Read together
A clever factory worker named Billy decided to explore the world. He found a ticket for a journey on a magic train that could play tricks on people. Billy thought it would be fun to play a trick on the poor and make them rich, so he got on the train and started his journey. He went from town to town playing tricks on the poor and making them rich. Everywhere he went, the people cheered and thanked him for his kindness. Finally, Billy came back to the factory where he worked, and everyone was amazed at how rich he had become. They asked him how he did it, and Billy just smiled and said, "I took a journey on a magic train and played a few tricks along the way." From that day on, Billy became known as the cleverest man in the world, and everyone wanted to be like him.
