Welcome to Makeup, the kids' bedtime rompice.

Tonight's Make-Up story is a request from a three-year-old listener named Henry.

Henry asked for us to make up a story that includes lemonade, which is a yummy kind of drink,

bananas, and grass. And we are going to add a submarine

to the story. Once upon a time, a long time ago, there lived a three-year-old boy whose name was

Henry. One day, Henry woke up and Henry's mama told him that it was his

special birthday and that they were going to go on a birthday adventure. And Henry said he didn't

think it was his birthday, but his mama said it's a secret birthday.

And Henry said, okay, and then Henry's mama put Henry in the stroller,

and they started to go for a walk outside to the cake store.

When they got to the cake store, Henry's mama told the man in the store

that she wants to get a birthday cake

because Henry was turning four years old. And the baker, who is the man in the cake store,

said there were no cakes left. There were only cookies. Why?

I don't know. He didn't know why.

And Henry asked his mama to ask the man why there were no cakes.

And Henry's mama said, Mr. Baker, why are there no cakes in your cake store? And the man said that earlier that day,

a bunch of monkeys were jumping down from trees and they were saying, ah, a, a, uh, uh, uh,

uh, uh, uh, uh, and they opened the door by itself. And he didn't know how they did that,

because he didn't think that monkeys knew how to use keys,

but the monkeys got into the cake store and ate up all of the cakes.

And some of the cakes, the monkeys took away with them to their monkey houses and some monkey trees.
