Adam and Eve had two boys, Cain and Abel. Cain grew food. Abel took care of sheep.
Both brothers gave gifts to God. Abel gave his very best. God was happy with Abel's gift.
Cain got jealous and very angry. He did something terrible and hurt his brother. God asked, "Where is Abel?" God wants us to love and care for each other.
