Hey friends it's Mr. Jim and welcome back to Kid Short stories. If this is your first time

welcome to the family we have a ton of fun here and for all of my other awesome listeners.

Thank you for listening every day.

I know you have so many different options to listen from,

but parents, thank you for inviting our stories into your home, into your cars, and into sleepy

time.

Well friends, are you ready for today's adventure?

Me too, let's go! Hey Ben, don't forget the flippers!

Shattered Valentine.

Yep, I... Hey Ben don't forget the flippers shouted Valentin.

Yep I got him over here.

Valentin and Ben were getting all their scuba gear ready for an adventure.

You see they lived on a very large ship in the

middle of the ocean, far far away from any land nearby, and their job was to explore the deepest of deepest

places in the ocean.

Wow, they are much braver than me. I don't think I would want to go into the very deep, deep

parts of the ocean with scuba gear. What about you? Did you do that?

Well as Valentin and Ben had all their scuba gear ready,

they are pulled up, their rye down to the bottom.

The deepest part of the ocean is called the Mariana Trench.

It is so very, very deep that, let's say you and I had the world's biggest shovel that we could scoop up the tallest mountain in the world

Do you know what that mountain is called? Yes, Mount Everest if we were able to scoop up that big tall, ginormous mountain and put it in the deepest part of the ocean, do you think it would be sticking out of the water?
