00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: show notes. Now let's dive into today's story. Levi and

13
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 2: Ivy were enjoying a wonderful week at sleepaway camp with

14
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: some friends, swimming in nature activities during the day, s'mores

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 2: and campfires at night. They made lots of great friends

16
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: the year before who they were so happy to see

17
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 2: again that summer.

18
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: And one thing the campers liked most.

19
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: Of all that the counselors weren't always aware of, was sneaking.

20
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: Candy into their cabins when it was time for bed.

21
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: All that sugar right before bed helped to keep the

22
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 2: campers up extra late to make more memories, tell more jokes,

23
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: and have more fun. The camp had a candy vending

24
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: machine but the campers were only allowed to use it

25
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: once or twice during the week and had strict instructions

26
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 2: not to overdo it. So that's why some of the

27
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 2: campers would bring a few extra sweet treats along with

28
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: them from home. So on the first night of camp,

29
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 2: when everyone was supposed to be getting ready for bed,

30
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: Levia Ivy and a few of their camp friends decided

31
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: to see what tasty sweet treats they had managed to

32
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: pack away in their bags for the week. They volunteered

33
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 2: to help clean up the mess hall that night so

34
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: they could all be together and have a little after

35
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: dinner snack before bed. Each camper showed up in the

36
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: mess hall after running back to their cabins, holding a

37
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 2: bag in their hands filled with some type of chocolate,

38
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 2: gummy or candy snack. Okay, the last counselor just went

39
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: into their cabin, said Harry. He was looking out for

40
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: the campers. The other campers had been hurrying around throwing

41
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 2: away paper plates and napkins and sweeping up crumbs from

42
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: last night's welcome dinner. Once they were all done, they

43
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 2: each took their sweet treat bag and dumped them out

44
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: one by one on the mess hall tables.

45
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:03,919
Speaker 1: It was amazing.

46
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: Every candy you could imagine sat in a huge pile

47
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: before them.

48
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: They just stared at the sweet.

49
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 2: Mountain of sugar for a few seconds, not saying a

50
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:18,119
Speaker 2: single word. Until this ball is even better than last year,

51
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: whispered Levi. What do you say we each just have

52
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 2: one piece tonight, so we have lots left for the

53
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: rest of the week, suggested Harry. Sure, I think we

54
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: could have just one piece, said Ivy, sounding a bit unsure.

55
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: But I don't know if we should.

56
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: She looked at Levi with a worried look on her face.

57
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 2: As much as Levi and Ivy loved candy, they weren't sure,

58
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: after what had happened to them last summer, that they

59
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: should eat any more. Harry and the other campers didn't

60
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: need to think twice and each grabbed their favorite piece

61
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: of candy.

62
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: I can't make any promises that I can stop at

63
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: one piece, giggled Harry as he chomped down on a

64
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: chocolate bar. But I'll try.

65
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: Casey grabbed a package of gummy worms, and Troy scooped

66
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 2: up some gumballs. As they enjoyed their treats. They couldn't

67
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: help but notice that Levi and Ivy still hadn't made

68
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 2: their choice. What's wrong, Levi and Ivy asked Troy. So

69
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 2: much great stuff. You can't make a decision. I understand too,

70
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 2: But you need to pick something soon, so we could

71
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 2: head back to our bunks, whispered Casey. The counselors will

72
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 2: be checking on us in a little while. It's not that,

73
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: Levi began, as he looked at Ivy. Yeah, it's not

74
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: that we can't make a decision, she said. It's that

75
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 2: we don't know if we should make a decision. Sometimes

76
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: too much candy is just too much, you know. Levi

77
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 2: and Ivy's friends stopped chewing and stared at their friends.

78
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: They had no idea what Ivy meant. There's no such

79
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: thing as too much candy, said Harry. I get DIBs

80
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 2: on Levi's candy if he's not eating any.

81
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: This week, said Casey quickly.

82
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: Oh good idea, I want Ivy's. I get Ivy's, said

83
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: Troy quickly. If that's okay with you, Ivy. That's when

84
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: Levi and Ivy tod took a seat at the tables.

85
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 2: Come on, you have to tell us why you don't

86
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: want any candy, said Harry as he Troy, and Casey

87
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: followed Levi and Ivy to the table. Do you remember

88
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: last year when on the last night of camp, Levi

89
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: and I got caught eating candy, began Ivy. Well before

90
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 2: we left that next morning, one of the counselors told

91
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 2: us a story about a camper that used to go

92
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,679
Speaker 2: here years and years ago. Yeah, he told us about

93
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: this girl who ate a ton of candy one night

94
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 2: and got transported to this place called Sweet Wonderland, continued Levi.

95
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 2: That sounds awesome, said Harry, interrupting LEVI. I know I'd

96
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: like to go there, laughed Casey. A whole wonderland may

97
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 2: completely of sweets. What could be better? Well, that's just it,

98
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: said Ivy. It wasn't such a great place. The counselor

99
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: told us. It was ruled by a mean queen and

100
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 2: a bunch of candy guards that did anything.

101
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 1: She asked. We didn't have time to.

102
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: Tell all of you about it before we we'd left,

103
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 2: but I think it's important that we tell you now,

104
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: said Levi. So sit down and listen to the tale

105
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: of Alice in Sweet Wonderland. Levi and Ivy gathered their

106
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: friends close and told them the story as they had

107
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 2: been told last summer, a story that sounded sweet, but

108
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 2: it had a sour side too. So it all started

109
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: when Alice arrived at camp in the summer of nineteen

110
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 2: ninety seven. Oh, this story takes place in the nineteen hundreds.

111
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: Said Harry, I know, added Ivy. It's practically one hundred

112
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: years ago.

113
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: Alice loved sweets, but was also a Roof follower. She

114
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 2: knew that she could only get one or two sweet

115
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 2: treats from the vendee machine for the whole week, and

116
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: was always worried that the treats she wanted would be

117
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 2: sold out when her time came to buy something. The

118
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: vending machines were in the same place today that they

119
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 2: were in the nineteen nineties, right there in the corner

120
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: of the mess hall. Alice would often walk by the

121
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 2: venue machine over and over during breakfast, lunch, and dinner,

122
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 2: just checking to make sure that her favorite chocolate bar

123
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: was still there.

124
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: It was filled with.

125
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 2: Caramel and dotted with crunchy cookie pieces on the outside.

126
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: They called it a dream bar.

127
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 2: Alice would sometimes stare at the row of dream bars

128
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 2: in the vending machine for so long she would be

129
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 2: the last person left in the mess hall, meaning all

130
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 2: of the other campers had moved on to their next

131
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 2: activity or off to the campfire area after dinner, and

132
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 2: Alice would be alone in the mess hall, dreaming of

133
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: her dream bar.

134
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what happened one very strange and peculiar night.

135
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 2: As Alice snapped back into reality, she noticed that all

136
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 2: her friends had gone and she was all alone. She

137
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 2: hurried back to her table, grabbed her tray, and was

138
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 2: heading to the garbage to throw out her plate and napkin.

139
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 2: But while looking at the vending machine, she missed.

140
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: The blob of putting on the floor.

141
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,799
Speaker 2: She slipped on it and banged right into the vende machine.

142
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: This caused the whole machine to rattle and a bunch

143
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: of candy to fall out, one of them being a

144
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: dream bar camper's dream right, Well not for Alice. She

145
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 2: was very torn. She didn't want to break the rules,

146
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 2: but she wanted that dream bar so badly. Her hunger

147
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: for chocolate, caramel and crunchy cookie pieces got the better

148
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 2: of her, and she ate the dream bar, and once

149
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 2: she started, she couldn't stop. She ate another candy bar,

150
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 2: and then another and another.

151
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: Before she knew.

152
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 2: As she had eaten all the candy that fell out

153
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 2: of the machine, she felt terrible.

154
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: In more ways than one.

155
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 2: I broke the rules, I ate all this candy I

156
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: didn't pay for, and now I have a bad stomach ache,

157
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 2: whispered Alice to herself.

158
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: What am I gonna do now? One thing?

159
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: She knew for sure that she didn't want to make

160
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 2: the situation worse. She made up her mind that she

161
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: was going to tell her counselor. She started to walk

162
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 2: towards the door that led out of the mess hall

163
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: when she started to feel dizzy. It felt as if

164
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 2: the room was spinning, and then the lights began to flicker.

165
00:07:59,200 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: What is going on?

166
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: Alice shouted, but as she opened her mouth, she couldn't

167
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 2: hear anything at all. She closed her eyes and hoped

168
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 2: for the best, but when she opened them, she got

169
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 2: the surprise of a lifetime.

170
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: Where am i? Alice said? As she stood up from

171
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: the ground.

172
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 2: At first she thought her hands were covered in dirt

173
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 2: and when she went to brush them off, but the

174
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: closer she looked, she noticed that it.

175
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: Was cookie crumbs. What is going on? Alice thought?

176
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: As she took a closer look at everything in its

177
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 2: new world. That's when she saw the grass wasn't really grass,

178
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 2: but rather green licorice. The trees weren't covered in bark,

179
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 2: but instead.

180
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: Covered in chocolate.

181
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 2: The breeze that rustled the paper candy leaves above wasn't

182
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 2: just cool and refreshing, but it smelt like fresh baked cookies.

183
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 2: At that moment, Alice realized her stomach didn't hurt anymore.

184
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 2: As the breeze blew, it swayed fond flowers of every

185
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: color you could imagine.

186
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: Tiny candy bumblebees.

187
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 2: Collected sugar crystals from each one as they buzzed around

188
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 2: Alice's head. Gum ball rocks covered the path Alice walked

189
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: down as it curved around the shore of a caramel river,

190
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: And just as Alice thought nothing could be better, she

191
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: saw it. A dream bar tree, her favorite candy of

192
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 2: all times, sat on tiny candy cane branches, just.

193
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: Ready to be enjoyed.

194
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: Alice walked up slowly, still not totally sure what was happening.

195
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: If this is a.

196
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: Dream, it's the best dream I've ever had, said Alice

197
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 2: to herself. I hope I don't wake up anytime soon,

198
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 2: but as soon as I do, I'll tell my counselor

199
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 2: what happened in the vending machine. Alice reached down and

200
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 2: pulled up a handful of licorice grass, picked a fonded flower,

201
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: and even dipped one of the candy cane branches in

202
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: the Carmel.

203
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: River to give it a quick taste.

204
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 2: She spun around from place to place in this sweet,

205
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 2: magical world, humming a song to herself. She thought no

206
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: one else was around until she stopped spinning and found

207
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 2: herself face to face with two kids about her age.

208
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: Now this is where it gets weird, said Levi. The

209
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 2: counselor who told us this story, said. The two kids

210
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 2: she met there were named Levi and Ivy. Weird right,

211
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 2: said Ivy. Harry, Casey and Troy were so focused on

212
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 2: the story that they could only nod their heads in agreement.

213
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: But what happened next, asked Casey.

214
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: Alice was surprised at first, but also quite relieved to

215
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 2: see some other kids. After the shock of finding some

216
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 2: friends in this wonderful place, she quickly asked their names

217
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 2: and introduced herself.

218
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: Hi, Alice said Levi's.

219
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 2: Emotion for her to join him in Ivy behind a

220
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 2: tall tree dripping in sweet honey and covered in mars

221
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: and pan mushrooms.

222
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: We're so happy we found you.

223
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: Said Ivy, with a less than convincing smile on her face.

224
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,439
Speaker 2: She looked a bit scared, and her voice trembled a bit.

225
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 2: What do you mean you're happy that you found me?

226
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: Is there someone else here looking for me? Alice chuckled,

227
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 2: but she saw right away that Levi and Ivy weren't laughing.

228
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 2: This place may look amazing, began Levi, but it's not

229
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 2: all sugar and sweets. We all need to get out

230
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 2: of here right away. Alice's smile turning to a frown

231
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 2: as Ivy kept talking. This place is called Sweet Wonderland.

232
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: It's ruled by a very mean.

233
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: Queen, said Ivy. She has a bunch of guards that

234
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: follow her around and do anything she asks.

235
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: She has a glass ball she uses to see into

236
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: the real world.

237
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 2: When she finds someone that really, really really likes candy,

238
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 2: she makes it so that they find this place through

239
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 2: a kind of dream. Levi went on, like she did

240
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 2: this to Ivy and I a few days ago, and

241
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: and like she did to you right now. She thinks

242
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: we'll be happy here because she doesn't know that there

243
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 2: are more important things in the world besides candy, said Ivy.

244
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 2: Alice was still for a bit trying to take in

245
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: everything that Levi and Ivy had just told her. After

246
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 2: giving it a bit of thought, she asked, so this

247
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 2: is all a dream, then what do we have to

248
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 2: be worried about. We'll just have to wake up in

249
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: a bit and be right back to normal.

250
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: No, shouted Levi.

251
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but you don't understand. It's not like that.

252
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 2: You don't just wake up. We were told by some

253
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 2: Gingerbrend men they fear the Queen too, that we have

254
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: to find the magic door that leads back to the

255
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 2: real world to get out of here. You need to

256
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 2: follow us. We're trying to find our way out tonight.

257
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: Alice didn't know what was real or what was true anymore.

258
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,119
Speaker 2: You know what, I think, I'll just enjoy sweet Wonderland

259
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 2: a little bit more and then I'll come along with you,

260
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: said Alice. I mean, how many more times am I

261
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: going to be in a world made completely of sweets?

262
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 2: Alice was letting her hungry sweet tooth make the decision

263
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: for her when she should have been using her brain.

264
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 2: Levi and Ivy were trying to help her, and she

265
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 2: couldn't see past all the chocolate, gummies and sugar. As

266
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: Alice walked away from the tree, Levi and Ivy called

267
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 2: out to her one last time, but it.

268
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: Was too late.

269
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: As Alice turned around to tell them it would be okay,

270
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 2: the Queen of Sweet Wonderland made her appearance, grab her,

271
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: shouted the queen to her guards. They were wearing sugar

272
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: sashes and they held giant candy canes. They've surrounded Alice

273
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: and blocked each way she tried to run. Alice called

274
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: out to Levine Ivy, who took cover under the fondent

275
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 2: leaves of the tree they had all been standing under.

276
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 2: They wanted to make sure the Queen didn't see them,

277
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 2: but they never broke eye contact with Alice to let

278
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 2: her know she wasn't alone.

279
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: Levi made a motion with.

280
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: His hands as if to tell her, we'll get you out.

281
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 2: Alice looked hopeful, but still very nervous. As the Queen

282
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 2: of Sweet Wonderland approached her. She was draped in a

283
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 2: glistening robe, and her rock candy tiara sparkled in the

284
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: bits of sunlight that streaked through the fondent leaves above.

285
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 2: She stomped along the licorice grass, kicking gumball rocks here

286
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 2: and there before reaching Alice. Welcome, Alice, so happy you

287
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: can join us, said the queen. We think you'll be

288
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: very happy in Sweet Wonderland. Thank you for the invite.

289
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: Alice began to say sheepishly, I'll be leaving tonight. I

290
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 2: have to get back to camp. The Queen seemed to

291
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 2: laugh under her breath, as if to say, there's no

292
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 2: way that will happen. And as the Queen turned to

293
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 2: talk with her guards, Alice saw an opportunity to run,

294
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 2: and that's exactly what she did. She ran deep into

295
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 2: the woods of Sweet Wonderland and kept running until she

296
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 2: tripped over a rock candy branch that had fallen across

297
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 2: the path. When she opened her eyes, she found herself

298
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 2: face to face with no not Levi and Ivy, but

299
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: three gingerbread men. Alice looked nervous and scared, and the

300
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: gingerbread men were quick to set her mind at ease.

301
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 2: Don't worry, Alice. We're here to help you find the

302
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: magic door so you can get home.

303
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: Said one of the gingerbread men. We're trying to help

304
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy as well.

305
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 2: Alice was so happy to hear that, she stood and

306
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 2: gave the gingerbread men a big hug.

307
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: Thank you for your help.

308
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 2: She said, Let's find Levi and Ivy and get out

309
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 2: of here, but that was easier said than done. Join

310
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 2: us next time for the conclusion of Alice in Sweet Wonderland.

311
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: Did you learn a lesson from this story? Hey Solf,

312
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 1: what was it? And parents, do your kids have a

313
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: story idea?

00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 2: Leave a comment on our Apple podcast review page with
