☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis anthology issue contains multiple stories. "Bubble Swipers" follows a young boy who encounters cloud-dwelling bubble creatures and learns they suffer from "laziphobia," a disease preventing them from gathering food, so he generously gives them his collected bubbles as jewelry. "Chumpo the Chimp" tells of a generous chimp who spends all afternoon gathering bananas, then shares them with two hungry monkey friends Mogo and Mofo, only to discover they were feigning illness to take advantage of his kindness. The issue also includes a story about a young boy who attempts to move his playhouse into a hole in a tree, enlisting help from a crane operator at a nearby construction site.
Li'l Genius and Li'l Tomboy get experimental with their bubble soap, mixing in spices and chemicals to create more interesting bubbles—and stumble onto something far stranger when one of their creations whisks them away to Bubble Land, a kingdom ruled by King Bubbly. When the bubble inhabitants mistake them for thieves and lock them in the Detergent Dungeon, the kids discover a simple pin can be a powerful tool in a world built entirely of bubbles. A whimsical romp through a soapy realm where ingenuity and kindness offer a way back home.
When a young boy named Ollie volunteers to caddy for his boss at the golf course—despite knowing nothing about the game—he quickly learns that "helpful" can mean something entirely different on the fairway. As Ollie cheerfully pitches in to assist with each shot, things take some wonderfully chaotic turns, and the boss's scorecard begins to look better than it has any right to. A lighthearted romp through 18 holes where enthusiasm might matter more than the rulebook.
When Sly Fox vows to keep Atomic Bunny away from his carrot patch while Aunt Goody Bunny visits, the mischievous fox thinks he's found the perfect trap—but his nemesis has a secret stash of atomic carrots hidden around the area that keep him powered up for every confrontation. As Sly Fox pursues Atomic Bunny across land and sea, each strategic move backfires when another hidden carrot appears, turning the tables in ways the wily fox never anticipated.
A young builder gets the idea to construct an oversized birdhouse by hoisting his playhouse onto a pole—figuring a bigger home will attract a bigger bird. When his friend Ollie comes to check out the new contraption, he gets quite the surprise that turns the whole scheme gloriously upside down. What starts as a playful prank leads to an unexpected twist that leaves everyone amazed.
