Our hero, Carl, wasn't a/ways a

super carrot. When our story begins,

he hadn't yet fully sprouted. He was

smaller than most of the other

vegetables in his class. Even the little

lima bean gang would pick on him.

One day while being chased home

from school (as usual), Carl ran into

Mrs. Greene's Grocery Store. He

knew there were plenty of hiding

Spots inside. But just as soon as he

stepped in the door, Mrs. Greene

Was waiting. "What are you legumes up to?" she roared.

The lima bean gang ran off and Mrs.

Greene went back to sorting her food.

She was taking loaves of bread off

the shelves and putting them in the

garbage. Carl wondered why she was

throwing out so much food .

"You can come out now Carl. They're

gone," said Mrs. Greene.

"Um, Mrs. Greene, what's wrong with

that food?"

"Nothing. This bread is still good.

It's just that the bakery prefers that

we not sell it after a certain date."

"Oh ... " mumbled Carl. But he was still

confused as he waved goodbye and

went on his way.

As Carl left the store he overheard the

Celery Stalk family as they walked by.

"Is Dad bringing home dinner tonight?"

asked Shirley Stalk.

"Maybe dear. We'll see when he gets

home from work," replied Mrs. Stalk.

"Qh man, I'm so hungry I bet I could

eat a million sandwiches!" grumbled

Scottie Stalk.

After he heard the Stalk family

worrying about dinner, Carl had

a great idea!! I

Carl went back to Mrs. Greene's Grocery

Store and explained how the Stalk family

needed food. Mrs. Greene happily gave

him four loaves of day-old bread. It wasn't

a million, but Carl knew it would help. He rI gathered the loaves of bread and hurried {

off to the Stalk family's house.

By the time Carl got to the Stalk's house,

he was so excited that he almost knocked

the door down!

was a superhero, he wanted

to put his new powers to work.

Carl searched the whole city for

extra food. He visited grocery

He gathered all of the food

and piled it in front ofthe Stalk

Family's house as a surprise.

The next morning, as Mr. Stalk was leaving for work,

he nearly jumped out of his overalls!

The food Carl collected had melted all over the lawn.

It was, indeed, a surprise. Carl's messy disaster

was known forever as the "The Great Cheese Flood."
