Hello friends, it's Mr. Jim and welcome back to Kid Short Stories.

Today's story comes to us from Nella and Lena.

Hey guys, they sent me an awesome idea for a story and you can too.

Just head over to Kid Short Stories.com.

Send me your idea and maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure.

Are you guys ready for a story about a mean ogre pushing over all the trees in the forest?

Me too. Let's go!

Nella and Lena lived in a castle far, far away, in the middle of a beautiful forest. Do you know who lives in castles?

These two brave princesses, who they were on the animal rescue team and a part of the guardians of the forest.

They had very important jobs.

Not only were they princesses, but they also had to be brave and make sure that everyone in the forest was safe.

Well, this morning something crazy happened, something that they never saw coming.

Hey, Nella, when we're done with our chores, do you want to go outside and play? said Lina.

Oh, absolutely. I can't wait to go outside. What do you want to play?

Um, maybe we could play like hide and seek. That's pretty fun. Or we could play kick the can. Ooh, those are both really good

choices. Uh, let's do hide and seek, said Nella. Yes, even princesses have chores to do around the castle.

They were in charge of making sure all the dishes were clean

and their rooms were picked up

and any mail in the mailbox was brought inside.

These were really important jobs that they were responsible over. So that means when the job

gets done well, they get a reward. And if the job does not get done well, well they still have to do it.

But no reward. All right, Lena, I'm almost done. How's the dishes going?
