00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: Hello, friends, welcome back to Kid Short Stories. If this

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: is your first time listening, my name is mister Jim,

3
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: and welcome to the family parents. My name, like I said,

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: is mister Jim, and it is my mission to produce

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: as much screenless entertainment and activities for your kids as

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: I can possibly manage. And so that's why we do

7
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: stories every single day, because these stories not only are fun,

8
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: but they also inspire imagination. Well, friends, are you guys

9
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 1: ready for today's imaginative adventure?

10
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 2: Me two, let's go.

11
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: Darren and Everett. We're spending the day at the beach.

12
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: They loved to go to the beach and do all

13
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: kinds of amazing imaginative adventures. When you go to the beach,

14
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: what do you like to play? It's pretty fun to

15
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: imagine there was by your hips off in the distance

16
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: and you have to hide or else they're gonna get you.

17
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: Or maybe there's a treasure at the beach you gotta

18
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: dig it up, or maybe there's a lost creature that

19
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: you must help get back into the water. Well, the

20
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: beach has endless opportunities for an amazing adventure, and that's

21
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: exactly what is about to happen. To Taryn and Everett.

22
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: It was a hot summer day. As the two of

23
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: them were splashing in the waves, they were imagining that

24
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 1: they were a team of explorers that were the first

25
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: ones to ever be on that beach, and they were

26
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: looking for some new creatures never before seen.

27
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: Everett, look at this over.

28
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: Here, Tharn said. He was pointing down at the sand,

29
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: and there were these little holes in the sand, and

30
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: as the water would flow over it, bubbles would come

31
00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: out from it, and Theren imagine what was inside? What

32
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: do you think is down deep in the sand?

33
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: Everett?

34
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: Hmm. Everett thought for a minute and said, well, there

35
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: must be creatures down there, maybe creatures that are.

36
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 2: Stuck in the sand. We gotta save them.

37
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: As they started digging in the sand, Everett paused and

38
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: saw something off in the distance. Farren, do you see

39
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: that thing in the water? Where is it a pirate ship?

40
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: Said Faryn, laughing, No, no, no, no, I'm serious. I'm

41
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: not I'm not uh, I'm not joking. I see something

42
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: really large floating in the water out there. As soon

43
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: as Everett changed his tone, Farn looked up and put

44
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: his hand over his eyes. It was a very sunny

45
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: day and so he had to oh, wait a second, Yeah,

46
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 1: I do see that, said farn Off. In the distance,

47
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: Everett had discovered something that was floating in the water.

48
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: It looked like a giant wooden box, like a big crate,

49
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: much better, bigger than them, And so they had no

50
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,119
Speaker 1: idea what on earth could be floating in the ocean

51
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: inside of that big wooden crate.

52
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 2: But as the waves.

53
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: Were crashing on the beach, those were the same waves

54
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: that were bringing this wooden box closer and closer to

55
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: Thearin and Everett. Everett go grab something to see if

56
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: we can open that thing. I think it's about to

57
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: land on shore. Everett ran over and grabbed one of

58
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: their shovels. As theren grabbed the box and was able

59
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 1: to push it to shore. It was way bigger than him.

60
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: It was a massive box. But as it was floating

61
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: in the water, you know heavy things, when they float

62
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: on water, they're a lot easier to push. But as

63
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: soon as it bumped into the sand on the beach,

64
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: there was no more budging. This ginormous woulden crate.

65
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 2: Here's a shovel.

66
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: Everett was holding it above his head like a victorious

67
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: adventurer who had discovered something. He passed the shovel to Tharon,

68
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: who used the edge of the shovel to wedge into

69
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: this part of the wooden crate. That it looked kind

70
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: of like a door, but it had a lock on it,

71
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: but maybe, just maybe he could pry it open. As

72
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: he started to try and open up that locked door,

73
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: they heard a sound inside hmm there and dropped the

74
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: shovel and jumped back.

75
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 2: Everett, did you hear that there's some kind of creature

76
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: in there?

77
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: And it was then that they realized that there was

78
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: some writing on the side of the box danger wild

79
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 1: animal inside.

80
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 2: There's an animal in there. He's stuck. He's probably almost drowning.

81
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: We gotta get him out.

82
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: Of there, said Everett. Okay, but what do you think's

83
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: in there? Guys, hold on a second, what do you

84
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: think is inside of that box? It's like I said,

85
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: it's way bigger than them. It's taller than them, longer

86
00:04:59,279 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: than them.

87
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 2: Why beater than them?

88
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: There must be a very ginormous creature in there. Barren

89
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: picked the shovel back up and wedged it into the

90
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: edge of the door and pushed with all of his might.

91
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't enough and so Everett came to and they

92
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: both pushed the shovel and finally popped the lock, cracked

93
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 1: off and flew into the sand. The door immediately swung open.

94
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: It was very rusty and very squeaky. But as the

95
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: door opened, the two brothers looked inside and couldn't believe it.

96
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: It's a ginormous butt and they were not joking. There

97
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: was a ginormous cray. I don't know how else to say.

98
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: This bottom a bottom of an animal. What is that thing?

99
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 1: Look at that tiny little tail, said Everett. Thearn and

100
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: Everett backed up, and so did the creature inside of

101
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: the box. As he stepped out, backing up almost like

102
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: a truck beep out from the box. They couldn't believe it.

103
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: It was a ginormous rhinoceros. Holy smokes, is that guy big?

104
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: Said thearren. Mm Oh, it's okay there, big guy, as

105
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: Everett was patting the side of the rhinoceros. It's gonna

106
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: be okay, Darren, What do we do? Asked Everett. I

107
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: don't know, but look at this. Inside there were a

108
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: whole bunch of papers, like maps, and a whole bunch

109
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 1: of stuff. They didn't understand but they could definitely tell

110
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: where this creature had come from.

111
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: Look at this, I think like.

112
00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: Some poachers stole this rhinoceros from its home. We've got

113
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,799
Speaker 1: to figure out a way to get it back, said Darren.

114
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: How in the world are we going to.

115
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: Get this thing back across the ocean to where it

116
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: came from. Everett didn't even take a second to think

117
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: of an awesome idea. Well, look at this. This crate

118
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: that the rhinoceros was in is a giant wooden crate.

119
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: I bet we could change this into some kind of

120
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: raft and then we could cruise across the ocean and

121
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: bring him back.

122
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:29,679
Speaker 2: To his home.

123
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: Everett was full of really good ideas, and this was

124
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: one of those. Wow, I love it, said Darren. Let's

125
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: get to work. The two brothers started modifying the crate

126
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: into more of a raft. So they took the roof

127
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: off and sealed up the sides, and there it was.

128
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: It was absolutely perfect. They could all fit in with

129
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: the rhinoceros, and they grabbed some delicious food for the rhinoceros,

130
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: which you really loved to eat, the grass that was

131
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: on the shore of the beach. They grabbed some water

132
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: bottles and off, they began their journey of rafting across

133
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: the ocean with a rhinoceros. Could you do that kind

134
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: of adventure? Would you be brave enough? Oh? I bet

135
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: you are.

136
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 2: Well.

137
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: These two brothers sailed across the ocean with their new friend,

138
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: mister rhino, and mister Rhino was so happy when he

139
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: could see his house, his home, not that far away.

140
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: After several hours of rafting across the ocean, they finally

141
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,599
Speaker 1: made it back to his home. He jumped off the

142
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: raft and huffed and puffed m and made a big

143
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: sound and he was clearly very happy.

144
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: Wow. Great job thereon. And Everett, you guys save the day.

145
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 2: You saved this rhino.

146
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: And we're turning him back to his home. This may

147
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: be the end of the story, but these two brothers

148
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: sure do love a great adventure, and I'm sure there's

149
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: another amazing adventure that lies ahead the end. Great job,

150
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: you listened all the way to the end, and.
