1
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: Hello friends, it's mister Jim and welcome back to kid

2
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:12,039
Speaker 1: Short Stories. Today's story comes to us from Kaylin and Eleanna.

3
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: Hey guys, they sent me an awesome idea for a story,

4
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: and you can too. Just head over to kidshort stories

5
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 1: dot com. Send me your idea and maybe you we'll

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: turn it into an awesome adventure. Are you guys ready

7
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: for an adventure about a lost creature in their swimming pool?

8
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 1: What is gonna happen? Well, me too, let's go. Kaylin

9
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 1: and Ellianna had just woken up. It was the day

10
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: after there was a big hurricane that came nearby. Do

11
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: you know what a hurricane is or a typhoon? Yeah,

12
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 1: they're big storms that come over the ocean, and sometimes

13
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: they're pretty scary. But thankfully the one last it wasn't

14
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: that bad. It was more like a big thunderstorm. Well,

15
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: Kaylin and Eleanna were eager to look out the window

16
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 1: and see if there were branches down in their yard.

17
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 1: Whoa look at that one, said Kaylan? And that one

18
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: look over there. Ellianna had found a big branch that

19
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: had fallen off a tree and a bunch of stuff

20
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: that had blown into their yard from who knows where,

21
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: but I guess it was really windy last night. Hey,

22
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: Kaylan and Eleiana, we need you to go into the

23
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: swimming pool and help us clean it out. There's a

24
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: whole bunch of branches and stuff that has blown into

25
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: the pool and we need your help cleaning it out. Okay,

26
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: Kaylen and Eleianna ran to go grab their swimsuits and

27
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,639
Speaker 1: put them on. They loved helping. Do you like helping

28
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: with jobs and really special projects around your house with

29
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: your parents? Yeah, that's a great thing to be a

30
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: super duper helper. And Kaylen and Elianna they were very

31
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: eager to save the after this big storm. After they

32
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,919
Speaker 1: put on their swimsuits, they ran downstairs to go towards

33
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: their pool. They started pulling out these big branches that

34
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: were floating at the top, and then all of a sudden,

35
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: Ellianna saw something swim by. Kaylan, there's some there's something

36
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: in the water. What are you talking about. It's just

37
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: start swimming pool, said Kaylan. Nothing lives in here. No,

38
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 1: I promise I saw something swim It was very scary looking,

39
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: but I don't know what it was. I don't see anything,

40
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: said Kaylen. Elean was very careful in pulling out another

41
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: branch because she had definitely seen something. She pulled out

42
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: the next branch out of the water. It's a shark,

43
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: she shouted. Kaylan started laughing hysterically because he thought she

44
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: was joking, but she was not. Get out of here, Eleianna,

45
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: you're hilarious. Just hand me that branch. No, I'm a serious. Look.

46
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: Kaylin leaned over and took another look inside of the pool,

47
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: and sure enough, there's a shark, shouted Kaylan. How did

48
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: that get here? We don't have sharks in our pool.

49
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: Ellianna and Kaylin were very confused, but then they realized,

50
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: wait a second, remember that big storm last night. You

51
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 1: see all this stuff that I don't like. I don't

52
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: know where that came from, and we don't have palm

53
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: trees in our yard. Those palm branches must have come

54
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: from a really far place. I wonder if the storm

55
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: somehow brought the shark here. Can you please help me?

56
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: The shark can talk, Kaylin and Eleanna jumped away from

57
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: the pool. The shark was about two feet long. It

58
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: was a little baby. Eh. I really need help help.

59
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: I somehow got lost and stuck inside this big water trap.

60
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: And I can't get back to the ocean. Can you

61
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: help me? Oh, hello, little shark, said Eliana. It's actually

62
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: not a trap. This is our swimming pool. This is

63
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: where we swim to play. But I think that big

64
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: storm somehow brought you here. Do you promise that you're

65
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: not gonna bite us? Said Kaylan. I promise. I just

66
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: want to get back to my family in the ocean. Oh, yes, certainly,

67
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: we'll help you. Eliana and Kaylan ran over to their garage.

68
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: Had to find a wagon and a big enough bucket

69
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: for this shark to swim in. All right, Uh, yeah,

70
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: here's our wagon. But Kaylan, can you find it like

71
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: a huge tub or something that we could balance on

72
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: top of this wagon. Maybe that'll be good enough to

73
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: get the shark to the ocean. They only lived a

74
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: couple streets over from the beach, and so it was

75
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: close enough to walk. Yeah, here's a big tub, said Kaylen.

76
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: They put the tub on top of the wagon and

77
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: filled it up with some water. All right, I don't

78
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: know how we're gonna get that shark in here. I

79
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: hope he doesn't try to bite us, said Kaylan. Oh,

80
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure he'll be fine. He seems really nice, said Aliana.

81
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: They brought the wagon with the bucket of water over

82
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: to the swimming pool. All right, little shark, what's your name?

83
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: My name's my name's Sammy. I'm really I'm really scared.

84
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: I've never been out of the ocean before. Oh, don't

85
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: be afraid. Well, we were kind of afraid of you,

86
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: but now that we see that you're friendly, please just

87
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: know that we're friendly too. We're gonna help you get

88
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: back to the ocean, said Aliana. Kaylin reached for the

89
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: big pool Scooper net. That was a big net that

90
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: they used to get the leaves out of the pool.

91
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: They never thought that they'd have to get a shark

92
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: out of the pool. Kaylan scooped up the shark was

93
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: very heavy in the net, and carefully placed him in

94
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: the big bucket. Huh, thank you. All right, how do

95
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: we get back to the ocean, said Sammy the shark. Uh, well,

96
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: we're going to walk there. It's uh, it'll only take

97
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes. Don't worry. Kaylin and Eliana. They

98
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: started walking towards the beach, and they actually became really

99
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: good friends with Sammy. On their way, they talked about

100
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 1: all kinds of cool things, some things that Sammy didn't know. Well,

101
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: there was a lot of things that Sammy didn't know

102
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: because he was a shark and wasn't a person. But

103
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: there were also a lot of things that Kaylin and

104
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: Eliana didn't know either. That's the cool thing about making

105
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 1: a new friend when you're not expecting it. You learn

106
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: all kinds of new things, maybe the things that they

107
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: like to talk about, or the things that they like

108
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: to do. And Kaylin and Eliana they learned that this

109
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: shark really love to go surfing on the waves, that

110
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: he likes to ride the waves on his belly. As Kaylin, Ellianna,

111
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: and Sammy the shark arrived at the beach, they were

112
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: a little sad that they had to say goodbye, but

113
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: they knew that the shark needed to return back to

114
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: the ocean. Thank you so much for saving me, Kaylen

115
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: and Eliana said, Sammy, I never could have done this

116
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: without you. I would have been stuck in that pool forever.

117
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I gotta get back to my family.

118
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll see you again later. Bye. As Sammy swam

119
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 1: off in the ocean, there a very very happy shark.

120
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: Kaylin and Eleiana couldn't believe it. Did that storm really

121
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: bring a baby shark into our swimming pool? Wow? That

122
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: is a pretty crazy storm, said Kaylan. Yeah, well, I

123
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: guess we got to go back and clean up some

124
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: more stuff in the yard. I wonder what we'll find next,

125
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: said Elianna. And that is the story about Caitlin and

126
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: Eliana his experience with a giant, well not so giant,

127
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: but a hurricane that brought a shark into their swimming pool. Wow.

128
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if that will ever happen to me

129
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: or you, but I'm glad it happened to Kaylin and Eliana.

130
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: The end. Great job, you listened all the way to
