Speaker 1: Short Stories. Today's story I want you to think of

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: two friends that you can share with, because stories with

4
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: friends are way more fun. So I think of two friends,

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: and then your parents can text them the link to

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,479
Speaker 1: this episode and you can listen together. Well, today's story

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: comes to us from Evan and Annabella. 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
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,120
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
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: Me too. Let's go One day in a deep deep

13
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: rainforest lived Evan. Evan is the world's last try sara tops.

14
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:57,920
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 --> 00:01:14,440
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
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: up this morning. Oh oh, another day, another day of

20
00:01:27,520 --> 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 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: know how many horns Try saratops have, Yeah, they have three.

23
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: They have two big ones kind of on the on

24
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: the top of their head that go out, and then

25
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: one little horn kind of near their nose, and all

26
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: together they have three of those horns. That's why they're

27
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: called try saratops. Yeah. Try that means three, So a

28
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: three horned dinosaur. It's a perfect name for Evan. As

29
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: Evan got out of bed, he stretched his legs and

30
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: it was very sad. Oh, I don't have any friends

31
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: that 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
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,400
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
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,160
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 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: creatures that are like me with these three horns, and

38
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: I just feel kind of lonely today. Wait a second,

39
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,359
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 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: are you for real? Said Evan. You've gotta tell me

43
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: where this where this creature is right now. Evan was

44
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,600
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
00:03:18,240 --> 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 --> 00:03:36,320
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
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: Rocky was a very tall mountain with all these big cliffs,

52
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: and it was really hard to climb up and who

53
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: in the world would live up there? Are you serious?

54
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: There's no way I can get up there, said Evan. Oh,

55
00:03:57,040 --> 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
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: members is up there, said Sally. Um, Okay, I guess

58
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,800
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
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: he entered the trail and looked up, WHOA a big mountain.

62
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: It was a big mountain, and it was gonna be

63
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 1: a long hike. And hopefully Sally has heard a legend

64
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: that's true. Sometimes legends are true and sometimes they're not true.

65
00:04:38,920 --> 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 hadn't 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 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: I can't think of any other creatures other than try

69
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: sarahtops with horn on horns on their heads. Right, Well,

70
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: Evan is going to be in for a big surprise

71
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: when he gets up there. As Evan continued hiking up

72
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: the trail, this is this is older than I thought.

73
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: He finally rounded a corner he had made it. Wait

74
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: a second, I'm already to that topened where's the where's

75
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 1: the other tri Sara tops? As he looked around, he

76
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: realized that there was nobody else on top of that mountain,

77
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: and he began to be very very sad. Oh never

78
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 1: find anybody just like me. Evan was very sad, and

79
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he heard a voice, here's crying

80
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: over there are your coll wait is so good? Who

81
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: is that? As Evan looked around back and forth all

82
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 1: over the mountain, he didn't see anyone, and then all

83
00:05:54,720 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden, howl can can I hoppler? It was

84
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 1: a unicorn dune dune dong. The legend was actually true.

85
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: There was a creature with a horn on his head,

86
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: but it was not not try Saratops. It was a

87
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: unicorn how man almods and a ballad sor a long.

88
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: As Evan wiped off the tears off his face, he said,

89
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: my name's Evan, and I've been looking for a creature

90
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: that I was told it looks like me, but you're

91
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: not a try Saratops nor I'm gonna learn the current

92
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: bat just wrap rule burts have horns on her head.

93
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: That's co oh. Yeah, I guess I've never met another

94
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: creature that has a horn on their head like me.

95
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 1: That's that's kind of cool. Yeah, I'm kind of looking

96
00:06:54,400 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: for something to you o kid oaks, let's go oh.

97
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: And that is the day that Evan. Unfortunately he was

98
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: not able to find another try Saratops, but he made

99
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 1: a new friend, a new friend that kind of looked

100
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: like him, but not exactly, and I think they're going

101
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: to be amazing new friends. Who would ever imagined that

102
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: a unicorn and a try Sara tops would become friends.

103
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: But I guess Evan and Annabella they were just meant

104
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: to be. They were meant to be good friends all

105
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: because Sally the Lemur sent Evan on a mystery adventure

106
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: with a very mystery ending. I never would have seen

107
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: this coming, but I think Evan has found the new

108
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: friend that he has been looking for his whole life.

109
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: The end, great job, you listened all the way to
