Lying King meets a giraffe [Daddy's bad children's story]


One day, Baby Monster Lying King met a giraffe.

Now, this was no ordinary giraffe.

Giraffes are normally very peaceful animals, and all they do is eat leaves.

But you know what this giraffe ate?

Baby Monster Lying Kings.

CHOMP!

Have fun,
– the daddy

Baby Monster Little Bird and Sunflower…
a fun Playstation PS3 Singstar adventure


If you remember from our first children's story,
Baby Monster Sunflower was very naughty,
but Baby Monster Little Bird was very sweet.

"No I wasn't!" shouted Baby Monster Sunflower.
"Baby Monster Little Bird was very naughty,
but I, Baby Monster Sunflower, was very sweet."

"But Baby Monster Little Bird
told her mom, MY MOM!
that she was very sweet
and I was very naughty…"

"So my mom shouted at me,
'Go up to your room, Baby Monster Sunflower!'"

"So then I went to my room and listened to music."

"Da da da da da, Everybody dance now!
Everybody dance…"

"Hey what happened to my music?
No problem, I can fix it."
Boop boop boop.

"It's the final countdown. Du du du du du. It's the final countdown."

"With a taste of your lips I'm on a ride. I'm toxic."

"It's coming home. It's coming home. It's coming home. Football's coming home."

Have fun,
– Josie

That's the way the Cookie Street crumbles
[Memories from Magic World: day 18]


The true story of a little girl's imaginary world.

This is a very sad story. Waa – waa – waa.

You see Cookie Street in Magic World is all cracked up. WAA – WAA!

It's all broken. Sniffle – sniffle – sniffle.

And all the chocolate chips in it are melted. And they are all gushy and squishy, and if your feet go into them they go squish – squash – squish.

It's disgusting…

AND THEN

"Don't worry, dear. I'm going to fix Cookie Street with our new cookies from the supermarket."

AND THEN

Okay… how come it's not fixed yet? Fix it now! Fix it now! Fix it now!

AND THEN

"Okay, and then everybody broke into song. Du du du du du. Du du du du du. Everybody dance now."

AND THEN

No, no, no, no dancing. You can't dance here. There's a problem. If you dance on this crumbled Cookie Street, with all the melted chocolate chips, then everyone will get very hurt and messy.

AND THEN

"Sweetie, it's done."

AND THEN

Yeah, I'm going to eat all the cookies on Cookie Street. Gobble – gobble – gobble.

AND THEN

"What are you doing with all those cookies? You're going to get sick."

AND THEN

Oh, I don't feel so good. I think I'm going to…

Have fun,
– Josie (and the daddy)

Once upon a time there was a princess /
Der var engang en prinsesse
[Danish to English (translation) / Dansk til Engelsk (oversættelse)]


Once upon a time, there was a princess who lived in a castle with her stepmother.
. Der var engang en prinsesse, som boede på et slot med sin stedmor.
.
What are you doing dad? Arrrrrrrr. Far. What am I doing?
. Hvad laver du far? Arrrrrrrr. Dad! Hvad laver jeg?
.
And her stepmother was a real princess, but she was turned into an old witch.
. Og hendes stedemor var en rigtig princesse, men hun var blevet tryllet om til en gammel heks.
.
So, the princess went for a walk on Candy Road, where there were lollipops and every kind of candy. She could just pick them up from the ground, and then came new ones.
. Så var det, at prinsessen gik en tur på Slikgade, hvor der var slikkepinde og alt muligt slik. Hun kun bare tage dem op fra jorden af og så kom der nye.
.
The next road was Kissing Street….
– Have fun, Josie
. Den næste gade var Kyssegade…
– Hav det sjovt, Josie

GREAT FRUIT!
I'm a Grape and you're a Watermelon


Once there was a little girl who was hungry.

She decided to eat some fruit, so she she came to me — the grape — and opened her mouth.

I said, "No, no. Do not eat me. Can't you see my eyes? Can you see me. Do not eat me."

"Who's that? Who's that?" said the little girl. "Mom, is that you?"

"No," said her mom. "I can't hear anything."

"Dad, is that you?"

"Nooooooo," said I, the grape. "It was me. Look at your fruit."

"Aghhh! Mom, the fruit is talking."

"That's nice dear."

"What's that matter?" I asked. "Didn't you know that all fruit talks? But you only have watermelons and grapes… I guess that's okay since we're in the same family. You know, Watermelons are old people and Grapes are young people."

"Well," said the little girl, "should I eat you then?"

"No way! What are you thinking! I do not want to be in that old, stinky tummy of yours! Yuck! With all that sticky, sticky candy. Eww, fruit and candy together… No Way. "

Have fun,
– Josie
