Once upon a time, there was a bear named Bruin who had a sore paw. He went to the store to buy some medicine to make it feel better. But when he got there, he realized he forgot his wallet at home.
He thought for a moment and remembered he had a core from an apple in his pocket. He traded the core for the medicine and felt much more comfortable.
Next, he had to do a chore, which was to clean up his messy cave. While cleaning, he tore his favorite shirt and felt sad.
But then he remembered that he scored a new shirt at the store and quickly went back to get it. When he put on the new shirt, he felt so much better and wore it proudly all day.
The end.

Reflections

2. What did Bruin trade for the medicine?
3. How did Bruin feel when he tore his shirt?
4. How did Bruin feel when he put on his new shirt?
5. What is the moral of the story?
