Once Upon a Time
According to Dora, four and a half:
Once upon a time, there was a little Ducky.
The Ducky loved his Mommy, and him and his Mommy had fun in a pond splashing all around and made a BIG MESS. Then, Mommy had more and more and more little duckies and spent her WHOLE LIFE being a Mommy.
One day Mommy got tired and turned herself into a person with some majic. The little Ducky missed his Mommy, but he was a ducky and couldnt live with Mommy because she was a person, and he was a ducky.
Ducky was lost because he didnt have any majic, so he found his Mommy and took some majic out of her pocket and made himself into a person. And he used the majic and POOF he was a person, not a ducky. He gave his Mommy a hug and she said "I love you Ducky", and he was happy.
Then he was hungry and he found some apples and ate them and made himself ALL FAT then he threw up the apples. Then his mommy cooked dinner and they all ate and didnt throw up.
The End.
I swear upon my life, this is a story she just told me while I was putting her in bed. Pretty good story for a pre-schooler if you ask me. Has every part of a real story. Pretty relevant too. I wonder if she knows what Im thinking sometimes.
Weird.
