Lulu and tall socks

One day Lulu was getting ready for bed and she was putting away her clothes when she saw four different socks on the floor. So she decided to see if she could stand a little taller by putting on more than one sock on each foot.
She put two socks on each foot and tried to stand taller to reach up on a shelf to get a book, but she was still too short. Then she got another two socks and put those on her feet, so now there were three socks on each foot.
Again she tried to stand taller to reach up on a shelf to get a book, but she still could reach high enough. She tried a final time with two more socks, and now she had four socks on each foot, and she tried to reach up on a shelf to get a book, but she was still too short to get it.
And she couldn’t fit any more socks onto her feet because they were bunching up too big, so she took off all the socks, and went to get a small chair. She put it by the shelf, and she was able to stand safely on it to reach onto the shelf.
Lulu picked the book that she wanted to read before going to bed. When she got down, she and her mommy read the book, and Lulu quietly went to sleep, slowly slowly slowly.

A Tunnel Digging Machine

One day Tiger was going for a walk. While Tiger was walking he passed by Zebra's place. Tiger wanted to say hello to Zebra and he knocked on her door. But there was no answer. He left a note on the door saying that he had stopped by. Then Tiger left and continued on his walk. After a while, Zebra came home and saw the note Tiger had put on her door.  Zebra used her phone to call Tiger and he answered. She said she had just seen his note. Tiger told her he had stopped by earlier but she wasn't home. Zebra told Tiger that she had been working on a project. Tiger asked what it was, and Zebra said she would show him. She asked Tiger to come meet her at her place. Tiger said he could be there soon.  After a short while, Tiger came over and Zebra let him in.

Magic Stamps

One day Lulu wanted to write a letter to her friend Jimmy. She took out her pen and notebook, and turned to a blank page. She wrote a short letter saying that she enjoys being his friend. Then Lulu tore out that page and folded it. She got an envelope and put the folded paper in the envelope. She closed the envelope and wrote Jimmy's address on the front of the envelope. But now she needed a stamp.  Lulu went to look for a postage stamp in a drawer. But all the stamps at home were finished. And Lulu decided to go to the post office to buy new stamps. Lulu got ready and put on her shoes and her backpack. She put the envelope in her backpack and went outside. Lulu walked to the post office. When she arrived there, she saw a sign on the door.

She told the post office worker that she w...

Tiger And Zebra On A Boat

One day Tiger was working on a boat. The ship needed a new anchor. The anchor holds the boat in one place when it is out in the middle of the water, far away from land. The anchor is a heavy metal hook, which is connected to a long rope that can be lowered all the way down to the bottom of the sea.  While the boat was tied to the dock on land, Tiger removed the old broken anchor. Then Tiger put a new anchor onto the boat. Now the boat was ready to go out on the water again. Zebra was walking by and saw Tiger on the boat. Zebra came over and asked Tiger what he was doing.  Tiger said he was preparing to take the boat out on the water. Zebra asked if she could come along. Tiger that said would be great. Zebra got onto the boat, and Tiger untied the boat from the dock. He turned on the motor, and they started moving out on the water. Zebra asked where they were going.  Tiger said that there was an island that he wanted to explore. Zebra said that sounded exciting and was hap...
