Good morning and welcome to Kidnews Summer Style.

Through July, we're bringing you a Kidnews Classic Story, followed by a Newdler Challenge.

This one is generously sponsored by the Donald Zonshine Foundation, putting a song in the

heart of those who need it most.

Actor Samuel L. Jackson probably took note of this January headline when EGLEIED TSA

and spotted a four-foot python inside a suitcase when it rolled through X-ray at a security

checkpoint in Tampa, Florida.

Its owner said Bartholomew was her emotional support companion, but when agents asked

the airline, the answer was nope, there will be no snakes on our plane.

According to the TSA, snakes and karyons are a hard no.

Only a few airlines will allow them to fly in check baggage, and only then, if the reptile

is packaged correctly.

Draw a cartoon that shows the reaction of TSA agents and maybe the reaction of the passengers

who got a bird's eye view of the packed python.

Tune in tomorrow for a new story and question taken from our podcast and from our free monthly

worksheet known as the Newdler.

Each exercise is designed to take our Kidnews kids beyond the headlines to get them thinking

critically about current events.

And while you're newdler, we're recharging our news batteries and looking forward to getting

back on the air with fun fresh episodes on Monday, July 31st.
