Hey guys, they 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: sent me an idea for a story, and you can 9 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: to just head of the Kids Short Stories dot Com. 10 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: Send me your idea and maybe we'll turn it into 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 1: an awesome adventure. Are you guys ready for today's story? 12 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: Me too. Let's go One day in a deep deep 13 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: rainforest lived Evan. Evan is the world's last try Sarah tops. 14 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: You see, most dinosaurs have disappeared over the years, right, yeah, 15 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: there's not many dinosaurs left, but Evan has somehow been 16 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: I think, one of the last dinosaurs. But he was 17 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: feeling very alone. Can you imagine being the last dinosaur? Oh? Man, 18 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: that would be pretty lonely. And that's how Evan woke 19 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 1: up this morning. Oho oh, another day, another day of 20 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: being the only dinosaur in the wide world. Huh, nobody 21 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: understands me. Try Saratops aren't really cool creatures. Do you 22 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: know how many horns Try saratops have. Yeah, they have three. 23 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: They have two big ones kind of on the on 24 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: the top of their head that go out, and then 25 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: one little horn kind of near their nose, and all 26 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: together they have three those horns. That's why they're called 27 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: try saratops. Yeah. Try that means three, So a three 28 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: horned dinosaur. It's a perfect name for Evan. As Evan 29 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: got out of bed, he stretched his legs and it 30 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: was very sad. Oh, I don't have any friends that 31 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: are like me. What am I ever gonna do? Oh? Hey, Heaven, 32 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: how are you doing today? It's a great day? Right? Oh? Hi? Sally? 33 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: That was Sally. Sally was a jumping lemur that lived 34 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: in Evan's neighborhood in the jungle. Well, I'm not doing 35 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: that great today. Um Oh, I'm just kind of sad 36 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 1: that there's no more Troy saratops anymore. There's no more 37 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: creatures that are like me with these three horns, and 38 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: I just feel kind of lonely today. Wait a second, 39 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: come to think of it, I think I've heard of 40 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: a legend, a legend of a creature with a horn 41 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: on its head. Maybe it's maybe it's another try saratops. Wait, 42 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: are you for real? Said Evan. You gotta tell me 43 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: where this where this creature is right now? Evan was 44 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: got really excited all of a sudden, and Sally the 45 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: Lemur started to think and think and think, Oh, well, huh, 46 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: I think I think it's up that mountain. Yeah, it's 47 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: totally out there. She pointed with her right hand up 48 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 1: to the tallest mountain in the area. That was Mount Rocky. 49 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: Mount Rocky was very rocky, you know, I think that's 50 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: a good name for a very rocky mountain, right. Mount 51 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: Rocky was a very tall mountain with all these big climps, 52 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: and it was really hard to climb up and who 53 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: in the world would live up there? Are you serious? 54 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: There's no way I can get up there, said Evan. Oh, 55 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: but I think there's a trail. Yes, there's a path. 56 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: You gotta try, Evan. Maybe maybe one of your family 57 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: members is up there, said Sally. Um, okay, I guess 58 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: I don't have anything else to do today. I guess 59 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: I'm becoming a mountain climber. Evans started hiking towards Mount 60 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: Rocky and it was a pretty short hike. But as 61 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: he entered the trail and looked up, WHOA a big mountain. 62 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: It was a big mountain, and it was gonna be 63 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: a long hike. And hopefully Sally has heard a legend 64 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: that's true. Sometimes legends are true and sometimes they're not true. 65 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: But that would be awesome if there was a creature, 66 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: maybe a try saratops up there. She had heard stories 67 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: of some creature with a horn on its head. And 68 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: I can't think of any other creatures other than try 69 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: saratops with horn on horns on their heads. Right, well, 70 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: Evan is gonna be in for a big surprise when 71 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: he gets up there. As Evan continued hiking up the trail, 72 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: this is this is older than I thought. He finally 73 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: rounded a corner he had made it. Wait a second, 74 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: I'm already to that toppened. Where's the where's the other 75 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: tri Sara tops? As he looked around, he realized that 76 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: there was nobody else on top of that mountain, and 77 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: he began to be very very sad. Oh never find 78 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: anybody just like me. Evan was very sad, and all 79 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: of a sudden he heard a voice, here's crying over 80 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: there are your tall ware? Doing so good? Who is that? 81 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: As Evan looked around back and forth all over the mountain, 82 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: he didn't see anyone, and then all of a sudden, however, 83 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: can can I hoppler? It was a unicorn? Dune dunue dong. 84 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: The legend was actually true. There was a creature with 85 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: a horn on his head, but it was not not 86 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 1: try Saratops. It was a unicorn how man, almost anaballat 87 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: s long. As Evan wiped off the tears off his face, 88 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:28,799 Speaker 1: he said, my name's Evan, and I've been looking for 89 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: a creature that I was told it looks like me, 90 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: but you're not a tri seratops. Nope, I'm gonna learn 91 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: the current bat just wrap rull Burt have horns on 92 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: her head. That's put a co oh. Yeah, I guess 93 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: I've never met another creature that has a horn on 94 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: their head like me. That's that's kind of cool. Yeah, Brom, 95 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:59,239 Speaker 1: I'm kind of looking for something to do. Kid oaks, 96 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: let's go. And that is the day that Evan. Unfortunately 97 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: he was not able to find another try Saratops, but 98 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: he made a new friend, a new friend that kind 99 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: of looked like him, but not exactly, and I think 100 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: they're going to be amazing new friends. Who would ever 101 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: imagined that a unicorn and a try saratops would become friends. 102 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: But I guess Evan and Annabella they were just meant 103 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: to be. They were meant to be good friends all 104 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: because Sally the Lemur sent Evan on a mystery adventure 105 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: with a very mystery ending. I never would have seen 106 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: this coming, but I think Evan has found the new 107 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: friend that he has been looking for his whole life. 108 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: The end, great job, you listened all the way to 109 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: the end, and you know what Domina is.
