John and his friend were walking to the store and his friend wanted to buy a colorful bouncy ball. However, he didn't have any money. So he asked John to steal the ball. John said, “NO! I don’t like to steal.” John told his friend, “You have to be honest. Don’t steal, don’t lie you must be honest.” You want people to trust you, don’t you?

One day there was a man named John and his little brother named Joe. They were walking in the park. John saw a water bottle on the ground, but did NOT stop to recycle it. He kept walking to the swing set with his little brother.
