Hi, welcome to MakeD Up Stories. My name is Maxine.

Hi, my name is Maxine. I'm five years old and I live in Minnesota and I like a story about a queen and a polar bear and a unicorn.

Thank you.

Tonight's Make-Up story is a request from a five-year-old girl who lives in Minnesota and whose name is Maxine.

But Maxine decided she would invite some friends over for a tour of her igloo.

So she called up some of her friends, and Maxine's friends came over, and they said,
