Tonight's Makeup Story is your request from a listener who's a big girl named Jordan, and Jordan asked for us to make up a story that includes a whale and a turtle,

and we're also going to add a moon and some air to the story. Once upon a time, a long time ago,

there was a big girl whose name was Jordan. And Jordan's mama used to read Jordan a book every night.

One day, a new book came in the mail.

But whale rides are very different because whales are slippery and whales are in the water.

So when you get a whale ride, you have to be careful not to slip off.

And that's why Jordan always knew the special whale ride rule, and that was to always use a seatbelt. Well, lucky for Jordan, the whale who was her
