Max Hatching on His Home
Planet

The City Where Max Was Born

Max Arriving at Earth as a
Youngster. He's on the Right

Sally was no ordinary girl. She had a secret, a very big secret. Living in her attic was a friendly monster named Max. He wasn't just any monster; Max was a shape-shifter. He could transform into almost anything - a giant hairy beast, a tiny, cuddly creature, or even a friendly ghost.

Max was Sally's best friend, and he helped out around the house. He'd vacuum, do the dishes, and even help with the laundry. The family loved Max, and he was a part of their family.

One day at school, Sally's teacher pulled her aside. "Sally," the teacher said, "you're such a quiet girl. I think it would be great if you could participate in tomorrow's show-and-tell."

Sally's heart pounded. She was very shy and didn't like to talk in front of people. But she knew Max would support her.

The next morning, Mom found a backpack and a lunchbox for Max. Sally and Max boarded the school bus, and soon they were at school. When Sally introduced Max to the class, there was a collective gasp. Some of the kids looked scared, while others giggled nervously. - Story continues after some pictures of Max -


Max (Not Shape-shifted)


Max Off to School for Sally's
Show-and-Tell


Max, however, was oblivious to their fear. He transformed into a tiny, cuddly creature and waddled up to the front of the room. Sally pulled a bag of candy from her backpack and handed it to Max. With a knowing look, Max began to pass out the candy to the children.

At first, the kids were hesitant to take the candy from a monster. But Max's friendly smile and the delicious smell of the treats were too much to resist. Soon, the classroom was filled with the sounds of laughter and munching.

As Max passed out the candy, Sally found herself talking about him. She told the class about Max's shape-shifting abilities and how he helped around the house. To everyone's surprise, Sally was no longer shy. She was confident and excited.

By the end of show-and-tell, Max had won over the entire class. The kids were no longer afraid of him; they were his friends. And Sally? She couldn't have been happier. Her secret was out, and she had overcome her shyness

Prompt given to Gemini: Write a story about a friendly monster who was adopted by the family of a girl named Sally. The monster was a shape-shifter, which meant that it could make itself look like several different types of monsters. The monster helped out around the house and everyone in the family loved him. At school one day, the teacher talked to Sally. Sally was very shy, but the teacher said she should be brave and participate in tomorrow's show-and-tell. The next day, Mom found a backpack and a lunchbox for the monster. Sally and the monster boarded the school bus, and soon they were at school. All the children were scared at first, but the monster won them over by passing out candy. Even better, Sally overcame her shyness and felt comfortable talking about the monster.
