Intermission: Little Roy Bongleboose and His Exciting Adventure
Little Roy Bongleboose was a boy who liked to play outside, except when he was told. As fate would have it, one day, when the sun was hiding behind some evaporated kangaroo tears, his Mumsy and Daddykins told him to get a breath of fresh air: out of their hair! With and upside-down smile, he jumped out the window and landed on his bum.
This seemed to please his parents, so Roy made off to his sand box. Here he sat building sandcastles until the moon came to say hello. At such a moment, as he was about to return to his family, Roy was greeted by a voice from behind him. He turned to look. It was the Snail Man.
“Do I know you?” Roy questioned.
“I’m sorry. Allow me to introduce myself. I am the Snail Man.”
“I’ll believe it!” laughed Roy. He couldn’t help but notice that the man did look like a giant snail with arms and legs. “Well, it’s good to meet you Snail Man, but I must be back to my parents. They usually start to miss me after many hours.”
“But you mustn’t!” cried the SM with a shocking urgency.
“Why not?” asked Roy.
“Because they aren’t your parents at all! They’re rock monsters!”
“I don’t believe you!” Roy cried.
“I swear it is so! Just take a look for yourself!”
At the Snail Man’s request, Roy crawled up the wall and peeked his head through the window to see his parents. He couldn’t believe his eyes! The Snail Man was right. They were rock monsters.
Roy crawled back in a cold sweat. “Good golley goose! You were right Mister Man! What must I do now?”
“We need to find your real parents ASAP!”
“Oh, wherever are they?”
“I left them on Pickle Planet.”
“Well, we don’t have a moment to lose!”
At the drop of a hat, the two new friends went on an exciting adventure to Pickle Planet and found Roy’s parents right where the Snail Man had left them.
