A LITTLE SPONGEY STORY
"Time for another wonderful visit at Grandma's house," said a square and yellow Spongebob. He was getting ready to leave. All he had to do was to put on his socks and shoes, and then he would be ready to go. Spongebob was tying his shoelaces when he finally said, "I'm ready, Gary. I left some food in the kitchen for when you get hungry."
"Meow," the snail replied with his usual response. "I'm off! See ya later, Gary," said Spongebob with a wave.
When Spongebob got there, he saw his grandma outside waiting for him. "Grandma!" Spongebob yelled. He ran over to hug her. "I'm glad you're back, Spongebob," she said. "Would you like some cookies?"
"Oh, yes, please!" said Spongebob excitedly. She handed him some cookies and went over to her rocking chair to sit down. Spongebob followed and sat down on the floor across from her. She looked at Spongebob eating his cookies and smiled. "Let's see, now. What story should I tell you this time?" she asked with a questioned look on her face. Spongebob stopped his chewing to think. "Ooh! Ooh! I know! I know!" he finally said after a while. "Can I hear about the day I lost my first tooth?"
"All righty, then, I'll tell you that story." Spongebob lied down on his stomach with his legs in the air. He gave her his full attention.
Spongebob woke up and got dressed for school. "Good morning, Gary," he said. "Meow," said Gary. He looked small. Gary was a baby snail. Spongebob was young, too. He was only seven years old.
"Time for breakfast, Spongebob!" called Mrs. Squarepants. Spongebob came down. "Good morning, Mommy."
"Good morning, Spongebob," said Mrs. Squarepants. "I fixed you your favorite cereal."
"Kelpo?"
"Yep."
"Yeah!" Spongebob sat down at the table. Mrs. Squarepants handed him some cereal.
Mr. Squarepants came rushing down the stairs. "I have to leave, now. I'm late for work."
"Good-bye, Dear."
"Good-bye, Honey. Good-bye, Spongebob."
"Good-bye, Daddy." He kissed his wife on the cheek and hugged Spongebob. Then he left for work.
Spongebob had finished his breakfast. "Time to go!" said Mrs. Squarepants. She was waiting in the boat. Spongebob hopped out of his chair, grabbed his lunchbox, and ran out the door. "I'm ready!!" he called back. Spongebob jumped into the boat. Then they took off for school.
Mrs. Squarepants parked in the school parking lot. They got out of the boat to walk Spongebob to his classroom. "Don't forget: Grandma is going to pick you up today."
"Hooray!"
"Be sure to obey the teacher."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Have a nice day. I love you."
"I love you, too, Mommy. Bye-bye."
"Bye-bye."
Spongebob went into the classroom. "Good Morning, Mrs. Puff."
"Oh. Hi, Spongebob," she said. "I was hoping you would be absent today."
"What was that?"
"Oh, nothing. Spongebob, we are doing activity time right now. You can paint, play with the blocks, or other things if you like."
"Okay. I think I'll go play with the blocks." On his way over, he met Squidward. He was painting a picture of himself. "Hi, Squidward."
"Go away!"
"Squidward!" It was Mrs. Puff. She heard Squidward's remark. "That's no way to talk to someone."
"That's okay, Mrs. Puff. That's Squidward's way of saying 'hi' to me," said Spongebob. He started to walk over to the blocks, but on his way over, he accidentally knocked over some paint. "Oops," said Spongebob. The paint spilt all over Squidward's painting. Even worse, it spilt all over Mrs. Puff. "Spongebob!" yelled Squidward. "Sorry," replied the scared sponge. Squidward was very mad and was about to yell at him. "Squidward, Spongebob didn't mean to ruin your painting. It was just an accident," said Mrs. Puff. She wiped off the paint on her. "Spongebob, why don't you go on over to the blocks now." She was now helping Squidward who was crying at this point. "I'm really sorry," said Spongebob.
Spongebob went over to the blocks. Patrick was there. He was working on a tower. "Hi, Patrick."
"Hi, Spongebob. Want to help me build a castle? I need help reaching the top."
"Sure." He ran over to his best friend Patrick. He needed to put one more block on the top to finish the tower. "...But I can't reach the top," he explained. "Maybe I can climb onto your shoulders. Then we would be able to reach the top," suggested Spongebob. "Okay," said Patrick.
Spongebob climbed on top of Patrick. It was hard to do because he had a block in one hand. Once Spongebob got onto his shoulders, Patrick grabbed Spongebob's shoes. Then they took a few seconds to balance themselves. Spongebob reached as far as he could and put the last block on. "Hooray! You did it, Spongebob!" cheered Patrick. He threw his hands up in the air. Spongebob was about to fall, so without thinking he jumped onto the tower to keep from falling off Patrick. "Uh, Patrick? I can't get down." He started to get scared. The tower seemed to sway back and forth.
"Mrs. Puff! Help!" whined Spongebob. Mrs. Puff suddenly looked up. She saw the falling tower and the poor little sponge on top of it. "Don't worry, I'll catch you! Just don't move!" she said, trying to comfort Spongebob. Mrs. Puff came running over to Spongebob. She had her hands out, ready to catch him. She got there just in time. The tower came crashing on top of Mrs. Puff. Blocks went flying everywhere.
The blocks stopped falling. Mrs. Puff was lying on the floor. Spongebob was on top of her sitting up. He was smiling, but his smile only showed one tooth. The other one was between his legs. "Mrs. Pupp, I lost a tooph!" exclaimed Spongebob. Mrs. Puff got up with one hand rubbing her forehead. "Now the tooth fairy can give you a prize."
"The tooth fairy?"
"Uh-hu, at bedtime you put your tooth under your pillow. Then when you're asleep, the tooth fairy comes and turns it into a prize. I got a quarter," said Patrick. "See?" Patrick held out a quarter and smiled, showing a missing tooth. All the kids that were around them were amazed. "Wow!" said Spongebob, wide-eyed. "A whole quarter. You could by a tracker with that, or a bouncy ball. Yeah! That's what I want: a bouncy ball." Spongebob got excited. "Is it bedtime yet?"
"No. Right now it's lunch time," said Mrs. Puff. The children got in line to go to lunch. Once they were gone, Mrs. Puff sighed. "I'm switching to boating school."
Spongebob took a bite of his sandwich. "Owe!" cried Spongebob. "It hurts when I eat." Patrick had his mouth wide open. "How could eating possibly hurt?"
"I don't know. It just does. I don't feel like eating." Spongebob pushed his food away. "I'm not hungry anyways." He put his elbow on the table and his cheek in his hand. He grabbed his juice and started drinking it. "Well, then," said Patrick," can I have your food?"
"Sure." Patrick grabbed his food and gobbled it up.
Squidward was sitting across from Spongebob and Patrick. He didn't like them, but he didn't have anyone else to sit with. Squidward was trying to read a book, even though he didn't know how to read yet, but he couldn't concentrate on it. He peered over his book and saw Spongebob. He snickered. He was glad to see Spongebob actually in pain. "Poor Spongebob," he teased quietly.
