1 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Hey, friends, it's Mr Jim and welcome back to Kids 2 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,639 Speaker 1: Short Stories. This week, we are celebrating the launch of 3 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: my first book called The Day We Saved the Lightbulb. 4 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: Make sure that you tell your parents to go check 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: out the show notes below, where that link will send 6 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 1: you to the page where you can preorder it. I 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: just need to know how many of you want your 8 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: own book, and maybe you'll even click a reward where 9 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 1: I will sign your book. There's some pretty cool rewards 10 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 1: waiting for you over there that you've got to see 11 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 1: for yourself, including some puzzles and some other surprise as well. Friends, 12 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 1: are you ready to get into today's adventure? I definitely am. 13 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: Let's go. It was a beautiful day outside as the 14 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: school bell ring and all the kids ran out the 15 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: front door of the school. They were very excited for 16 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: school to be done so that they could go play. Hey, guys, 17 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:10,839 Speaker 1: want to come back to my house and build a fort? 18 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: Said Kaden to his friends. Yeah, and on the way there, 19 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: I think there's a new snack shop that just opened 20 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: up right next to the neighborhood. We should go check 21 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 1: it out, said one of his friends. That sounds delicious, Yes, 22 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,919 Speaker 1: snack shop and then fort building. Let's go, as Kayden 23 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: and his friends rode their bikes from school. Thankfully, they 24 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: lived very close to their school. Their neighborhood was just 25 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: across the street. But recently, there was a new snack 26 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: shop that had just opened outside the back of a 27 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: big truck. It's kind of like a food truck, but 28 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: it was a snack truck. As Kayden and his friends 29 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: walked up to that big purple snack truck, they were 30 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: very surprised by the options on the menu. Wow, guys, 31 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: it says these things are the healthiest and most delicious 32 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: next in the entire world, said Kaden. There's no way 33 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: that it's both healthy and delicious at the same time, 34 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: said one of his friends. We gotta try it for ourselves. 35 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: Excuse me in there. Uh we're ready to order, shouted 36 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: one of the friends. The worker inside the truck leaned 37 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: out the window and said, hello, everybody, Yes, just farm 38 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: a single file line and tell me what you need. 39 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: Kayden felt like you recognized that voice, but this was 40 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: the first time he had ever been to this giant 41 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: snack truck before. Oh well, maybe it's nothing, but maybe 42 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: it's something strange. I'm not sure. I think we'll all 43 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:44,679 Speaker 1: try whatever your most popular snack is. Um, well, we'll 44 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: start with that one, said Kayden. Oh yeah, that would 45 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: be this healthy snack ball for for four dollars. Here 46 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: you go. As the friends handed the four dollars, they 47 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: were given each one healthy snack ball. What in the 48 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: world does a snack ball? I don't look strange, but 49 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: I guess I'll give it a try, said one of 50 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: Kayden's friends. Cayden was still a little not sure because 51 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: I really thought he recognized that voice from somewhere before, 52 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: but he couldn't remember where. Now that we got our snacks, 53 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: let's go build that ford, Caden. Come on. His friends 54 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: raced off, and Caden followed closely behind. The rest of 55 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 1: the afternoon they spent building out this most amazing fort 56 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: in Caden's backyard. M hm hm, that snack ball was delicious, 57 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: said one of his friends. I know that was probably 58 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: if that's really healthy, that was definitely like the most delicious, 59 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: healthy thing I've ever eaten in my entire life, said 60 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: another friend. I forgot to eat mine, said Caden. You what, Yeah, 61 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: I think I got distracted and I might have left 62 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: that snack ball back at the truck. It's probably gone 63 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: by now. Oh it's all right, Kayden. We'll get one 64 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: on the way home from school tomorrow. But anyway, it's 65 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: almost dinner, so I think we all gotta start heading 66 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: home and we'll see you tomorrow, Kayden. Okay, see you later, guys, 67 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: see tomorrow. Cayden waved as his friends started to leave 68 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: and walk back to their houses. They all lived in 69 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: the same neighborhood, which was pretty awesome because they got 70 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: to see each other all the time at school and 71 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: even outside of school. Meanwhile, back at that Purple snack truck, 72 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: I think Cayden's suspicions were correct. Hey bus, Yeah, the 73 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: plans working perfectly. I need update. How is the snack 74 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: balls selling? Many people buys them and likes him? Did 75 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: we trick them? Basically? Is the plan working Purple Ninjas, Yes, 76 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: bats we sold out of all the snack balls. People 77 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: love them. But I'm pretty sure they're going to tell 78 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: all their friends about our you know how they snack 79 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: ball sh Yes, the junk food monster slime balls that 80 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 1: we have tricked them into thinking's it's a healthy snack 81 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: ball will work perfectly. It will first make them sick 82 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: and then we'll be able to control their minds after 83 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: they eat a few more of the snack balls. Keep 84 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: it up, Purple Ninjas, and keep me updated. As Doctor 85 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: Stinky Breath looked out from the window of the Stinky 86 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: Blimp Lab down at his purple snack truck, he started 87 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: to believe that this might actually be the plan that 88 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: helps him take over the world. As Kaden was doing 89 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: the dishes after dinner, his mom walked over and said, Hey, Kayden, 90 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: I just got off the phone with your friend's mom's 91 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: and they're all very sick all of a sudden. Are 92 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: you feeling sick at all? All three of them said Kayden, No, 93 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: I'm feeling totally fine. I don't feel sick at all. Well, 94 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to be at school tomorrow, 95 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: and we should probably keep a close eye on you 96 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: and make sure you don't get a fever, said his mom. 97 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: You should go on and get ready for bed. As 98 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: Kayden walked to his room, he then remembered that snack 99 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: truck from before, and that is when it all made sense. 100 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: Holy smokes, that guy is selling the sex. I know 101 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: exactly what his voice was. Kaden raced up to his 102 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: room to grab and walkie talkie. H Q, HQ. This 103 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: is Kaden. It's an emergency over Kaden. What seems to 104 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: be the problem. Are there reports of a whole bunch 105 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: of people getting sick yesterday, like especially in my area 106 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: around by the school. Sh strange that you ask, but yes, 107 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: we have heard of many people getting sick recently. Are 108 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: you feeling okay, Kayden? Yeah, yeah, I'm I'm fine. It's 109 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: my friends though. We stopped at this snack truck that 110 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: said it was like a healthy snack, but I don't know. 111 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: It just didn't feel right, and so I didn't eat 112 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: my snack ball, but all my other friends did and 113 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: now they're all sick. Oh no, it sounds like that 114 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: snack truck must have had a bad recipe. On accident. No, no, no, 115 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it was an accident. I think it 116 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: was on purpose. The voice of the man behind inside 117 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: of the truck that was giving the snack balls, he 118 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: sounded just like a purple Ninja. I'll spy on the 119 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: truck tomorrow and update you with whatever I uncover. Stay safe, Kayden, 120 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: good luck. I know it was that snack truck. I've 121 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: got to save my friends. Oh no, what in the 122 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: world is gonna happen with Kayden, his friends and all 123 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: the other people that are getting sick? Is it really 124 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: connected to that snack truck. I'm not sure what's gonna happen, 125 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: but it sounds like Caden has entered into a new 126 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: spy adventure. We'll have to wait and see what happens 127 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: on the next episode of Kids Short Stories.
