Dedication:To my parents for always reading to me when I was younger
It was a Wednesday afternoon, in a small town in Rabbitville and Stella the bunny was in a candy shop with her mom. Stella walked up and down the aisles, looking at all the delicious sweet treats.
Can I PLEASE have these jelly beans? Pretty pretty please with a cherry on top?!
Then, she saw it. Her very favorite type of candy ever. She scooped it up and raced through the aisles to her mom
No dear, I’m sorry. It will ruin your appetite for dinner
Stella dragged herself back to the aisle and put the jellybeans back. She quickly realized how badly she wanted the jellybeans.
Stashing the jelly beans quickly in her pocket, Stella quietly walked back over to the cash register.
As they were walking out of the candy store, Stella slowly ripped open the bag and ate a couple of cherry jelly beans. The jellybeans were SO good, but she knew she shouldn't have stolen. It was pouring outside so she accidentally dropped a few on the ground.
The next day at school Stella was playing at recess with her friends Poppy and Ava. Embarrassed, she broke the news to her friends. By this point, Stella was whispering,
“I stole,” she whispered.
They gasped. “What did you steal?” Ava asked.
“I stole jellybeans from a candy store,” Stella said, embarrassed.
“Oh my gosh. I wonder what will happen to you,” Poppy responded.
“I stole,” she whispered.
They gasped. “What did you steal?” Ava asked.
“I stole jellybeans from a candy store,” Stella said, embarrassed.
“Oh my gosh. I wonder what will happen to you,” Poppy responded.
