Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hello friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kid
short Stories. Today. Stories brought to was by Oliver and Violet.
Hey guys, they sent me an awesome idea for a story,
and you can't too. Just head of a kidshort stories
dot com, send me your idea and maybe you will
turn it into an awesome adventure. You can also find
that link down below in the show notes. There's a

(00:24):
bunch of great links in there, like how you can
turn on the Alexis skill for Kit short Stories, access
all the activities and more. Are you guys ready for
today's adventure? Me too, Let's go. It was a rainy
day outside as Oliver and Violet were drawing some really

(00:48):
cool pictures on some paper. They were using some very
amazingly colored pencils that had every single color in the
rainbow and more. Oliver, could you pass me that yellow
over there, asked Violet. Yep, here you go, said Oliver.
Has he handed her the yellow pencil. He was working

(01:11):
on a beautiful rainforest picture. He was inspired by a
cartoon that was playing on in the background. You see
on those rainy days. It's fun to do art and
maybe you can even like watch a show and then
turn that show into something real on a piece of
paper or build something like it, and that's what they

(01:33):
love to do. The show they were watching was some
kind of animal adventure in a rainforest, and so they
were bringing that creation over onto a piece of paper.
It's pretty amazing when you can use your own imagination
and create something that's never before existed ever. Yeah, creating
something and drawing something that means you've made that thing

(01:54):
for the very first time. It's never ever existed before. Well.
As Oliver and Violet were working on their creations, all
of a sudden something crazy began to happen. Oo did
you feel that, Violet, said Oliver. Yes, was did you
just shake the table or did the whole ground shake?

(02:14):
Asked Violet. It wasn't me, but it definitely felt like
the ground was shaking, said Oliver. And all of a
sudden it started again. Who The ground was shaking like
there was a giant earthquake. The pencils were rattling on
the table as both Oliver and Violet took cover underneath

(02:38):
the table. They both had their eyes closed because they
were worried about getting poked in the eye by a
falling pencil, and all of a sudden it stopped. The
shaking was over, and they heard a sound. Whoo, Who

(03:02):
did what was that? As Oliver opened his eyes and
began to stand up, Holy smokes, where did all this
dirt come from? How did our house get full of
the Violet? Open your eyes? Oh, I don't want to
Is there a giant mess in the house? She asked? Uh,

(03:24):
I don't think we're in our house anymore, said Oliver.
Violet stood up and opened her eyes, and she couldn't
believe it. When in the world we're in some kind
of very colorful rainforest. Where are we? Oliver shouted Violet.
It wasn't very long before they realized where they were.

(03:48):
Somehow that cartoon on TV had sucked them inside of
the cartoon. As they looked down at their hands, they
were not their normal looking hands. They were cartoon fingers.
Would that be the craziest thing ever? Like? What if

(04:09):
you got sucked into a real cartoon and you had
cartoon fingers? That would be pretty wild. As they stood
there looking at each other, they couldn't believe it. Violet,
I think we're somehow in the cartoon. How did that happen?
I don't know, said Oliver. I think it had something

(04:31):
to do with all that shaking. It's like the cartoon
came alive, and I don't know. How do we get
out of here? Screamed Violet. All right, there's gotta be
there's gotta be a way out of here, said Oliver.
They started looking around and walking around. They were no
longer in their family room and their house. They had

(04:53):
been transported inside of the cartoon that was on their TV. Woo.
Up in the trees, they could see monkeys jumping and
swinging around. Those are so cute, said Violet. Ah, cartoon
monkeys are way cuter in real life. Is this real life?

(05:15):
She thought to herself. I guess it's kind of real life,
said Oliver. It's like real cartoon life. As they kept
walking and going deeper and deeper into the rainforest, they
came to a very strange looking pond. It was very small,
but it had a weird glow to it like the water.

(05:39):
The water looked almost like a mirror that was moving
and made of water. Wow, look at that, Violet. Oliver
knelt down to the edge of the pond and looked
inside the water. WHOA look at that? I think that's
our house. Look, Oliver was right in the water. It

(06:01):
looked like some kind of transportation, a water thing that
It's like Their house in their living room, was on
the other side of that water. So do you think
we came in here through there? Said Violet. It kind
of looks that way, said Oliver. Then all of a

(06:23):
sudden they heard a terrifying sound, bum Burham, Burham. That
was the sound of a ginormous, very angry looking rhinoceros.
Oliver and Violet looked at each other. I think we
bought to get out of here. Oliver was the first

(06:45):
to jump into the pond wholl splash. Violet was unsure,
but that rhinoceros looked very angry. And what's getting closer.
This is the strangest day ever, said Violet one two
three bah as she plugged her nose and jumped into
this strange looking pond, just in the nick of time

(07:08):
before the rhinoceros was there. Woos splash. Oliver and Violet
were instantly transported back to their house outside of cartoon Land.
As they landed, splashing on their couch pillows, they looked
at each other. Their eyes were both very big. First

(07:30):
thing they did. They checked their fingers. Did they still
have cartoon fingers? Nope, normal normal fingers, people fingers with fingernails. Oh,
what in the world just happened, said Violet. I don't
have a clue, said Oliver. They looked around the room
and it was like nothing had happened. Their parents were

(07:53):
in the other room in the kitchen, I think making lunch.
Nobody is ever gonna believe what has happened, said Violet. Yeah,
but at least it happened with you, said Oliver. We
should probably be careful next time when we're drawing those
amazing drawings, because I think that had something to do
with us being sucked into the cartoon world. Well, that

(08:17):
is quite the adventure that Oliver and Violet have just
gone on, and I think they're onto something. I think
there's some kind of magic art that they just tapped
into that sent them into that magical cartoon world. Well.
I don't know about you, but I think I want
to start drawing some more. Maybe, just maybe I'll have

(08:37):
some cartoon fingers. The end. Great job, you listened all
the way to the end, and you know what it is.
It's time for Kurd, shouted out. I want to say
to Eloise from Kansas, Cora, Gabriel Samini from South Florida,

(09:01):
Harrison Jane from British Columbia, Alexander from Vancouver, Mason and
Marvin from Minneapolis, Minnesota, Teddy from Pennsylvania, Atlie Is from California,
and Athan from Texas. I'm so glad that you're all
in the Kid Short Stories family and on the spy team.
We could not stop Doctor Stinkybreath and his crew without you,

(09:23):
my friends. Will you have a super duper day and
I'll see you next time. Bye,
