Once upon a time there was a little boy named Tomas. Tomas lived in a small village where all the children played together. However, Tomas always felt left out, as the other children made fun of him because he wore old clothes and his house was small and old.

One day, while playing in the park, Tomás met a boy named Samuel. Samuel was new in town and was also lonely. The two boys began to play together and realized that they had many things in common.

As time passed, Tomás and Samuel became best friends. One day, Samuel invited Tomas to his house and he discovered that Samuel's house was much bigger and nicer than his own.

Once upon a time there was a little boy named Juan. Juan was very generous and was always willing to share his toys and treats with his friends. One day, his mom gave him a coin to buy a piece of candy at the store. Juan was so excited to have his own money, but he didn't know how much it was worth.

As he was walking to the store, he found his friend Pedro, who was crying because he had lost his favorite toy. Juan, with his generous heart, offered his coin to Pedro so he could buy a new toy. Pedro was very grateful and the two boys went off together to buy a toy.

When they arrived at the store, Juan realized that the coin his mother had given him was not enough to buy a toy, it was only enough for one piece of candy. Juan felt sad and disappointed, but Pedro reminded him that he had done something very important by helping him and that was what really mattered.

From that day on, Juan learned the importance of money and how to use it wisely. He learned that money is valuable and should not be wasted, but he also learned that helping others is the most valuable thing of all.

The moral of this story is that money is important, but it is not the most important thing in life. The real value is in helping others and being generous with our resources.

Once upon a time there was a boy named Luis, who lived in a small village. Luis was very poor and lived in a wooden hut with his family. He often felt sad because he wanted to have what the rich children in the village had.

One day, while walking in the forest, he found a golden hut. The hut belonged to a rich boy named Alberto, who lived in a big mansion in the village. Luis was so excited to have found such a beautiful place, that he decided to go inside to explore.

Inside the hut, he found many wonderful things, such as toys, clothes and delicious food. But he also discovered that Alberto was lonely and sad, as he had no friends to play with. Luis realized that, despite having all the material things, Alberto was not happy.

The two children began to play together and realized that they had many things in common. Alberto was happy to have someone to share his toys with and Luis was happy to have a friend.

From that day on, Luis and Alberto became best friends and learned that wealth and poverty are not the most important things in life, what really matters is having friends and being happy.

Mateo built a small aquarium for the frog and fed it insects. He also made a small cast for its broken leg. The frog slowly began to heal and soon was able to hop again.

Mateo felt very happy to have helped the frog and realized that all living things deserve to be cared for and loved, regardless of their size or abilities. From that day on, Mateo became a great advocate for animals and was always looking for ways to help the weaker ones.

One day, while exploring the forest, Ana found an ancient book written by strong and brave women. As she read the stories, Ana realized that women can also be brave and strong, and that she too could be one of them.

From that day on, Ana began to study and learn more about female empowerment. She began to speak out confidently and make important decisions. Soon, the children in her village began to see her differently and to respect her more.

Ana became a leader in her village and helped other girls feel more confident and courageous.

One day, while exploring, he came across a herd of deer. The deer were very beautiful and elegant, but Quique realized that he could not communicate with them since he spoke a different language.

Despite this, Quique did not give up and decided to seek the help of his friend the parrot, who spoke several languages. With the parrot's help, Quique was able to talk to the deer and learn a lot about them and their life in the forest.
