The stuck honey jar
Read the story first.
The stuck lidKit wanted honey on his toast, but the lid on the jar was stuck. He twisted it. He tried a cloth. It was still stuck. A small thought popped up: "Big cats never ask for help." But that thought was not true. Asking for help is brave and smart. Kit went to the garden and waited politely. "Excuse me, could you help me, please? The jar is stuck. I tried twisting it, and I tried a cloth." "Of course," said his grown-up, "and thank you for asking so nicely." They twisted the lid together. Pop! "Thank you!" said Kit.
