Sharing My Apple

Ben is sitting on the soft green grass. In his hands is a big, round, and shiny red apple. - Oh! This apple is so pretty! Ben is ready to take a very big bite.

Suddenly, his friend Lily walks over and sits next to him. Lily looks at the apple and smiles: - Hello, Ben! Your apple looks so yummy! Ben holds his apple tight. He is thinking...

Mommy comes by and helps Ben. She cuts the apple into two equal halves. Ben holds out one half to Lily: - This is for you, Lily! Lily cheers: - Thank you, Ben! You are so kind!

They both sit together and eat the apple: *Crunch... crunch... crunch!* Eating with a friend makes the apple taste even sweeter. - This is yummy, Lily! The two friends laugh and play together in the warm sun.
