The Feast of the Sleeping Giant
Once upon a time, in a land where the clouds were made of cotton candy, lived a girl named Museam. Museam loved two things more than anything else: eating and sleeping. Every morning, she would wake up and immediately reach for a plate of sparkling star-donuts. [chuckle] "Oh, these are so yummy!" she whispered. Because she lived in a fantasy world, the food was magical and never ran out. Museam spent her whole day munching on treats and napping under the shade of giant lollipops. [sigh] She was very happy, but she was also becoming very, very round. She moved so slowly that even the snails would pass her by on the road.
The Heavy Heart
One afternoon, Museam tried to climb the Sparkle Hill to see the sunset, but she couldn't do it. She was so heavy that her legs felt like lead. [groan] "Why is this so hard?" she huffed, sitting down on a mushroom. She realized that eating all day and never moving made her feel tired and sluggish. Even her favorite hobby—going to the bathroom every single day after her big meals—felt like a chore because she was so slow. [sniff] She looked at her reflection in a nearby pond and saw how much she had changed. She missed being able to run and jump through the meadows.
The Magic Gym
Museam decided it was time for a change. She traveled to the Great Crystal Jim, a place where people went to get strong and healthy. At first, it was very difficult. [gasp] "I didn't know moving could be this much work!" she cried as she walked on the rainbow treadmill. But she didn't give up. Every single day, she went to the Jim. She swapped her giant chocolate bars for crunchy magic apples and drank clear water from the mountain spring. She worked hard, sweating and stretching under the watchful eyes of the gym's friendly owls. [groan] It was tough, but she felt her muscles getting stronger every day.
Light as a Feather
Months passed, and the hard work paid off. One morning, Museam looked in the mirror and saw a brand new girl. She was thin, strong, and full of energy! [laugh] She ran out of her house and sprinted all the way to the top of Sparkle Hill without stopping once. She still enjoyed her food, but now she ate just enough to feel good, and she never forgot to exercise. She felt as light as a feather and as fast as the wind. [laugh] Museam was no longer the lazy girl who only ate and slept; she was the bravest, fastest explorer in the whole fantasy land!
