Rex was a young dinosaur who loved to play with his friends. He had a big boy roar that he liked to use to scare them, but he didn’t mean to hurt anyone.
One day, Rex’s friends started to avoid him. They feared his big boy roar and didn’t want to play with him anymore. Rex didn’t understand why they were afraid, and he felt lonely and sad.
Rex didn’t like feeling this way, so he started to think about why his friends were scared of him. He realized that his big boy roar was too loud and scary and needed to find a way to control it.
Rex started practicing using his indoor voice instead of his big boy roar. He also started taking deep breaths when he felt himself getting angry.

Rex felt proud of himself for learning to control his big boy roar. He realized that he didn’t need to be angry all the time and that he could have fun with his friends without scaring them.
The End.

The kobold is a small, grumpy-looking creature with shaggy brown fur and piercing green eyes. He wears a red and white striped apron over his patchwork trousers. His bakery is small and cozy, with a sign that reads “Kobold’s Cakes” hanging over the door.
Despite his surly demeanor, the kobold is an amazing baker. His cakes are light and fluffy, his pies are perfectly flaky, and his tarts are filled with the most delicious fruit. However, the other creatures in the village are put off by his gruff manner and thick Scottish accent, so they don’t visit his bakery very often.
The kobold spends most of his days alone in his bakery, muttering to himself as he mixes the ingredients for his latest creation. But when someone does come in to buy a cake or a pie, his face lights up with pride and he can’t help but smile a little.
