Hey there, kids and welcome to another episode of Buy Kids for Kids Storytime.

Coming up in this episode, Wizzlethorpe finds a recipe for a potion.

It grants a misability.

But Sparky prevents a disaster.

Wait! We need to check the science.

Will Wiz follow her advice?

Have you ever been so sure you were right about something that you ignored every warning?

Maybe you read it in a book, saw it online, or just really wanted it to be true.

In today's story, Wizzlethorpe falls into that exact trap.

He's found an ancient recipe for a potion that promises to make anyone as hard as a mountain.

He's so blinded by the legend of the scroll that he ignores the fact that his potion looks lumpy

and smells, well, a bit fartyy and perhaps doesn't even work at all.

But there is a life-saving lesson hidden in this comedy of errors and it's something I call the pumpkin test.

Before Wizzlethorpe can coat Sir Chuckle Nugget in this untested sludge, his friends insist on trying

it on a pumpkin first, and thank goodness they did. It turns out a tiny mistake in his ingredients,

transformed a shield into a sugar glaze. If they hadn't tested his theory on a vegetable first, their friend might well have ended up as a pile of dust.

We're talking about why we should value the facts, why we need friends who aren't afraid to tell us we're wrong,

and why you should never, ever skip the pumpkin test in your own life.

Let's meet the superstars on this episode.
