Hi kids! Welcome to Dixie's Storytime World. A Twinkle Original. Formidable Sid. It was Monday
morning and Mr. Garcia had gathered Willowcloth on the carpet for some exciting news. Next week
we're going to be celebrating Pet Day, he said with a big smile. As the week went on, the children
excitedly told each other all about their pets. My cat is so fierce, said Sasha. You'll have to be
careful of his really sharp claws. That's nothing, said Violet. My pet Sid is much fiercer than your
cat. His claws are as long and sharp as a tiger's. I love my horse, said Damien. She's so big and
strong. That's nothing, said Violet. My pet Sid is much bigger and stronger than your horse.
He could crush a car with his paws. My dog is so messy, said Thea. Her face gets all covered in food
when she eats her dinner. That's nothing, said Violet. My pet Sid is much messier than your dog.
He looks and smells like he lives in a swamp. Wait until you meet my pet tortoise, said Riley. He's
so greedy he eats a whole cabbage to himself every day. That's nothing, said Violet. My pet Sid is
much greedier than your tortoise. His giant teeth chop through 20 boulders a day. The days passed
and as pet day started to get closer, the children worried about what terrible creature Violet would
bring to school. I heard Sid is as big as a house, said Jamal. I heard he hides under your bed
waiting to eat you for dinner, said Chloe. I heard even Mr. Garcia is afraid of him, said Sarah.
Even the teachers were talking about Sid. I heard he has eyes that glow in the dark,
said Miss Murphy. It was finally pet day and even though the children couldn't wait to show
off their own pets, all any of them could talk about was Violet's mystery monster.
What if he knocks the school down, said Lee. What if he eats all of our lunches, said Charlie.
What if he eats all of our teachers, said Maya. Mr. Garcia called everyone into the classroom.
Where's Violet, asked Enzo. I hope Sid hasn't gobbled her up. Just then, Violet stomped
proud into the classroom. Everyone gathered at the door, desperate to see what kind of creature
was following behind her. They waited and suddenly Peter cried, I think I can see him.
Violet's mom followed behind, carrying a terrifying, hideous, monstrous,
adorable fluffy bunny. The end. Thank you for listening kids. I hope you enjoyed this story.
I'll see you soon in another video. Always remember to be good and kind. Bye for now.
