Michael the Marvelous, King of the land,
Son of the merciful Robert the Grand
Was enjoying the night that he turned thirty-two
As the people arrived for the party he threw
The princes of Rya and stewards of Gome
Were guests in the castle, his majesty’s home
The cake from the baker was seven feet high
Which quite put to [...]

Raymond Mayweather tuned up his ship.
He checked every latch, and he fixed every drip.
It was time for his voyage to deep outer space.
As always, he hoped to find some unknown place.
Raymond’s ship hurtled through the Earth’s atmosphere into outer space. He flew past all of the other planets he had visited. He took the [...]

He traveled around the world in search of new lands, new animals, and new relics to discover. And in every place he visited, Nicholas found a special gift to bring back to his son [...]

Corinne was sitting at the kitchen table on her sixth birthday when her parents started to bring her the presents. The first gift she opened was a doll that she thought looked funny. The next gift was a dress that she would only wear if her mother made her. The last [...]

I once saw a frog,
hopping around.
I followed it down to the little frog town.
It was built in a log
by a frog crew of frogs
I saw the frog mayor.
She wore a large hat.
It was silver.
And gold.
Can you believe that?
The frog school of frogs
Was also inside.
And the bus driver gave all the young frogs a ride.
The Frog [...]

When the earth was younger, the sloth was the fastest animal alive. The sloth ran everywhere. He was so fast that if something was done quickly, you would say it was done as swift as a sloth.
So jealous of his speed were the other animals that they constantly challenged him to races. No one was [...]

Before time was time, there was a Great Hill.
And on the Great Hill there lived the Yolks.
The Yolks spent their entire lives climbing the Great Hill, trying to reach the top.
Some Yolks climbed fast.
Some Yolks climbed slowly.
One Yolk in particular was a very slow climber. He was different than the rest of the Yolks.
When he [...]

Azul is a city with silver rooftops
Silver front doors, silver handles, and mops.
The streets and the streams are all silver as well.
In the square rings the sound of the silver town bell.
There is only one road that will lead to Azul.
To find where it is, you must travel [...]

Pudgy-O was born with a big belly. In the center of his belly was a belly button – not a belly button like you or I have, but an actual button! Mudgy and Budgy were his mom and dad, and when they saw his button, they thought, he is special.
When Pudgy-O was little, he learned [...]

Mr. McMay is like nothing you’ve seen.
He’s small as a penguin with hair a bright green.
He doesn’t like dogs or other such beasts,
And he’s constantly stealing from picnic feasts.
You’ll know that it’s him from his lemon-lime eyes,
Unless he is wearing his sunglass disguise.
Of course, you could tell by his rose petal pants.
They’re made in the [...]
