ADVERTS DISCLAIMER:
This podcast has ads at the start of every episode. However never in the middle of a story or at the end.
Please be assured all ad blocks have been applied to ensure no over 18 or inappropriate ads are played.
However, there may be the odd occasion where an advert slips through the net because the company submitting them submits them under a category that is not correct. This happens very rarely and I do my upmost to stop this happening.
If this happens, please email me at shortstoriesforkids@gmail.com and let me know the following information: What the ad was for? What state you live in? And what episode you heard it on and I will immediately contact Spreaker to block the ad.
I take this very seriously and I really appreciate your support and co-operation.
As creators, we want your child’s experience to be a pleasurable one. Running adverts is necessary to allow us to operate, but please do consider the premium subscription service as an alternative – it’s ad free.

| 0:00.0 | And here is today's story request. |
| 0:02.7 | Hi, Short Stories for Kids' Team. |
| 0:05.1 | My name is Cooper from Arizona. |
| 0:08.1 | I am a premium member, and I would love a story about a lizard who is funny. Lizards come in all shapes, sizes and colors, but Cooper was extra special. He was covered in |
| 0:33.7 | purple and yellow splotches, had a head covered in tiny horns and spikes, a long |
| 0:40.4 | body and a short, stumpy tail. Weirdest of all, he also wore a very small bowler hat. He wasn't |
| 0:49.0 | the largest creature in the rainforest, so Cooper had to be careful about what animals he ran into. He didn't have a |
| 0:55.7 | sting like a scorpion or a venomous bite like a cobra, and he wasn't fast like a leaping monkey. |
| 1:02.5 | So when Cooper ran into trouble, he had to rely on something very different indeed. Being a lizard |

| 1:44.3 | Hello, tasty little creature. |
| 1:47.6 | Said the crocodile as he licked his lips. |
| 1:50.4 | I don't know what sort of animal you are, but I'm ever so hungry, so I think I'm just going to eat you up. |
| 1:59.1 | You don't know what animal I am? |
| 2:01.3 | Answered Cooper. |
| 2:02.6 | Well, I'm a lizard. |
| 2:04.4 | You're a funny-looking lizard. |
| 2:07.2 | The crocodile replied. |
