The yellow kite

Once there was a boy who was happily flying his yellow kite in the park. Unfortunately, his kite got stuck into a tree. He was very sad. A kind officer, who happened to be passing by, brought a ladder and got the kite for the boy. The boy was very happy to have his kite back.

 

 

The boy who got dirty

A boy was upset because his t-shirt got dirty. He decided to wash it in the washing machine. He waited patiently for the washing machine to finish. After some time, it was ready. The boy was very happy to wear the clean t-shirt.
