Once upon a time there was a little boy who didn't know how to share.
This little boy's name was John. Everyday he would go to school and wait for
his favorite time of day Recess!
At recess he would always pick the best toys from the sandbox.
At first, the other children would try to play with him and share their toys, but soon
they found that he would take them and keep them for himself!
After a while the other children didn't want to play with John.
This made John very sad because he wanted to have friends to play with.
One day, when he was alone in the sandbox with only his toys, his teacher came to talk
to him. "John," she said, "why are you all by yourself?"
"The other kids won't play with me" John said. The teacher smiled and said "I think they
would play with you if you shared your toys." John thought for a minute and then said "Do
I have to?" "Yes" said the teacher.
So John got up and went over to a group of kids who were playing by the swings.
They stopped playing and looked at him. John looked at his favorite ball, and then
held it out to the other children. They took the ball and started playing catch
with John. Pretty soon everyone was smiling and laughing.
John was very happy that he shared his toys. He liked having friends to play with and share
his toys with. The End!
