Hey, friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kids

Well I want you to think of two friends right
now that you can share this story with and have
your parents text them the link to this story and
you guys can listen to it together. Well, friends, I

(00:29):
have a story here from Charlie. This is gonna be
amazingly epic. Let's go. It was another rainy day on
the island of Madagascar, as Charlie the Chameleon was walking

(00:49):
around not knowing what to do. Hey, letdy, I want
to play a game of hatead with me?

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Had on ours or the best of Holland's Actual change.
Charler and mother saw I don't know what clung how
in super Floor because URA's run Harboro.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Paul tag, well that it does sound like a fat idea.
You're liked a thousand times faster than me and you
always witted tag. What are we gonna do? Letdie? So
ready day, another rady day and Madagascar and I don't
know what to do. Charlie and Lenny were in quite

(01:39):
the predicament. They were looking for something to do, but
I didn't have any good ideas yet. Have you ever
been with friends and you're not exactly sure what to
do or you can't agree on what to do? Well,
Sometimes the best thing to do when those situations is
to come up with something new to do, and that's

(02:01):
exactly what Lenny and Charlie are about to do.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Hold Charlot about all on the roller over there?

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Yes, yes I do. It's I've never been over there
because there's an ocean that between us that I don't
I don't know how to swim, said Charlie the Chameleon.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
I heard run town for some some ole friends. The
mother raft a raft out of trolls on bruncils on
wood and by florid on the water.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
A little think about that.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
I think your brain is full of some wild imaginations
that could not be possibly true. But it is there
any day, and I don't know what else to do.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Our startup dotting the broncos our.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Right bat Lenny the Lemur he was very excited about
building this raft. His friend Charlie the Chameleon. You know,
I don't think he knew what a raft was, so
he was a little uh hesitant to get excited about
this because he didn't think it would actually happen. But
if you know anything about lemurs, they're very jumpy and

(03:13):
very fast, and Lenny got to work very fast through
sough through.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
That's gonna build the rest craft in the wroround world.
We're gonna go across the Blue Arson hard the road
that I exploring islands UNDERNNA front bird treasure that is
buried treasure.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
You keep talking about things that I've never heard of
in my entire life before, said Charlie.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
So I don't know what.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Barrel treasure road harlem merle I's on that world for
the front barrel treasure ros.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
But it's gonna be.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
The best I love, said Lenny. Lenny started working on
this raft, and Charlie the chameleon Moore just sat on
this branch and watched Lenny work. Chameleons aren't very good
at building things because their fingers are just kind of
built differently. It only took Lenny about two hours to

(04:07):
build this raft. And you know, remember these these two
critters are pretty small, so they don't need a very
large raft. This is not as big of a raft
as you or I might need. Let it fit Lenny
the Lemur and Charlie the Chameleon. Are you sure about this? Letty?
I don't. I don't think this is gonna float out
of the water. This thing is so heavy. There's no way.

(04:30):
Oh no, tartle.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
I promise, just a little stuff there and I'm gonna
prush it in the water and he'll stand a flower.
Just watch.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Lenny was very excited to show Charlie that this raft
would actually float. Charlie the Chamellion held on very tight
onto this raft with all of his hands, and his
tail was even wrapped around one of the sticks on
the raft. So the Lenny took a running start and
push the raft right into the water. Eh, careful of that. Ay,

(05:03):
that's a little too fast. Reconna Wait a second, wait,
not thinking has this possible? Had you done this?

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Letnay?

Speaker 1 (05:12):
This is awesome?

Speaker 2 (05:16):
The treasure island.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Red Lenny threw on a hat that he had made
for himself and his friend Charlie. These hats were pretty cool.
They were made out of very large leaves, well, not
very large. They had small heads. But these hats were
perfect for the sailing buddies as they sailed across the
Blue Ocean. They almost felt like pirates. Thankfully, the wind

(05:43):
blew them straight across it very quickly, and it wasn't
long before they crashed onto this new deserted island.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Alright, Charlotte, we're probably gonna want to hurt out of something.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Across Their raft came in very fast onto the beach,
crashing into the sand, sending Lenny the Lemur and Charlie
the Chameleon flying in world with a face full of sand.
They both lifted their heads out of the beach. Letty, Okay,

(06:21):
I'm had some little desi eyes there spitting. Did we
make it? Are we alive? Asked Charlie.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Less burthlor harper cap a little that actually roped, How
I'm not a raft on outside across his oar son
Old up.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Charley, said Lenny as he jumped around, spinning in circles.
Even he was so happy and excited to have made
it all the way to this new island. The rest
of the day, Lenny the Lemur and Charlie the Chameleon
spent building their new home on their new island, and

(06:59):
they would even soon find a big X on the beach,
an X that would lead them to a most amazing treasure.
But that is a story for another time. So just remember,
if you have a rainy day and you're not sure
what to do with your friends, do something new, maybe
even make a raft and sail across the ocean to

(07:22):
a new treasure island. The end. Great job, you listened
all the way to the end, and you know what
time it is. It's time for good shout out, so
I would say, had a Jasper from California, Ava from

(07:44):
New Zealand, Sully from Maryland, Aliosha from Oregon, River from Indiana,
Cooper and Charlie from British Columbia, Dexter from the UK,
Sessame from Brooklyn, and Kean from Washington. I'm so glad
that you're all in the Kit Short Stories family and
down the spy team. We could not stop Doctor Stinky
Breath and his crew without you, my friends. Will you

(08:04):
have a super duper day and I will see you
on our next adventure. Bye.
