"Slide To Adventure"

Jerry was a smart little boy, who loved adventure.  

One fine day, he was playing in his back-yard.  He went down the slide!

Normally, it was a short slide, but this time it just kept going. . .

. . .  And going, and going, and going.  

Jerry landed in a forest clearing, on some soft, green grass.

“Where am I?” said Jerry.  

A voice in the distance replied:  “Follow me, and you will see!”

So Jerry followed the voice. . .

Over a blue rock. . .

Under a purple bridge. . .

Through the rainbow woods. . .

Over the pink mountains. . .

Over the red cliff. . .

Hang-gliding through the magenta sky. . .

Down the orange chimney and. . .

Into the kitchen!  

“You see,” said the voice.

Jerry looked up!

“It’s me!” said the voice.

Jerry was surprised to see his mother there!

“Mother!” said Jerry, “Why did you make me go through all of those strange places?”

“What are you talking about Jerry, you were just on the slide!” his mother said impatiently.

And his mother set the table, and they ate hot dogs for dinner.

Jerry looked out, and he saw the top of the slide.

But he knew the adventures that waited on the other side!
