Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and fuzzy. "Look, a caterpillar!" Lily said. "Can we keep it?" Ben shrugged. He did not know. He liked the caterpillar, but he also liked the leaf. "Maybe we can ask Mom," he said. They ran to the house and found Mom in the kitchen. They showed her the caterpillar. "Mom, can we keep it?" Lily asked. "It is so cute!" Mom smiled. She knew a lot about caterpillars. "Well, you can keep it for a while, but you have to be very careful," she said. "Caterpillars need to eat a lot of leaves, and they also need a safe place to make a cocoon. Do you know what a cocoon is?" Lily and Ben shook their heads. They did not know. "A cocoon is a special case that the caterpillar makes around itself. Inside the cocoon, the caterpillar changes into a butterfly. It is a very amazing process, but it takes some time. When the caterpillar is ready, it comes out of the cocoon as a beautiful butterfly, and then it flies away." Lily and Ben gasped. They could not believe it. "Wow, that is so cool!" Ben said. "Can we see it happen?" "Maybe, if you are lucky and patient," Mom said. "But you have to remember that the caterpillar is not a toy. It is a living creature that has its own needs and feelings. You have to respect it and let it go when it is time." Lily and Ben nodded. They understood. They were glad that Mom let them keep the caterpillar, but they also wanted it to be happy and free. They took the caterpillar back to the garden and found a big jar. They put some leaves and a stick in the jar, and then they gently placed the caterpillar inside. They made some holes in the lid and closed the jar. They put the jar on the windowsill and watched the caterpillar every day. They saw it eat and grow and make a cocoon. They waited and wondered what it would look like as a butterfly. One morning, they saw the cocoon crack and a colorful wing poke out. They ran to the jar and saw the butterfly emerge. It was yellow and black and had spots on its wings. It was beautiful. They opened the lid and let the butterfly out. It fluttered around them and landed on Lily's nose. She giggled. "Bye, bye, caterpillar," she said. "Thank you for being our friend." The butterfly flew away, but Lily and Ben never forgot it. They learned a lot from the caterpillar, and they were happy that they helped it become a butterfly.

Once upon a time there were two friends, Sam and Mary. They were walking down the road when they saw a big, messy tree blocking their path. "Oh no! What do we do?" said Mary. Sam thought for a moment. "Maybe we can move it. We can both pull it together and try to yield it from the road." Mary agreed and they both grabbed the tree. They pulled as hard as they could but the tree wouldn't move. Sam thought for a moment. Then he got an idea. He ran to the nearby pond and found a big stick. He put it in front of the tree and told Mary to push. She did and the tree started to move. Soon the tree was cleared from the road. The friends cheered and hugged each other with joy. They were happy they had found a way to yield the tree so they could continue their journey.

But it was only a thing, and things can break. You still have each other, and many other toys. And maybe the cat didn't mean to break it, he was just curious. Can you forgive him?" she asked. Lila and Ben sniffed and wiped their eyes. They looked at the cat, who peeked out from the bush and meowed softly. They thought for a moment, and then nodded. "Okay, mommy, we forgive him. But he has to be more careful next time. And maybe he can share some of our toys with us," they said. Mommy smiled and kissed them. She picked up the pieces of the ball and put them in a bag.
