A Cheesy Lesson

There is a place up in the sky that we do not know about. It’s a place called Cheddar- Ville, up beyond the clouds. It’s a place where everybody is either big, or really small.

The big ones are large. I mean like an elephant. Like a giant floating on clouds.

The small ones are tiny, but there’s a lot more of them.

Big or small, they all have one thing in common.

They love to eat space cheese.

You could call them mice people, but they aren't really mice.

The big people (or BUGs as they call themselves: Big Unfriendly Giants) were very greedy and selfish. Because they were bigger, they would bully the little people and steal their cheese if they wanted to.

Now the funny thing about space cheese is that while it’s delicious it also makes you glow really bright, and makes you really sleepy. A deep sleep you just can’t fight.

Now the little people were fed up and hungry. As hungry a starving snake. So one day they decided to teach the BUGs a lesson. They decided to hide their cheese in inside a hollow space rock that had floated astray from the enormous rings of Saturn like a lost sheep.

But before they could, they needed the BUGs to fall asleep, forever. So, they gave the BUGs all the cheese they could find. Heaps and heaps of it. The BUGs were amazed, and thrilled, like a cheater in a herd of Caraboo.

CHOMP CHOMP… the BUGs ate and ate. Filled their tummies to brim. And then one by one they fell into a deep deep slumber.

Now that the little people were free, they could store their cheese in the space rock and they could get and do what ever they needed, whenever they wanted. It’s was a cheese bank.

Now we don’t know this. Because we see the BUGs and the cheese bank as the stars and the moon and when see a half moon, that’s when they have when eaten half their cheese, and when it’s full they have a lot of cheese left.

The BUGs glow like the bank, but they never wake up. So can never steal from the little people again.
