• Life is fun.
    Sometimes life can be
    a little tough.
    Be happy
    and nothing will go wrong.
    Be happy, have fun
    and be strong
    Sometimes, you fall in love.
    It is very romantic.
    Always believe in the future.
    The good things you dream
    will come true if
    you dream them again.
    Step into a new world
    with nature and everything you like.
    Go somewhere you like
    and have fun.

  • TVs are eating children!
    Cars are transforming.
    Robots are coming out of kitties’ heads.
    Giant ants are eating chocolate!
    Babies are trick-or-treating.
    We ran into a haunted house
    full of skeletons, ghosts, and bats.
    They turned us into ghosts!
    We scared the trick-or-treating babies
    and stole their candy.
    Man, Halloween is crazy!
