Hey, friends, mister Jim here, welcome back to Kids Short Stories.

(00:26):
or do with me. I can't wait to see them. Well, friends,
are you ready for today's amazing adventure? I am, let's go.
It was bedtime for Ria the Unicorn. She was looking
through her bookshelf of books looking for a story that

(00:49):
she could read herself before she fell asleep.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Hmmm, us Broun story that I've never read. Our first
it's our Magic Chrome. Oh wow, that sounds like a
frank sterle.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
As Rhea climbed into bed and opened up this new
book that she had never read before, she found it
absolutely amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
And then I was then let her learn a kron
touch the Sun with us horn let where it's florid
with magical powers that come wow, turn ons, hurdled, smirks.
Let's just sperk roar ah wrah. I wonder if I
touched the sun with my horn. If I the magical

(01:38):
power was just like the churn and the stirrel hard lore, I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Hard to aslip, I think the Lord. I'm gonna Lord tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Riha had just read this amazing adventure story about a
unicorn that flew up so high that it touched the
sun with its horn, and it was then filled with
magical powers that it could turn into any animal. Wow,
that sounds like an amazing story. Rio was so excited.
It did take a long time for her to fell asleep,

(02:09):
but finally sh she was off into unicorn dreamland.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Beep beeps, a her res fronel the marlong how turned world.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
I'm gonna go touch the fun.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
Riha ate a quick breakfast and uh grabbed all of
her things that she thought she might need on an
adventure trip to the sun. Hmmm, what do you think
you would want to bring if you had an adventure
trip to the sun. Probably some sunglasses and some sunblock
that would probably be helpful. After she had everything ready

(02:49):
for this big, big, flying adventure, she walked out the
door and flew up towards the clouds. She lived in
a magical mountain range was a beautiful place Her house
was built into the mountain, almost kind of like a cave,
but it was surrounded by beautiful trees and bushes and flowers,

(03:10):
and it was a magical place. And as she flew
up towards the clouds, she just dreamed about how amazing
it would be to have those kind of magical powers
that she could turn into any kind of animal that
she ever dreamed.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Let's run spotles first. Hm hmmultle plunk, flawmonger, viable as
are unable, altiable, child, terrible, heloss.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Wow. What what kind of animal would you turn into
if you had magical powers that you could turn into
any animal? Would you think about a pink flamingo or
a hippopotamus like Rhea the unicorn? Or hmmm? Which animal
you want to turn into? I think I would want
to either be something really really big or something that

(04:07):
could fly. Mm yeah, between those two that would be awesome.
As she flew higher and higher past many many clouds,
it got colder and colder. Yeah. You see, if you
go really high up in the sky, it actually does
get colder. But she was getting closer and closer to

(04:28):
the sun. Huh, this is this is alarm trip.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
The bruck. There was a lot closer and fast start
ups up there.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
Hul that was still little tougher brothers, and one of
those proper clouds are over there.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Rio was right, she needed a break flying to the sun.
That's a long trip. But taking a break on a
nice puffy cloud. Oh that feels good.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Well.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
As Rhea Unicorn sat down on one of those very
puffy clouds, she reached into her bag and pulled out
a snack, a unicorn snack.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Do you know what.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Unicorns like to eat? Rainbows? Yeah, they have little little
rainbow pieces that they fit into their pockets that they
can snack on.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Hur Rah, our floor better, our ruttle al rauh, let's starsself?
If that sun has magical parrels, that's.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
Ria the unicorn jumped off of that puffy cloud. She
knew that she had to keep on pressing harder and harder,
because she was not going to give up on this
adventure to the sun. After what seemed like an eternity,
she finally reached it. The sun was very close and
it was definitely time to put on those sunglasses that

(05:50):
she'd brought with her.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Oh wow, klan of them open my eybars? Who this
is bread ups there.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
As Rhea flew closer and closer, she reached out her
horn and it touched the sun.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Our silver cars nothing Roma, hold the ruck, the not
and magical powers with that idels burned my arm, not Charlotte.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Rhea flew a little bit aways from the sun that
she wanted to give it a try. Her world, Las.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Let's travel with the hipperpotamus.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
First, let's I can turn on the rest of the.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
One two three. Just like that, Rhea the unicorn turned
into a ginormous hippopotamus that rocked town of time.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
Ruh ho time flew.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
And just like that, Oh, oh, dear, Rhea turned into
a hippopotamus, but forgot that she was actually still up,
way up high in the sky. And oh dear, hippopotamuses
cannot fly, look out below.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Oh, how gonna turn on the something worse?

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Shouted Rhea.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Run around? How gonna honold rings?

Speaker 3 (07:21):

Speaker 1 (07:25):
One two three? Poof, Rhea turned into a penguin.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
But oh no, rao raul room, I'm flapping, but I'm
not flowing.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Oh no, She chose an animal that does have wings,
but it can't fly. She's running out of time. As
she was falling, she passed by all these clouds and
oh dear, she's about a crash on the bottom.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Lord ruh, I don't know the I know the fly
word fliers, I fly, Oh.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
I just little turn back to the rollula curl because.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
I had to fly poof just like that right before
she crashed onto the ground below. Ria turned back into
a unicorn and was able to fly to catch herself
from falling.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
Whore, That'll be a lot more powerful before I turn
into another animal, hurre IRA's amusons such an ourmalson advanure.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Well, I think our friend Ria the Unicorn, it's gonna
be a lot more careful before she turns into an animal,
because you definitely got to know hippos should not be
hanging out in the clouds up in the sky. Well, friends,
this may be the end of the story, but it's
just the beginning of Ria the Unicorn's amazing adventures that
lie ahead the end. Great job, you listened all the

(09:02):
way to the end, and you know what time it is.
It's time Fortred shout out. I want to say hey
to Eliza and Stella from British Columbia Ian and Harry
from Vancouver, Declan from Alberta, Judah and Genevieve also from
Alberta and Edmonton, Benjamin from Canada, and Caleb from Australia.
