bedtime. You know you are not allowed to use the computer at night. Turn it off right now and go to your room."

Ben and Mia were scared and sorry. They turned off the computer and took off their headphones. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We just wanted to play a little more. We did not mean to break the rule. Please do not be mad at us."

Their mom sighed and said, "I am not mad, but I am disappointed. You should know better than to disobey me. The computer is not a toy. It is a tool that you have to use wisely and responsibly. Now go to your room and sleep. Tomorrow we will talk more about this."

Ben and Mia nodded and hugged their mom. They said, "We love you, mom. We will not do it again. Good night." They went to their room and crawled into their beds. They were very sleepy and soon fell asleep. They dreamed of dragons and computers and mom.
Mia and Sam were friends. They liked to play together at the park. One day, they saw a big bus with many people. The bus had a sign that said "City Tour".

"What is that?" Mia asked.

"It is a tour," Sam said. "They go to see different places in the city."

"Can we go too?" Mia asked.

Sam shook his head. "No, we need money and tickets. And we need to ask our moms and dads."

Mia felt sad. She wanted to see the city. She looked at the bus. It was leaving soon.

Then, a nice lady came to them. She had a big smile and a badge. She worked for the bus company.

"Hello, kids," she said. "Do you want to join the tour? I have two extra tickets. You can come with me. I will show you the city."

Mia and Sam looked at each other. They were surprised and happy.

"Really?" Mia asked.

"Yes, really," the lady said. "But you have to ask your parents first. Where are they?"

Mia and Sam pointed to the bench where their moms and dads were sitting. They ran to them and told them about the offer.

Their parents agreed. They thanked the lady and followed her to the bus.

Mia and Sam were very excited. They got on the bus and sat by the window. They saw many things they had never seen before. They saw tall buildings, bridges, parks, museums, and shops. They learned new words and facts. They had fun.

The lady was very kind. She gave them snacks and stickers. She answered their questions and told them stories.

Mia and Sam had the best tour ever. They were not miserable. They were happy.
Lily and Max are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big plant in a pot. The plant has green leaves and red flowers. Lily and Max think the plant is pretty.

One day, Mom tells them to behave. She has to go to the store. She says, "Do not touch the plant. It is not a toy. It is fragile. It can break. I will be back soon."

Lily and Max nod. They say, "Okay, Mom. We will behave. We will not touch the plant." Mom smiles and leaves.

But after a while, Lily and Max get bored. They want to have fun. They look at the plant. They wonder what it feels like. They forget what Mom said.

Lily says, "Let's touch the plant. It looks soft and fuzzy. Maybe it can talk to us." Max says, "Okay. Let's touch the plant. Maybe it can hear us. But we have to be quiet. Mom will not know."

They tiptoe to the plant. They reach out their hands. They touch the leaves and the flowers. They say, "Hello, plant. How are you? Do you like us?"

But the plant does not answer. The plant is deaf. It cannot hear them. It cannot talk to them. It only grows and makes food from the sun.

Lily and Max do not know that. They think the plant is rude. They get angry. They say, "Hey, plant. Why do you not talk to us? Why do you not like us? Are you mean?"

They pull the leaves and the flowers. They make the plant sad. They make the plant hurt. They make the plant fall. The pot breaks. The soil spills. The plant dies.

Mom comes back. She sees the mess. She sees the plant. She is shocked. She is sad. She is mad. She says, "Lily and Max, what did you do? Why did you not behave? Why did you not listen to me? You killed the plant. You broke the pot. You made a mess. You are naughty."

Lily and Max are scared. They are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not mean to. We wanted to play with the plant. We wanted to talk to the plant. But the plant was deaf. It did not talk to us. It did not like us. We got angry. We made a mistake."

Mom sighs. She says, "Lily and Max, the plant was not deaf. The plant was not rude. The plant was not mean. The plant was alive. It had feelings. It needed water and sun and care. It could not talk to you. It could not hear you. It was not a toy. It was a living thing. You should not have touched it. You should have behaved. You should have listened to me. You have to learn to respect nature. You have to learn to be gentle. You have to learn to say sorry. You have to learn from your mistake."

Lily and Max nod. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will learn. We will respect nature. We will be gentle. We will say sorry. We will not make the same mistake again."

Mom hugs them. She says, "I love you, Lily and Max. I forgive you. But you have to help me clean up. And you have to find a new plant. And you have to take care of it. And you have to behave."

Lily and Max say, "We love you, Mom. We will help you. We will find a new plant. We will take care of it. We will behave."
Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big motorcycle parked near the swings. They run to look at it.

"Wow, it is so shiny and loud!" Ben says. He tries to touch the motorcycle, but it is too high for him.

"Be careful, Ben. It is not ours. And it is very heavy. It can hurt you if it falls," Anna says. She pulls Ben away from the motorcycle.

They hear a voice behind them. It is the owner of the motorcycle. He is a tall man with a helmet and a jacket.

"Hello, kids. Do you like my motorcycle?" he asks.

"Yes, we do. It is very cool. But we did not touch it. We know it is yours," Anna says.

"That's good. I'm glad you are polite and careful. Do you want to sit on it for a minute? I can hold it for you," he says.

He lifts Ben and puts him on the seat of the motorcycle. Ben smiles and pretends to drive. He makes vroom-vroom noises.

"Can I try too?" Anna asks.

"Sure, you can. Here you go," he says. He lifts Anna and puts her next to Ben. They both laugh and enjoy the ride.

"Thank you, mister. You are very nice," Anna says.

"You're welcome, kids. You are very sweet. But now I have to go. I have to meet my friend. He has a motorcycle too. Maybe you will see him someday," he says.

He takes them off the motorcycle and puts them on the ground. He puts on his helmet and starts the engine. The motorcycle makes a loud roar.

"Bye, mister. Have fun with your friend," Ben says.

"Bye, kids. Have fun in the park. And remember, always wear a helmet if you ride a motorcycle," he says.

He waves at them and drives away. Anna and Ben wave back. They are happy. They go back to the swings and talk about the motorcycle. They mention it to their mom when she comes to pick them up. She is happy too. She gives them a hug and a kiss. They go home and tell their dad about the motorcycle. He is happy too. He gives them a hug and a kiss. They have a good day. They dream about motorcycles.
Lily was a young girl who loved popcorn. She liked to eat it when she watched movies with her mom and dad. Sometimes, they would make popcorn at home and put butter and salt on it. Other times, they would buy popcorn at the movie theater and share a big bag.

One day, Lily and her mom went to the mall. They saw a lot of shops and people. Lily saw a toy store, a candy store, and a book store. She wanted to go inside and look at everything. But her mom said they had to hurry. They had to meet dad at the movie theater.

Lily and her mom walked fast. Lily saw a big sign that said "Popcorn". She smelled the popcorn and it made her hungry. She saw a man selling popcorn in a cart. He had a lot of bags of popcorn. Lily wanted some popcorn. She asked her mom if they could buy some. But her mom said no. They already had popcorn at the movie theater. They had to keep walking.

Lily was sad. She really wanted some popcorn. She looked at the man and the cart. She saw a bag of popcorn that was close to the edge. She thought maybe she could take it. She thought the man would not see her. She thought her mom would not see her. She thought it would be okay.

She was wrong.

She reached for the bag of popcorn. But the bag was heavy. It fell off the cart. It made a loud noise. The popcorn spilled everywhere. The man saw her. He was angry. He yelled at her. He said she was a bad girl. He said she had to pay for the popcorn. He said he would call the police.

Lily was scared. She started to cry. She ran to her mom. Her mom saw what happened. She was mad. She said Lily was naughty. She said she was sorry to the man. She said she would pay for the popcorn. She said they had to go home. She said they could not watch the movie.

Lily was sad. She did not get any popcorn. She did not get to see the movie. She did not get to have fun. She got in trouble. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had not tried to take the popcorn. She learned a hard lesson. She hoped her mom and dad would forgive her. She hoped she would do better next time.
Lily and Ben are twins. They like to go out with Mom and Dad on Sundays. They wake up early and put on their clothes. Lily wears a blue dress and Ben wears a blue shirt. They look like two blue birds.

Mom and Dad take them to the car and drive to a restaurant. The restaurant has many tables and chairs and a big window. They sit near the window and look outside. They see cars and trees and people.

A nice lady comes to their table and smiles. She asks, "What do you want to eat?" Mom and Dad order eggs and toast and coffee. Lily and Ben order pancakes and juice. They say, "Please and thank you."

The nice lady brings their food and they eat. The pancakes are hot and sweet and the juice is cold and sour. They like their food very much. They talk and laugh and have fun.

When they finish, Mom and Dad pay the nice lady and give her a tip. They say, "Goodbye and have a nice day." The nice lady says, "You too. Come back soon." They leave the restaurant and go back to the car. They are happy and full. They go home and play. They love Sundays.
Sam and Lily liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to race them on the floor and make loud noises. But sometimes their cars stopped moving. They needed batteries to make them go.

One day, Sam and Lily wanted to play with their cars, but they could not find any batteries. They looked in the drawer, in the closet, and under the bed. They only found one battery, and it was very small.

"Can we share this battery?" Sam asked.

"I don't think so," Lily said. "It is too small for our cars. It will not make them go fast."

"Maybe we can ask Mom for more batteries," Sam said.

They ran to the kitchen, where Mom was making lunch. They showed her the small battery and asked for more.

"Sorry, kids, we don't have any more batteries right now," Mom said. "We need to go to the store and buy some. But we can't go today, because it is raining."

Sam and Lily felt sad. They wanted to play with their cars, but they had no batteries.

"Can we play with something else?" Lily asked.

"Sure, you can play with something else," Mom said. "How about your blocks? You can build anything you want with your blocks. You don't need batteries for your blocks."

Sam and Lily thought about it. They liked their blocks, too. They had many blocks of different shapes and colors. They could make towers, bridges, houses, and animals with their blocks.

"Okay, let's play with our blocks," Sam said.

They ran to their room, where their blocks were in a big box. They dumped the blocks on the floor and started to build. They had fun making different things with their blocks. They did not need batteries for their blocks. Their blocks were dependable. They did not stop working.

"Look, I made a car with my blocks!" Sam said.

"Wow, that's a nice car!" Lily said. "Can I make one, too?"

"Sure, you can make one, too," Sam said. "We can make many cars with our blocks. And we can race them on the floor and make loud noises."

Sam and Lily smiled. They forgot about their toy cars and their small battery. They played with their blocks for a long time. They learned that they could have fun with anything, as long as they used their imagination. They also learned that sometimes, less is more.
One day, an adventurous boy named Tom went to the park with his mom. He loved to play on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. He also liked to pretend he was a dinosaur, and roar and stomp around.

But there was a problem. Some other kids did not like Tom's dinosaur game. They said he was too loud and scary. They told him to stop being a dinosaur and go away. Tom felt sad and angry. He did not want to stop. He liked being a dinosaur.

Then, he had an idea. He saw a big hill behind the park. He thought it looked like a volcano. He ran to the hill and climbed to the top. He pretended he was a dinosaur on a volcano. He roared and stomped even louder. He felt happy and free.

The other kids saw Tom on the hill. They were curious. They wondered what he was doing. They decided to join him. They climbed the hill and asked him if they could play with him. Tom said yes. He taught them how to be dinosaurs on a volcano. They roared and stomped together. They had fun.

Tom's mom watched from a bench. She smiled. She was glad that Tom found some friends who liked his dinosaur game. She was proud of her adventurous boy.
Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. They have a big calendar on the wall. The calendar has pictures of animals and numbers. Every day, they put a sticker on the calendar to show the date.

One day, Anna and Ben see a special sticker on the calendar. It is a big star with a smiley face. The sticker is on the number 25. Anna and Ben ask their mom what it means.

Mom says, "That is Christmas Day. It is a special day when we celebrate and give gifts to each other. It is in four days."

Anna and Ben are very excited. They jump and clap their hands. They ask, "What gifts will we get, mom?"

Mom says, "You will have to wait and see. But I have a surprise for you today. We are going to the zoo to see the animals. Do you want to go?"

Anna and Ben are more excited. They love the zoo. They say, "Yes, yes, yes! Let's go to the zoo, mom!"

Mom smiles and says, "Okay, then. Get your coats and hats. We are going to have a playful day at the zoo."
Sara and Ben like to play in the park. They have a big ball and a small net. They set the net on the grass and try to kick the ball in. Sometimes they miss and the ball goes far away. They run after it and laugh.

One day, a big dog comes to the park. He sees the ball and wants to play too. He runs fast and grabs the ball in his mouth. He shakes it and makes it wet. Sara and Ben are cross. They want their ball back. They shout at the dog and wave their arms.

The dog does not understand. He thinks they want to play more. He runs away with the ball and looks for a place to hide it. He finds a big tree and digs a hole. He puts the ball in the hole and covers it with dirt. He is happy.

Sara and Ben are sad. They look for their ball but they cannot find it. They sit on a bench and cry. A lady sees them and asks what is wrong. They tell her about the dog and the ball. The lady is gentle. She hugs them and says she is sorry.

She has a small bag with her. She opens it and takes out two new balls. One is red and one is blue. She gives them to Sara and Ben and says they can have them. She says she likes to see children happy. Sara and Ben are happy. They thank the lady and smile. They set the new balls on the grass and play again. They forget about the big dog and the old ball. They have fun.
Tom and Ann liked to play near the old mill. It was big and dark and had many things to see. But their mom and dad told them not to go inside. They said it was dangerous and old and could fall down.

One day, Tom and Ann saw a cat run into the mill. They wanted to follow it and see what it was doing. They forgot what their mom and dad said and went inside. They saw the cat on a high beam, looking down at them. They called to it, but it did not come.

"Come on, kitty, come down!" Tom said.

"No, Tom, we should go back. It is scary here," Ann said.

But Tom did not listen. He saw a ladder and climbed up to the beam. He reached for the cat, but it hissed and scratched him. He let go of the ladder and fell. He hit the floor and did not move.

Ann screamed and ran to him. She saw blood on his head and tears in his eyes. She felt helpless and scared. She did not know what to do.

She heard a loud noise and looked up. The beam was cracking and falling. The cat jumped off and ran away. The mill was falling down.

Ann regretted going inside. She wished she had listened to her mom and dad. She hugged Tom and cried. She hoped someone would come and help them. She hoped Tom would be okay. She hoped it was not too late.
Tim was a shy boy who liked to play with his blocks. He would imagine that he was building a big tower that reached the sky. He wanted to show his tower to his friend Amy, who lived next door. But he was afraid that she would laugh at him or knock it down.

One day, he decided to be brave and invite Amy over. He said, "Amy, do you want to see my tower? I made it with my blocks. It is very big and tall."

Amy smiled and said, "Yes, I want to see your tower. It sounds fun. Can I help you build it?"

Tim was happy and said, "Sure, you can help me. Come to my room. I have many blocks."

They went to Tim's room and saw his tower. It was made of many colors and shapes. Amy said, "Wow, your tower is amazing. You are very good at building. Can I add some blocks?"

Tim said, "Yes, you can. But be careful. Don't make it fall."

They started to add more blocks to the tower. They had fun and talked and laughed. But then, Amy put a block that was too heavy on the top. The tower wobbled and shook. Tim said, "Oh no, Amy, stop! The tower is going to fall!"

But it was too late. The tower crashed to the floor. The blocks scattered everywhere. Tim and Amy were shocked and scared. Tim started to cry. He said, "Amy, you ruined my tower! You are a bad friend! Go away!"

Amy felt sorry and sad. She said, "I'm sorry, Tim. I didn't mean to. I was just trying to help. Please don't be mad at me. Can we fix it?"

But Tim was too angry and hurt. He said, "No, we can't fix it. It's broken forever. You are not my friend anymore. Leave me alone!"

Amy ran out of the room, crying. She wished she could make Tim happy again. But he didn't want to see her. They never played together again. The end.
Anna and Ben are at the park with Mom. They see a big fountain with water that goes up and down. Anna likes the fountain. She runs to it and puts her hand in the water. It is cold and wet.

"Anna, be careful!" Mom says. "Don't get too close to the fountain. You might fall in."

Anna nods. She knows Mom is right. She steps back from the fountain and looks at it. She sees a gray bird on the edge of the fountain. It is a pigeon. It drinks some water and then flies away.

"Look, Ben!" Anna says to her brother. "A bird!"

Ben looks at the fountain. He sees another pigeon. It is brown and white. It has a shiny green neck. It is pretty.

"Can I feed the bird?" Ben asks Mom.

Mom nods. She takes out some bread from her bag and gives a piece to Ben. Ben breaks the bread into small bits and throws them to the pigeon. The pigeon pecks at the bread and makes a cooing sound.

"Thank you, Ben!" the pigeon seems to say.

Ben smiles. He likes the pigeon. He likes the fountain. He likes the park. He is happy.
Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to find things and pretend they were treasure. Ben had a big stick and Lily had a small key. They said the stick was a sword and the key was magic.

"Look, I can open anything with my key!" Lily said. She ran to a big gate and tried to put the key in the lock. But the key was too small and the lock was too big. "Oh no, it doesn't work!" she said.

Ben laughed. "That's because your key is different. It's not for the gate. It's for something else. Maybe something smaller and lighter."

Lily looked around. She saw a small box on a bench. It had a hole that looked like the key. She ran to the box and tried the key. It fit! She turned the key and opened the box. Inside, there was a shiny necklace. "Wow, look what I found!" she said.

Ben came to see. He was surprised. "That's a beautiful necklace. It must be very valuable. It looks heavy. Can I weigh it with my stick?" he asked.

Lily nodded. She gave him the necklace. He put it on his stick and lifted it. But the stick broke in half. The necklace fell to the ground. "Oh no, it's too heavy!" he said.

Lily and Ben looked at each other. They were scared. They heard a voice behind them. "Hey, what are you doing with my necklace?" It was a lady. She looked angry. She had a big dog with her. The dog barked.

Lily and Ben dropped the stick and the key. They ran away as fast as they could. They learned a lesson. They should not touch things that are not theirs. And they should not judge things by how they look. Sometimes, different things can be very special.
Lily and Tom are friends. They like to watch films on the big TV. Today, they want to watch a film about green frogs. They find the film and put it in the DVD player. But the TV does not show the film. It only shows snow.

"Oh no, the film is broken!" Lily says.

"Maybe we can fix it," Tom says.

They look at the DVD player. They see a button that says "eject". They press the button. The film comes out. They look at the film. It has a big scratch on it.

"Maybe we can make the scratch go away," Lily says.

They try to rub the scratch with a cloth. They try to stick a sticker over the scratch. They try to cut the scratch with scissors. But nothing works. The scratch is still there.

"I'm sorry, Lily. I don't think we can fix the film," Tom says.

Lily is sad. She really wanted to watch the film about green frogs. She starts to cry.

"Hey, don't cry, Lily. I have an idea," Tom says.

He goes to his room and comes back with a book. The book has pictures of green frogs. He shows the book to Lily.

"Look, Lily. This is a book about green frogs. We can read the book and pretend it is a film. We can make the sounds of the frogs and act like them. It will be fun," Tom says.

Lily stops crying. She looks at the book. She sees the green frogs. They are cute and funny. She smiles.

"Okay, Tom. Let's read the book and pretend it is a film. Ribbit, ribbit!" Lily says.

They sit on the couch and open the book. They read the book and pretend it is a film. They make the sounds of the frogs and act like them. They have fun. They forget about the broken film. They are happy.
It was cold outside, so Mommy gave Anna a scarf to wear. The scarf was wide and soft and had many colors. Anna liked the scarf very much and wrapped it around her neck.

"Can I go play with Lily?" Anna asked Mommy.

"Yes, but only for a little while. And stay close to the house, okay?" Mommy said.

"I promise, Mommy," Anna said. She kissed Mommy and ran to the door.

Lily was waiting for her in the yard. She had a scarf too, but it was not as wide or as colorful as Anna's. It was white and thin and had a hole in it.

"Hi, Anna. Do you like my scarf?" Lily asked.

Anna did not want to hurt Lily's feelings, but she did not like her scarf very much. She thought it looked old and sad.

"Your scarf is nice, Lily. But do you want to try mine?" Anna offered.

Lily's eyes lit up. She nodded and smiled.

"Thank you, Anna. You are very kind," Lily said.

They traded scarves and played together. They made snowmen and snow angels and threw snowballs. They had a lot of fun.

But soon it was time to go back inside. Anna and Lily hugged and gave back their scarves.

"I like your scarf, Anna. But I like you more," Lily said.

"I like you more too, Lily. You are my best friend," Anna said.

They promised to play again tomorrow and waved goodbye. Anna ran to the door and hugged Mommy.

"Did you have fun, Anna?" Mommy asked.

"Yes, Mommy. I had fun with Lily. And I kept my promise. I stayed close to the house," Anna said.

Mommy smiled and kissed Anna.

"I'm proud of you, Anna. You are a good girl. And you have a beautiful scarf," Mommy said.

Anna smiled and snuggled with Mommy. She felt warm and happy. She loved her scarf and her friend and her Mommy.
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.

But then the wind started to blow. It was very cold and bitter. Lila and Tom felt their fingers and toes go numb. They shivered and hugged each other.

"Let's go home, Tom," Lila said. "I'm too cold."

"Me too," Tom said. "But what about our snowman? He will be lonely."

They looked at their snowman. He looked sad and cold too. They wished they could take him home with them.

Then they had an idea. They ran to the shed and found a bucket and a shovel. They filled the bucket with snow and dug a hole in the ground. They put the bucket in the hole and covered it with more snow. They made a small hole on top of the bucket.

"Look, Tom," Lila said. "We made a volcano for our snowman. He will be warm and happy."

They ran back to their snowman and put the bucket-volcano next to him. They told him to be careful and not to touch the hot snow. They said goodbye and ran home.

The snowman smiled. He felt the heat from the bucket-volcano. He was not cold anymore. He was not lonely anymore. He thanked Lila and Tom for their gift. He was very happy.
Lia and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big bird in the sky. It has black and white feathers and a long beak. Lia wants to fly like the bird.

"Look, Ben, a bird! It can fly so high and fast. I wish I could fly too," Lia says.

"You can't fly, Lia. You are not a bird. You are a girl. Girls can't fly," Ben says.

Lia is sad. She thinks Ben is not fair. She wants to try to fly. She sees a stick on the ground. It looks like a spear. She picks it up and runs to a hill.

"Watch me, Ben. I can fly with this spear. I will throw it in the air and follow it," Lia says.

She throws the spear as hard as she can. It flies for a moment, then falls down. Lia runs after it, but she trips and falls too. She scrapes her knee and cries.

Ben runs to her and helps her up. He sees the blood on her knee and feels sorry.

"I'm sorry, Lia. I didn't mean to be mean. You can't fly, but you can do other things. You are good at drawing and singing and jumping. You are my friend. Do you want a hug?" Ben says.

Lia nods and hugs Ben. She feels better. She still likes the bird, but she likes Ben more.

"Thank you, Ben. You are my friend too. You are good at running and climbing and making jokes. You make me laugh. Do you want to play with the spear?" Lia says.

Ben smiles and nods. He takes the spear and they play together. They pretend to be hunters and warriors and explorers. They have fun and forget about flying. They are happy.
Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the woods. One day, they found a cabin that looked old and empty. They wanted to see what was inside.

"Let's go in!" Ben said.

"Wait, Ben. Mama said we should not go into strange places. She said it could be dangerous." Lily warned.

"But it looks fun. Maybe there are toys or candy inside." Ben said. He opened the door and went in.

Lily followed him, but she felt scared. The cabin was dark and dusty. There were no toys or candy, only spiders and mice. Lily saw a jar on a table. It had a label that said "jam".

"Look, Ben. Jam! Maybe it is sweet." Lily said. She opened the jar and smelled it. It smelled bad. She tasted a little bit. It was sour. She spit it out.

"Yuck! This is not jam. This is bad. Let's go out." Lily said.

But when they tried to go out, the door was locked. They heard a voice outside.

"Who is in my cabin? I will teach you a lesson for stealing my jam." The voice said. It was a mean old man who lived in the cabin. He had a big stick in his hand.

Lily and Ben were very afraid. They wished they had listened to Mama. They cried and shouted for help.

The end.
Tom and Sue are twins. They like to play in the garden. They see many flowers and bugs. They see a big tree with a swing. They run to the swing and take turns.

"Look, Tom, I can swing very high!" Sue says. She pushes her legs and goes up and down.

"I can swing higher, Sue!" Tom says. He pushes harder and harder. He feels the wind in his hair.

But Tom pushes too hard. The rope of the swing breaks. Tom falls to the ground. He cries. Sue stops swinging and runs to him.

"Are you okay, Tom?" Sue asks. She hugs him.

Tom looks at the rope. He sees a bulb on the end of it. The bulb is shiny and round. It is flexible. It can bend and twist.

"Look, Sue, a bulb!" Tom says. He stops crying. He picks up the bulb and shows it to Sue.

"Wow, a bulb!" Sue says. She smiles. She takes the bulb and bends it. It makes a funny shape.

"Where did the bulb come from, Tom?" Sue asks.

Tom looks at the tree. He sees a wire on the branch. The wire is long and thin. It has more bulbs on it.

"Maybe the wire is for lights, Sue," Tom says. "Maybe someone put them on the tree for a party."

"Maybe we can have a party, Tom," Sue says. "We can use the bulbs for decorations. They are flexible. We can make them into anything we want."

Tom and Sue laugh. They forget about the broken swing. They play with the bulbs. They make them into stars, flowers, animals, and letters. They have fun. They see the bulbs shine in the sun.
Lisa liked to go to the big store with her mom. She saw many things that she wanted, but mom said they were too expensive. Expensive means they cost a lot of money. Lisa did not have a lot of money.

One day, mom took Lisa to a different part of the store. There were many jars and cans and boxes of food. Lisa saw a jar that had small green balls in it. She asked mom what they were. Mom said they were olives. Olives are a kind of fruit that some people like to eat.

Lisa wanted to try an olive. She asked mom if she could have one. Mom said yes, but only one. She opened the jar and took out an olive. She gave it to Lisa. Lisa held the olive in her hand. It was slippery and wet. She put it in her mouth. It was salty and sour. Lisa did not like it. She spit it out. Mom laughed and said it was okay. She gave Lisa a napkin to wipe her mouth.

Lisa decided she did not want olives. She wanted something sweet. She saw a box that had a picture of a cake on it. She asked mom if they could buy it. Mom said no, it was too expensive. Lisa was sad. She wanted cake.

Mom saw that Lisa was sad. She hugged her and said she had a surprise for her. She took her to another part of the store. There were many candies and cookies and ice creams. Mom said Lisa could pick one thing. Lisa was happy. She saw a bag that had colorful chocolates in it. She asked mom if she could have it. Mom said yes. She bought the bag and gave it to Lisa. Lisa held the bag in her hand. It was heavy and crinkly. She opened it and took out a chocolate. It was sweet and creamy. Lisa liked it. She smiled and said thank you to mom. Mom smiled and said you're welcome. They went home. Lisa shared her chocolates with mom. They were both happy.
Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to eat cereal for breakfast. But they do not like to share. Every morning, they try to get more cereal than the other.

One day, Tom wakes up early. He sees a big box of cereal on the table. He thinks, "I want all the cereal for me. I will steal it and hide it in my room." He takes the box and runs to his room. He locks the door and starts to eat.

Sam wakes up later. He goes to the kitchen. He does not see any cereal. He is hungry and angry. He asks his mom, "Where is the cereal?"

Mom says, "I don't know. Maybe Tom took it. Go and ask him."

Sam goes to Tom's room. He knocks on the door. He says, "Tom, give me some cereal. I am hungry."

Tom says, "No. This is my cereal. Go away."

Sam says, "That is not fair. You are a bad brother. You stole the cereal. You have to share."

Tom says, "No. I don't have to share. This is mine."

Sam is very sad. He goes back to his mom. He tells her what Tom said. Mom is very disappointed. She says, "Tom, open the door. We need to talk."

Tom opens the door. He sees his mom and Sam. He sees that they are unhappy. He feels guilty. He says, "I'm sorry. I was selfish. I stole the cereal. I should have shared."

Mom says, "Thank you for being honest. But stealing is wrong. You hurt your brother and yourself. You have to learn to be kind and generous. Sharing is caring."

Tom says, "I understand. I will share from now on. Sam, do you want some cereal?"

Sam says, "Yes, please. Thank you, Tom. You are a good brother."

Tom and Sam hug. They go to the kitchen. They eat cereal together. They find out that they have the same favorite flavor. They think, "This is interesting. We have something in common."

Mom smiles. She says, "I'm proud of you, boys. You learned a valuable lesson. Stealing is bad. Sharing is good. And cereal is tasty."
Lily and Ben like to play hide and seek. Lily is good at hiding. She can find a spot behind the sofa, under the bed, or in the closet. Ben is not so good at hiding. He always seems to pick a spot that is too big, too small, or too funny.

One day, Ben decides to hide in the laundry basket. He thinks it is a good spot, because it is big and cozy. He crawls inside and pulls some clothes over him. He waits for Lily to find him.

Lily looks for Ben in all the usual spots. She does not see him behind the sofa, under the bed, or in the closet. She wonders where he is. She hears a noise from the laundry room. She goes to check.

She sees the laundry basket. It is moving and making sounds. She thinks it is silly. She walks over and lifts the clothes. She sees Ben's face. He smiles and says, "Boo!"

Lily laughs and says, "I found you, Ben! You are a silly hider. The laundry basket is not a good spot. It is too funny. Let's play again. You can seek and I can hide."

Ben agrees and gets out of the basket. He says, "OK, Lily. You can hide and I can seek. But this time, I will find you faster. I will look for a spot that is not too big, not too small, and not too funny."

Sam loved waffles. He ate them every morning with butter and honey. He liked to make shapes with his fork on the waffles. Sometimes he made a star, sometimes a heart, sometimes a smiley face.

One day, Sam woke up and smelled something terrible. He ran to the kitchen and saw his dad holding a burnt waffle. His dad looked sad and said, "I'm sorry, Sam. I tried to make you a waffle, but I forgot to watch the timer. It's all black and hard. Do you want to try it?"

Sam shook his head. He did not want to eat a terrible waffle. He said, "No, thank you, dad. Can I have something else?"

His dad nodded and said, "Of course, Sam. What do you want?"

Sam thought for a moment. He wanted something sweet and soft and yummy. He said, "Can I have a banana?"

His dad smiled and said, "Sure, Sam. A banana is a good choice. Do you want to peel it yourself?"

Sam nodded and said, "Yes, please, dad. I can peel it myself. I'm a big boy."

His dad gave him a banana and a plate. Sam peeled the banana and broke it into pieces. He put them on the plate and made a shape with them. He said, "Look, dad. I made a waffle with my banana."

His dad looked and laughed. He said, "You're right, Sam. You made a waffle with your banana. That's very clever. Can I guess what shape it is?"

Sam nodded and said, "Yes, dad. You can guess."

His dad looked at the banana waffle and said, "Is it a star?"

Sam shook his head and said, "No, dad. Try again."

His dad looked again and said, "Is it a heart?"

Sam shook his head and said, "No, dad. One more guess."

His dad looked one more time and said, "Is it a smiley face?"

Sam smiled and said, "Yes, dad. You guessed it. It's a smiley face. Because I'm happy."

His dad hugged him and said, "I'm happy too, Sam. You're a wonderful son. And you make the best banana waffles."
Tom and Lily were playing with their kite in the park. They liked to run and watch the kite fly high in the sky. Sometimes the wind was strong and made the kite go very fast. Sometimes the wind was soft and made the kite go slow.

One day, the wind was very strong and the kite pulled hard on the string. Tom and Lily had to hold on tight. They did not want to lose their kite. They ran and ran with the kite, but the wind did not stop. It made the kite go higher and higher.

Tom and Lily were tired. Their arms and legs hurt. They wanted to stop and rest. But they did not know how to make the kite come down. They looked at each other and did not know what to do.

Then they saw a man walking his dog. The man saw them and smiled. He came over and said hello. He asked them if they needed help. Tom and Lily nodded. They said they were tired and their kite was too high.

The man said he knew how to help. He said they had to release the string a little bit at a time. He said they had to let the kite go down slowly and gently. He said he would show them how.

He took the string from Tom and Lily. He put it over his shoulder. He said they had to watch the kite and the wind. He said they had to release the string when the wind was soft and hold it when the wind was strong. He said they had to be careful and patient.

Tom and Lily watched the man and the kite. They saw him release the string and hold it. They saw the kite go down and up. They saw the kite get closer and closer. They were happy and excited.

After a while, the kite was low enough to catch. The man gave the string back to Tom and Lily. He said they did a good job. He said they had a nice kite. He said goodbye and walked away with his dog.

Tom and Lily thanked the man. They were glad he helped them. They were proud of their kite. They decided to play with it some more, but not too high. They were not tired anymore. They were happy.

One day, Anna and Ben go to the park. But the sky is gray and the wind is cold. They see the big slide. It is wet and shiny.

"Let's slide on the big slide!" Ben says.

"No, Ben, it is too wet. We will slip and fall. It is not safe." Anna says.

But Ben does not listen. He runs to the big slide. He climbs to the top. He smiles and waves at Anna.

"Watch me, Anna!" He says.

He slides down the big slide. But he slides too fast. He cannot stop. He flies off the end of the slide. He lands on the grass. He cries out loud.

"Ow, ow, ow!" He says.

Anna runs to him. She sees his knee. It is red and bloody. She feels sorry for him.

"Are you okay, Ben?" She asks.

"No, Anna, it hurts. I was silly. I should have listened to you." He says.

She helps him stand up. She hugs him.

"It's okay, Ben. We will go home. Mom will make it better. She will put a band-aid on your knee." She says.

They walk home. They hold hands. They are still friends. But they do not slide on the big slide anymore. They learned their lesson.
Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy sail. They put it in the big tub and made it go fast with the wind. They pretended they were pirates and looked for treasure.

One day, they saw a big duck in the tub. The duck was yellow and had a red hat. It looked funny and made a loud noise. Tom and Lily wanted to play with the duck. They sailed their toy sail near the duck and said hello.

But the duck did not want to play. It was angry and scared. It bit the toy sail and made a hole in it. The toy sail started to sink. Tom and Lily were sad and scared. They cried and ran to their mom.

Mom hugged them and said it was okay. She said the duck was just protecting its nest. She said they should not bother the duck and let it rest. She said she would fix the toy sail later.

Tom and Lily felt embarrassed. They said sorry to the duck and to their mom. They learned to be careful and kind to animals. They played with their other toys and waited for their toy sail to be fixed. They still liked to pretend they were pirates, but they stayed away from the duck.
Lily was bored. She had nothing to do in her bedroom. All her toys were dull and old. She wanted to go outside and play with her friends, but it was raining hard. She looked out the window and sighed.

"Mom, can I go out?" she asked.

"No, sweetie, it's too wet and cold. You might get sick. Why don't you read a book or draw a picture?" Mom said.

Lily shrugged. She did not like books or pictures. She liked running and jumping and laughing. She wished the rain would stop.

She went to her closet and opened it. Maybe she could find something fun to wear. She saw a big hat with feathers and a shiny dress. She put them on and looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled. She felt like a princess.

She ran to Mom and showed her. "Look, Mom, I'm a princess!" she said.

Mom smiled too. "You look lovely, Lily. Do you want to have a tea party with me?" she asked.

Lily nodded. She liked tea parties. She and Mom went to the kitchen and set up a table with cups and plates and cookies. They pretended to sip tea and talk about fancy things. Lily forgot about the rain and the dull toys. She had fun with Mom. She was happy.
Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big bird with black and white feathers. It was sitting on a branch and singing.

"Look, a bird!" Tom said. "I want to fly like a bird."

"You can't fly, Tom. You are not a bird. You are a boy," Lily said.

Tom did not listen. He climbed up the tree and tried to jump from the branch. He wanted to fly like a bird.

But Tom could not fly. He fell down and hit the soil. He hurt his head and his arm. He cried very loud.

Lily ran to him and hugged him. She was scared and sad.

"Tom, Tom, are you OK?" Lily asked.

Tom opened his eyes and saw Lily. He felt sorry and silly.

"I'm OK, Lily. I'm sorry. I was silly. I can't fly like a bird. I'm a boy," Tom said.

Lily smiled and kissed him. She helped him get up and go to their mom.

"Mom, Tom fell from the tree. He wanted to fly like a bird," Lily said.

Mom looked at Tom and saw his head and his arm. She was angry and worried.

"Tom, what did you do? You could have been dead. You can't fly like a bird. You are a boy. You have to be careful and listen to Lily. She is your sister and she loves you," Mom said.

Tom felt ashamed and sad. He hugged Mom and said sorry.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I was silly. I can't fly like a bird. I'm a boy. I love you and Lily. I will be careful and listen to Lily," Tom said.

Mom smiled and hugged Tom and Lily. She took them inside and cleaned their wounds. She gave them a cookie and a glass of milk.

"Tom and Lily, you are my children and I love you. You can't fly like a bird, but you can do many other things. You can run and jump and play and learn and laugh and sing. You are special and smart and brave. But you have to be safe and kind and wise. That is how you can be happy and make me happy," Mom said.

Tom and Lily nodded and smiled. They ate their cookie and drank their milk. They thanked Mom and said they loved her. They learned their lesson and never tried to fly like a bird again.

The end.

Moral value: The story teaches that we should be happy with who we are and what we can do, and not try to imitate others who are different from us. It also teaches that we should listen to our parents and siblings who care for us and want us to be safe and happy.

Tom was sad. He did not want to wait. He wanted his mom to see his drawings now. He thought his mom did not care about his drawings. He felt angry.

He decided to do something bad. He took his pens and started to draw on the wall. He drew big and messy lines with his ink. He drew on the wall near the cake. He said, "Now mom will see my drawings!"

His mom heard him and turned around. She saw what he did. She was very mad. She said, "Tom, what have you done? You made a big mess on the wall! You ruined the cake! You are a naughty boy!"

She took his pens and his paper and threw them in the trash. She said, "You will not draw with ink anymore. You will go to your room and stay there. You will not have any cake. You will not have any fun."

They promised to be more careful next time. Their mom smiled and said she loved them. She said they could play with their clothes, but only if they did not twist them or tear them.

Anna and Ben stop and look at Mom. They feel sorry for being mean. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We were just playing with our cars. But we have different ideas about what makes a good car." Mom says, "I see. Well, you know, there is no one right way to play with cars. You can both have your own preferences and still be friends. Why don't you try to find something you both like about your cars and share it with each other?"

Anna and Ben think for a moment. Then Anna says, "I like how your car can support many things on it. That is very clever and strong. Can I try to put something on it too?" Ben says, "Sure, you can. And I like how your car has a lot of speed. That is very exciting and fun. Can I try to make it go fast too?" Anna and Ben smile and nod. They start to play with their cars together. They take turns to put things on Ben's car and make Anna's car go fast. They have a lot of fun and learn from each other.

Mom watches them and smiles too. She says, "That's much better. I'm glad you are getting along and enjoying your cars. But remember, when you are done, you have to tidy up your toys and put them away. OK?" Anna and Ben say, "OK, Mom. We will tidy up when we are done. Thank you for helping us."

"Where are you, little snacks?" the dragon said. "I can smell you. You can't hide from me."

The dragon found Tom and Lily behind the flowers. It opened its mouth and breathed fire. Tom and Lily screamed. They were very scared. They wished they had a sword or a shield to fight the dragon. But they had nothing.

Tommy likes tuna. He eats tuna every day. He thinks tuna is healthy and yummy. He does not like other food. He says no to carrots, apples, eggs, and cheese.

One day, Tommy's mom goes to the store. She wants to buy more tuna for Tommy. But there is no tuna at the store. All the tuna is gone. Mommy asks the store man why. The store man says there is a big problem. Many people want tuna, but there are not enough fish in the sea. The fish are sick and sad. They need clean water and space to swim.

He is alone and scared. He wishes he listened to mommy. He wishes he ate other food. He wishes he cared about the fish and the sea. But it is too late. The tuna has killed him. The end.
Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide that looked fun. Tom wanted to go first, but Lily said no. She said she was older by two minutes, so she should lead. Tom was jealous and angry. He pushed Lily and ran to the slide.

Lily and Ben were playing outside with their snowman. They had made him with a lot of snow, a carrot for his nose, a hat and a scarf. He was very big and chubby. They liked their snowman very much.

But then the sun came out and it got warmer. The snow started to melt. Lily and Ben saw their snowman getting smaller and smaller. They felt sad. They did not want their snowman to go away.

They ran to their mom and asked her to help them. Mom said, "Don't worry, my loves. The snowman is not gone. He is just changing. He is becoming water. And water can make beautiful things too. Look at the sky. Do you see the rainbow?"

Lily and Ben looked up and saw a bright arc of colors in the sky. It was a rainbow. It was made by the sun and the water in the air. It was very pretty. They smiled and said, "Wow, mom, you are right. The water made a rainbow. That is amazing. Thank you, mom."

Mom hugged them and said, "You are welcome, my loves. And don't be sad about the snowman. He will come back again when it gets cold and snows. He is just taking a break. He is happy to see the rainbow too."
Lily liked to watch videos on her tablet. She liked to see animals, songs and stories. But one day, she saw a video that was unusual. It was about a scary clown who made bad jokes and scared people. Lily did not like the video. It made her feel afraid and sad.

She wanted to stop the video, but she did not know how. She tried to touch the screen, but nothing happened. She tried to call her mom, but her mom was busy in the kitchen. She tried to close her eyes, but she could still hear the clown's voice. She wished she had not clicked on the video.

Then, she heard a knock on the door. It was her dad, who came home from work. He saw Lily crying on the couch, holding her tablet. He asked her what was wrong. Lily showed him the video and said, "Daddy, I don't like this video. It's scary and mean. I want to watch something else."

Dad hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, sweetie. This video is not for you. It's for grown-ups who like to laugh at silly things. But I understand why you don't like it. It's not nice to scare people. Let me help you turn it off." He took the tablet and pressed a button. The video stopped.

Lily felt better. She said, "Thank you, daddy. I'm sorry I watched the video. I regret it. Can we watch something else?" Dad smiled and said, "Of course, honey. How about we watch a video of cute puppies? I think you'll like that." He searched for a video of puppies and played it. Lily smiled and said, "Yes, daddy. I like puppies. They're cute and funny. Can we get a puppy?" Dad laughed and said, "Maybe, someday. But for now, let's just watch them and enjoy." They cuddled on the couch and watched the video of puppies. Lily forgot about the scary clown and felt happy.
Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found coins or buttons or rocks. But today they found something very special. It was a gem!

The gem was red and sparkly. It looked like a little star. Lily and Ben were very happy. They wanted to show their gem to everyone. They ran to their mom and dad, who were sitting on a bench.

"Look, look, we found a gem!" they shouted.

Mom and dad smiled and praised them. They said the gem was very pretty and they were very lucky. They asked them where they found it.

"We found it in the sand, over there!" Lily and Ben pointed to the spot where they had dug.

Mom and dad looked surprised. They got up and walked to the sand. They saw a sign that said "Do not dig. This is a flower bed."

"Oh, no," mom said. "You shouldn't have dug here. This is not a place for digging. This is a place for flowers. You might have hurt the flowers or the roots."

Lily and Ben felt embarrassed. They didn't know they had done something wrong. They thought they were just having fun. They didn't want to hurt the flowers or the roots.

They started to complain. They said they were sorry. They said they didn't see the sign. They said they wanted to keep the gem. They said it was theirs.

Mom and dad shook their heads. They said they had to put the gem back. They said it was not theirs. They said it belonged to the park. They said they had to respect the park and the flowers.

Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They didn't want to give up their gem. They thought it was unfair. They cried and stomped their feet.

Mom and dad took the gem from their hands. They said they were sorry, too. They said they understood how they felt. They said they loved them. They said they would find another way to make them happy.

They put the gem back in the sand. They covered it with dirt. They hoped no one would notice. They hoped the flowers and the roots would be okay.

They took Lily and Ben by the hand. They walked to the ice cream truck. They bought them ice cream cones. They said ice cream was better than gems. They said ice cream was sweet and cold and yummy.

Lily and Ben stopped crying. They licked their ice cream cones. They smiled and nodded. They said ice cream was good. They said they loved mom and dad. They said they were sorry for digging in the flower bed.

Mom and dad hugged them. They said they were proud of them. They said they were good kids. They said they forgave them.

They all sat on the bench. They ate their ice cream cones. They watched the birds and the squirrels and the people. They enjoyed the park. They forgot about the gem.
Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big box of toys. They have cars, dolls, balls, and books.

One day, they go to the park with their moms. They find a nice spot under a tree. They open their box of toys and start to play. But soon, they have a problem. Their toys are all mixed up. They can't find what they want.

"Let's organize our toys," Tom says. "We can put the cars here, the dolls there, the balls here, and the books there. Then we can find them easily."

"OK," Lily says. "That's a good idea. You are a smart friend."

They start to organize their toys. They put them in different piles. They are happy.

But then, they hear a loud bark. They look up and see a big dog. The dog is running towards them. He looks angry. He wants their toys.

"Help!" Tom and Lily shout. "Go away, dog!"

They are scared. They hug each other. They don't know what to do.

But then, they see another dog. The other dog is smaller. He is brown and white. He is Tom's dog. His name is Spot. He is loyal. He loves Tom.

Spot runs to the gate of the park. He barks at the big dog. He tells him to leave. He protects Tom and Lily. He is brave.

The big dog stops. He is afraid of Spot. He turns around and runs away. He doesn't want to fight.

Tom and Lily are happy. They thank Spot. They pet him and hug him. They give him a treat.

"You are a good dog," Tom says. "You are a loyal friend."

Spot wags his tail. He is happy too. He likes Tom and Lily. He likes to play with them.

They go back to their toys. They finish organizing them. They play together. They have fun.

They are friends.
Sara liked to play with her green motor. It was a toy car that made a loud noise when she pushed a button. She liked to drive it around the floor and pretend she was going fast.

One day, she saw a new boy in her class. His name was Ben and he had a red motor. It was bigger than Sara's and it had lights and stickers. Sara wanted to play with it, but she was shy.

"Hi, I'm Ben," the boy said to her. "Do you like motors?"

"Yes, I do," Sara said. "I have a green one. It's very noisy."

"Can I see it?" Ben asked.

Sara nodded and showed him her motor. Ben smiled and pushed the button. The motor made a loud noise and they both laughed.

"Your motor is cool," Ben said. "Do you want to see mine?"

Sara nodded again and followed him to his desk. He showed her his red motor and let her push the buttons. The motor had lights and stickers and it made different noises.

"Your motor is cooler," Sara said.

"No, they are both cool," Ben said. "Do you want to play with them together?"

Sara smiled and nodded. She liked Ben. He was nice and he liked motors too.

"Can I invite you to my house after school?" Ben asked. "We can play with more motors. I have a lot."

Sara was happy. She wanted to play with more motors. She wanted to be Ben's friend.

"Yes, please," Sara said. "Can I invite you too?"

Ben nodded and hugged her. They were both happy. They had found a new friend and a new motor.
Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys. Today, they have a big box with a ribbon. It is a gift from their grandma.

"Can we open it now?" Lily asks. She is very excited.

"Yes, let's open it!" Tom says. He pulls the ribbon. It is tight. He pulls harder. The ribbon breaks.

They hurry to open the box. They lift the lid. Inside, they see many books. They are colorful and shiny. They have pictures of animals, cars, and stars.

Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that they could ride in. They liked to polish the car every day to make it shiny and clean.

One day, they decided to explore the underground tunnel near their house. They put on their helmets and flashlights and drove their car into the dark hole. They saw many rocks and bugs and roots, but they also saw something shiny. It was a gold coin!

"Wow, look at this!" Tom said, picking up the coin. "It's so pretty and sparkly!"

"Let me see!" Lily said, reaching for the coin. "I want to hold it too!"

"No, it's mine!" Tom said, pulling the coin away. "I found it first!"

"That's not fair!" Lily said, trying to grab the coin. "We should share it!"

They started to fight over the coin, pulling and pushing and shouting. They were so busy fighting that they did not notice the car rolling away. The car went down a slope and crashed into a wall. The car was broken and dirty.

Tom and Lily stopped fighting and looked at their car. They felt sad and sorry. They had lost their favorite toy because they were greedy and rude.

They walked back to the tunnel entrance, carrying the coin. They saw their mom waiting for them. She looked worried and angry.

"Where have you been?" she asked. "And what happened to your car?"

Tom and Lily told her what happened. They said they were sorry and gave her the coin.

Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you're safe, but you should not have gone to the underground tunnel without permission. And you should not have fought over the coin. It's just a thing. It's not worth losing your car or your sister or brother. You should be polite and generous and kind to each other. That's what makes you happy and rich."

Tom and Lily nodded and said, "You're right, Mom. We're sorry. We love you and we love each other. Can we fix our car?"

Mom smiled and said, "Yes, we can. But first, you need to polish it and make it shiny and clean again."

Tom and Lily agreed and went to polish their car. They learned their lesson and never fought over things again. They played with their car and shared their toys and had fun. They were happy and rich in their hearts.
Tommy loves to draw animals. He has many crayons and papers. He likes to make his animals look different and fun. He is very creative.

One day, he draws a panda. He gives the panda red spots and green stripes. He thinks the panda looks cool. He shows his drawing to his mom.

"Look, mom, I made a panda!" he says.

Mom smiles and hugs him. "That's a very nice panda, Tommy. You are very creative. But do you know what real pandas look like?" she asks.

Tommy shakes his head. He has never seen a real panda.

Mom takes him to the library. She shows him a book with pictures of pandas. They are black and white and fluffy. They eat bamboo and play in the forest.

"Wow, they are so cute!" Tommy says. He likes the real pandas too.

Mom tells him that pandas are very special animals. They need a lot of care and love. They are endangered, which means there are not many of them left.

"That's sad," Tommy says. He wants to help the pandas.

Mom tells him that he can help by learning more about them and telling others. She also tells him that he can donate some of his allowance to a panda charity. They will use the money to protect the pandas and their habitat.

Tommy thinks for a moment. He likes his allowance. He can buy more crayons and papers with it. But he also likes the pandas. He wants them to be happy and safe.

He decides to accept mom's idea. He gives some of his allowance to the panda charity. He feels good about it.

He also keeps his drawing of the panda. He thinks it is still cool. He tells mom that he can be creative and care about the real pandas at the same time.

Mom agrees. She is proud of him. She tells him that he is a very good and smart boy. She gives him a big kiss. Tommy smiles. He loves his mom and his panda.
Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the farm. One day, Lily sees a new animal in the farm. It is a mule. A mule is like a horse, but with long ears and a loud voice.

Lily runs to Tom and says, "Tom, Tom, come and see! There is a mule in the farm! Do you want to play with it?"

Tom nods and follows Lily. They go to the mule and say hello. The mule looks at them and says, "Hee-haw, hee-haw!"

Lily and Tom laugh. They think the mule is funny. They ask the mule, "What is your name?"

The mule says, "My name is Max. I am new here. I came from another farm. I am lonely. I have no friends."

Lily and Tom feel sad for Max. They say, "We are your friends, Max. We like you. Do you want to play with us?"

Max smiles and says, "Yes, I want to play with you. Thank you for being nice to me. You are good friends."

One day, they saw a new bike in the park. It was shiny and red. It had a bell and a basket. It looked very fun.

"Wow, look at that bike!" Lily said. "It is so pretty. I want to try it."

"Me too," Sam said. "Let's go and ask."

They ran to the bike. A boy was sitting on it. He had a sour face. He did not look happy.

"Hello," Lily said. "Can we try your bike? It is very nice."

"No," the boy said. "It is my bike. Go away."

"But we just want to try it for a little bit," Sam said. "We will be careful."

"No, no, no," the boy said. "It is mine. You cannot touch it."

He rang the bell loudly. It made a loud noise. Lily and Sam did not like the noise. It hurt their ears.

They felt sad. They wanted to try the new bike. It looked so exciting. But the boy was mean. He did not want to share.

"Are you ready?" Mom asked.

"Yes, Mom!" Lily and Tom said.

They put their bags in the car and got in. Mom drove to Grandma and Grandpa's house. It was a long way. Lily and Tom looked out the window and saw trees, cows, and birds.

"Look, Tom, a fierce lion!" Lily said, pointing to a big yellow sign.

"That's not a lion, Lily, that's a sign!" Tom said.

"But it looks like a lion, Tom, see the mane and the teeth?" Lily said.

"No, Lily, it's a sign, it says 'Zoo'!" Tom said.

They argued for a while, until Mom said, "Stop, kids, we're here!"

They saw Grandma and Grandpa waiting for them at the door. They jumped out of the car and ran to hug them.

"Hello, Lily and Tom, we're so glad to see you!" Grandma and Grandpa said.

"We're glad to see you too!" Lily and Tom said.

"Mom, can we go inside the fence?" Jen asks. She wants to pet the horse.

"Sure, honey, but you have to be careful. The horse might be scared of you. And you have to ask the rancher first. He has the key to unlock the gate." Jen's mom says. She looks for the rancher, who is wearing a hat and boots.

"Hello, sir, can we see your horse?" Jen's mom says to the rancher. She smiles and holds Jen's hand.

"Hello, ma'am, sure, you can see my horse. His name is Star. He is very friendly, but he is also very fast. He likes to run and jump. He is a modern horse, not like the old ones." The rancher says. He takes out a key from his pocket and unlocks the gate.

"Thank you, sir!" Jen and Tom say. They follow the rancher inside the fence. They see Star up close. He is bigger than they thought. He snorts and shakes his head.

"Hello, Star, we are Jen and Tom. We want to be your friends. Can we pet you?" Jen says. She reaches out her hand slowly and gently.

Star looks at Jen and Tom. He smells their hands. He feels their kindness. He nods and lets them pet him. He nuzzles their hair and licks their faces.

Mom hears them and comes to the room. She is not happy. She says, "Stop fighting, Sara and Tom. You have to share the computer. You can watch the cartoon together or take turns. If you keep fighting, I will turn off the computer."

Sara and Tom do not listen to Mom. They still demand the computer. They say, "No, I want it. Give it to me." Mom gets angry. She says, "That's it. I warned you. I will turn off the computer now." She takes the computer and puts it away.

Sara and Tom are sad. They cry and say, "We are sorry, Mom. We want the computer back. Please, Mom." Mom says, "No, you have to learn to share and be nice. You can have the computer back tomorrow. Now go and play with your toys and books."

Sara and Tom go to their room. They are bored and lonely. They look at each other. They say, "We are sorry, Sara. We are sorry, Tom. We were mean. We want to be friends." They hug and smile.

Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys in their room. One day, they found a razor in the bathroom. It was shiny and sharp. They wanted to try it.

"Look, Tom, I have a razor. I can cut things with it," Sam said.

"Can I see it?" Tom asked.

"Sure, here you go. But be careful, it can hurt you," Sam said.

Tom took the razor and looked at it. He saw his face in it. He thought it was funny. He smiled and made faces.

"Hey, Sam, look at me. I'm a clown," Tom said.

Sam looked at Tom and laughed. He thought Tom was silly. He wanted to join him.

"Me too, me too. Give me the razor, Tom. I want to be a clown too," Sam said.

Tom did not want to give the razor to Sam. He liked it too much. He wanted to keep it.

"No, Sam, it's mine. Go away," Tom said.

Sam got angry. He wanted the razor. He tried to grab it from Tom.

"Give it to me, Tom. It's not fair. You have to share," Sam said.

Tom and Sam fought over the razor. They pulled and pushed and yelled. They did not hear their mom coming.

"Boys, what are you doing? Stop it right now," their mom said.

She saw the razor in their hands. She was scared. She ran to them and tried to take it away.

But it was too late. The razor slipped and cut Tom's throat. Blood came out. Tom fell to the floor. He did not move. He did not make any sound.

Sam and their mom screamed. They were sad and scared. They did not know what to do.

The razor was not a toy. It was a bad thing. It hurt Tom. It hurt Sam. It hurt their mom.

They wished they never found it. They wished they never played with it. They wished they never fought over it.

They wished they could say sorry to Tom. They wished they could hug him and kiss him. They wished they could welcome him back.

But they could not. Tom was gone. He was not a clown. He was not sweet. He was not alive.
Lila and Tom were playing in the park with their ball. They had fun running, kicking and throwing the ball. But then the sky became dark and loud. Rain started to fall and wet them. They were cold and scared.

They looked for a place to hide from the rain. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They ran to the tree and sat under it. The leaves made a shelter for them. They felt a little better.

Lila had a bottle of water in her backpack. She took it out and gave it to Tom. "Here, drink some water. It will make you warm and happy." Tom drank some water and smiled. He gave the bottle back to Lila. She drank some water too. They felt more comfortable.

They hugged each other and waited for the rain to stop. They hoped their mom and dad would come soon. They were brave and strong. They knew they would be okay.
Sara and Ben were twins who liked to joke a lot. They lived in a big city with their mom and dad, who worked hard to give them everything they needed. Sometimes, they took a taxi to go to school or to visit their grandparents.

One day, they saw a shiny yellow taxi parked outside their building. They thought it would be funny to pretend it was theirs. They opened the door and climbed inside. They put on the sunglasses and hats they found in the back seat and pretended to be wealthy.

"Hello, driver, take us to the park, please," Sara said in a bossy voice.

"Yes, madam, right away," Ben said in a funny accent.

They laughed and joked as they played with the radio and the buttons. They did not see the real driver coming back from the store.

"Hey, what are you doing in my taxi?" the driver shouted. He was angry and scared. He thought they were trying to steal his taxi.

Sara and Ben were shocked and scared too. They realized they had made a big mistake. They quickly got out of the taxi and apologized to the driver.

"We're sorry, sir, we were just joking. We didn't mean to hurt you or your taxi," Sara said.

"Yeah, we're sorry, sir, we were just playing. We didn't know you were gone," Ben said.

The driver calmed down and looked at them. He saw they were just kids who did not know better. He decided to forgive them and teach them a lesson.

"It's okay, kids, I accept your apology. But you should know that joking is not always funny. Sometimes, it can be rude or dangerous. You should respect other people's things and feelings. And you should not pretend to be something you are not. Being wealthy is not important. Being honest and kind is," the driver said.

Sara and Ben nodded and thanked the driver. They learned their lesson and never joked like that again. They went back to their mom and dad, who hugged them and loved them. They were happy and grateful for what they had.
Lily and Tom were playing with their cars in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Lily had a red car and Tom had a blue car. They were having fun.

But then Tom saw a huge balloon on the table. It was shiny and green and had gas inside. Tom wanted to play with the balloon. He left his car and ran to the table. He grabbed the balloon and smiled.

"Look, Lily, I have a balloon!" he said. "It is big and pretty!"

Lily was not happy. She wanted the balloon too. She left her car and ran to the table. She tried to take the balloon from Tom. But Tom did not want to share. He held the balloon tight and said, "No, it is mine!"

They started to fight over the balloon. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not listen to their mom, who told them to stop and be nice. They were very naughty.

Then Lily had a bad idea. She decided to pinch the balloon. She thought that would make Tom let go. She pinched the balloon hard with her fingers. But she did not know what would happen next.

The balloon popped with a loud bang. The gas came out and made a funny sound. The balloon was gone. Tom and Lily were shocked and scared. They dropped the pieces of the balloon and covered their ears. They started to cry.

Their mom came to see what was wrong. She saw the mess and the tears. She was angry and sad. She said, "What did you do? You broke the balloon! It was a gift from your grandma! She wanted you to enjoy it together! You were selfish and mean! You hurt the balloon and each other! You are in big trouble!"

Tom and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They wished they had shared the balloon and played nicely. They learned a hard lesson. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We are sorry, grandma. We are sorry, balloon. We will not do it again."

The moral of the story is: Do not be greedy and rude. Share and care. Do not pinch things that can pop. You might lose them and make a lot of noise.
Sara and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the sandbox at the park. One day, they decided to create a tunnel in the sand. They used their hands and a plastic shovel to dig and dig. They thought their tunnel was adorable.

But then, a big boy came to the sandbox. He was mean and rude. He saw Sara and Tom's tunnel and he wanted to destroy it. He kicked the sand and stomped on the tunnel. He laughed and said, "Your tunnel is stupid and ugly!"

Sara and Tom were very sad and angry. They tried to stop the big boy, but he was too strong and fast. He pushed them away and kept ruining their tunnel. He did not care about their feelings or their work.

Soon, the tunnel was gone. There was only a big mess of sand. Sara and Tom cried and hugged each other. They wished the big boy would go away and leave them alone. They did not want to play in the sandbox anymore. They had no fun that day.
Tim liked to whistle. He whistled all the time. He whistled when he woke up, when he ate, when he played, and when he went to bed. He whistled so much that his mom and dad and sister and brother got tired of it. They asked him to stop whistling, but he did not listen. He thought whistling was fun and cool.

One day, Tim went to the park with his cap. He whistled as he walked, as he swung, as he slid, and as he climbed. He whistled so loud that the other kids and the birds and the dogs got annoyed. They asked him to stop whistling, but he did not listen. He thought whistling was fun and cool.

Then, Tim saw a weird thing. It was a big, round, green thing with eyes and teeth and legs. It was a frog. A very big frog. The frog looked at Tim and said, "Ribbit, ribbit, I like your cap. Can I have it?" Tim was scared. He did not want to give his cap to the frog. He liked his cap. He said, "No, no, this is my cap. Go away!" But the frog did not go away. The frog said, "Ribbit, ribbit, I like your cap. Can I have it?" And the frog jumped at Tim.

Tim ran away. He ran as fast as he could. He whistled as he ran. He whistled so loud that the frog heard him. The frog followed him. The frog said, "Ribbit, ribbit, I like your cap. Can I have it?" And the frog jumped at Tim again.

Tim ran and ran and ran. He ran back to his mom and dad and sister and brother. He whistled as he ran. He whistled so loud that his mom and dad and sister and brother heard him. They saw him and the frog. They were surprised. They said, "Tim, what is that? Why are you whistling?" Tim said, "Help, help, this is a frog. A very big frog. He wants my cap. He won't leave me alone!" His mom and dad and sister and brother helped him. They scared the frog away. They said, "Shoo, shoo, go back to your pond. Leave Tim and his cap alone!" The frog said, "Ribbit, ribbit, fine, fine, I'll go. But next time, don't whistle so much. It hurts my ears." And the frog hopped away.

Tim was happy. He hugged his mom and dad and sister and brother. He said, "Thank you, thank you, you saved me and my cap. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I whistled too much. I won't whistle so much anymore. I'll whistle only when it's nice and quiet." His mom and dad and sister and brother said, "That's good, Tim, that's good. We love you and your cap. But we don't love your whistling. Whistling is fun and cool, but not all the time. Sometimes, you have to be quiet and listen. Listen to us, listen to the other kids, listen to the birds, listen to the dogs, listen to the frogs. They have something to say, too. And they don't like it when you whistle so much. So, whistle only when it's nice and quiet. And be careful of weird things. They might want your cap." Tim said, "OK, OK, I understand. I'll whistle only when it's nice and quiet. And I'll be careful of weird things. They might want my cap." And he smiled.

The end.
Tom and Anna were going on a journey with their mom and dad. They packed their bags and got in the car. Tom was excited to see the zoo and the park. Anna was happy to play with her doll and her book.

"Are we there yet?" Tom asked after a while.

"Not yet, sweetie. We have to drive for a long time," mom said.

Tom sighed. He was bored and frustrated. He wanted to see the animals and the slides. He looked out the window and saw only trees and cars.

"Can we play a game?" he asked.

"Sure, what game do you want to play?" dad said.

"I spy with my little eye something that is green," Tom said.

"Is it a tree?" Anna guessed.

"No, it is not a tree," Tom said.

"Is it a car?" mom guessed.

"No, it is not a car," Tom said.

"Is it a frog?" dad guessed.

"No, it is not a frog," Tom said.

"What is it then?" Anna asked.

Tom smiled. He had a tricky idea.

"It is something that I did not mention yet," he said.

"That is not fair, Tom. You have to mention something that we can see," Anna said.

"But I did not say that I have to mention something that we can see. I just said something that is green," Tom said.

Anna was frustrated. She did not like Tom's game. She thought it was silly and mean.

"Tom, that is not how you play I spy. You have to give us a chance to guess. You are not being nice," she said.

"Sorry, Anna. I was just trying to have fun. Do you want to try again?" Tom said.

Anna nodded. She wanted to play with Tom, but she wanted him to be fair.

"Okay, I spy with my little eye something that is pink," she said.

"Is it your doll?" Tom guessed.

"Yes, it is my doll. You are right, Tom," Anna said.

Tom was happy. He liked Anna's game. He thought it was easy and fun.

"Can I have a turn?" he asked.

"Sure, Tom. You can have a turn," Anna said.

They played I spy until they reached their destination. They forgot about their frustration and enjoyed their journey. They were glad to be together.
Lily and Tom like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They race them on the floor and make loud noises.

One day, Lily has a new car. It is pink and shiny and has a big bow on it. Lily is very happy with her new car. She shows it to Tom and says, "Look at my new car! It is so pretty and fast!"

Tom looks at Lily's car and feels a little sad. His car is old and blue and has a scratch on it. He thinks his car is slow and ugly. He says, "Your car is nice, but my car is better. It is strong and smart!"

Lily and Tom decide to have a race. They line up their cars at the start and count to three. Then they push their cars as hard as they can. Lily's car zooms ahead and reaches the finish line first. Lily cheers and says, "I win! I win! My car is the best!"

Tom's car is far behind. It moves slowly and stops before the finish line. Tom feels angry and sad. He says, "No fair! Your car is too fast! My car is broken!"

Lily sees that Tom is upset. She does not want to make him feel bad. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. Your car is not broken. It is just slow. Maybe you can improve it. You can make it faster and prettier. Do you want to try?"

Tom thinks for a moment. He likes the idea of improving his car. He says, "Okay, Lily. How can I improve my car?"

Lily and Tom go to their toy box and look for things to improve their cars. They find some stickers, some paint, some wheels, and some glue. They work together and have fun. They make their cars look new and different. They give them names and stories.

When they are done, they admire their cars. Lily's car is still pink and shiny, but it has some stars and flowers on it. She calls it Sparkle. Tom's car is still blue and old, but it has some stripes and flames on it. He calls it Blaze.

They decide to have another race. They line up their cars at the start and count to three. Then they push their cars as hard as they can. Lily's car and Tom's car are both fast and smooth. They reach the finish line at the same time. Lily and Tom smile and say, "We tie! We tie! Our cars are both great!"

They hug each other and their cars. They are happy and proud. They say, "We improved our cars! We are good friends!"
Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They saw an old man sitting on a bench. He had sunglasses on his face and a hat on his head. He looked sad and lonely.

"Let's go say hello to him," Mia said. "Maybe he wants to talk to us."

Ben was not sure. He thought the old man might be grumpy or mean. He shrugged his shoulders and followed Mia.

"Hello, sir," Mia said with a smile. "What is your name?"

The old man looked at them with surprise. He took off his sunglasses and smiled back. His eyes were kind and blue.

"My name is Jack," he said. "And who are you?"

"I'm Mia and this is Ben. We are playing in the park. Do you like the park?"

"I do," Jack said. "I used to come here a lot when I was young. I had many friends and we had fun. But now they are all gone and I have no one to talk to."

"That's sad," Mia said. "We can be your friends. We like to talk and play. Do you want to play with us?"

Jack nodded. He felt happy and warm. He put his sunglasses and hat back on and stood up.

"Thank you, Mia and Ben," he said. "You are very nice and sweet. I would love to play with you. What do you want to play?"

Mia and Ben looked at each other and smiled. They had a new friend. They took Jack's hands and ran to the swings. They laughed and swung and talked. They had a lot of fun. The old man felt young again.
Tom and Ben were playing with their toys. They liked to pretend they were warriors and fight with their spears. Tom had a red spear and Ben had a blue spear. They made loud noises and ran around the room.

"Tom, I have an idea!" Ben said. "Let's add more spears to our game. We can use the sticks from the yard and make them into spears. Then we can have more fun!"

Tom liked Ben's idea. He nodded and said, "Yes, let's do that! I will get the sticks and you get the tape. We can make the best spears ever!"

They ran outside and found some sticks. They brought them back to the room and used the tape to make them look like spears. They were very proud of their work. They had four new spears, two for each of them.

"Look at our spears, Tom! They are so cool!" Ben said. "Let's try them out. I will be the blue team and you will be the red team. We can fight and see who wins!"

They picked up their spears and started to play. They threw their spears at each other and dodged them. They laughed and shouted. They had a lot of fun.

But then something bad happened. Tom threw his spear at Ben, but Ben did not see it. The spear hit Ben in the eye. Ben screamed and fell to the floor. He held his eye and cried. Blood came out of his eye.

Tom was scared and confused. He did not mean to hurt Ben. He ran to Ben and said, "Ben, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Are you okay? Please don't cry!"

But Ben did not answer. He only cried and cried. He could not see with his eye. He was in a lot of pain.

Tom did not know what to do. He wished he never added more spears to their game. He wished he never played with spears at all. He wished he could make Ben happy again.

But he could not. He had made a big mistake. He had hurt his friend. He felt very bad and sad. He cried too. He wished he could go back in time and change everything. But he could not. It was too late.
Lily and Ben were going to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They were very excited to see the animals. They packed their bags with snacks, water, hats and sunscreen. Mom said they were very organized.

At the zoo, they had to wait in a long line to get their tickets. Lily and Ben were getting bored and hungry. They asked Mom and Dad if they could eat their snacks now.

"Not yet, sweeties. We have to get our tickets first. Then we can find a nice spot to have a picnic," Mom said.

"Look, there's a big fountain over there. Can we go and play in the water?" Ben asked.

"No, Ben. The water is not for playing. It's for the birds and the fish. And you don't want to get wet and cold, do you?" Dad said.

"But I'm hot and thirsty," Ben said.

"Don't worry, Ben. We'll get some water soon. And look, the line is moving faster now. We're almost there," Mom said.

They finally got their tickets and entered the zoo. They saw many different animals, like lions, monkeys, elephants and penguins. They learned their names and sounds and what they liked to eat. They also had a picnic under a big tree and shared their snacks with some friendly squirrels.

After a while, they came to a sign that said "Petting Zoo". Lily and Ben were curious and wanted to go inside. Mom and Dad agreed and followed them.

Inside, they saw some animals that they could touch and feed, like goats, sheep, rabbits and chickens. Lily and Ben were very gentle and careful with the animals. They gave them some carrots and lettuce and stroked their fur and feathers.

They also saw a big sink with some soap and towels. A lady who worked at the zoo was there. She smiled and said, "Hello, kids. Do you like the animals?"

"Yes, we do. They are very soft and cute," Lily said.

"That's good. But you know what? After you touch the animals, you have to wash your hands. Do you know why?" the lady asked.

"Because they are dirty?" Ben guessed.

"Well, not exactly. They are not dirty, but they have some germs that can make you sick. So you have to wash your hands with soap and water to get rid of the germs. Do you want to try?" the lady asked.

Lily and Ben nodded and followed the lady to the sink. They rubbed their hands with soap and rinsed them with water. Then they dried them with the towels.

"Good job, kids. You are very smart and clean. Now you can go and see more animals. Have fun!" the lady said.

"Thank you, lady. Bye-bye!" Lily and Ben said.

They waved to the lady and ran to Mom and Dad. They were happy and ready to explore more of the zoo.
Mira was restless. She did not want to sleep. She wanted to play with her toys and her cat. But Mama said it was night time and she had to go to bed.

"Mira, please lie down and close your eyes. You need to rest. Tomorrow you can play again," Mama said.

"But Mama, I'm not sleepy. I want to see the moon and the stars. Can I look out the window?" Mira asked.

Mama sighed. She knew Mira loved the sky. She took her hand and walked with her to the window. They saw the bright moon and the twinkling stars. Mama pointed to some of them and told Mira their names.

"Good night, Mira. Sweet dreams," Mama said.

"Good night, Mama. Thank you for my life," Mira said.

And so, even though not much has changed on the outside, the toy is now happy on the inside. And it is finally happy to know it can always count on its friend.
