Thomas J. Tooth and the Marshmallow Field The Brilliant Adventures of Thomas J. Tooth
-
- Stories for Kids
Near Thomas J. Tooth’s home was a large field of marshmallows. Thomas J. loved marshmallows, but children weren’t allowed to go near the field. One day during dinner, Thomas J. Tooth asked his dad why no one ever went near the field, even though everyone seemed to love the white fluffy treat. His dad just said it wasn’t safe and little teeth could get stuck out in the bog.
That wasn’t good enough for Thomas, and he decided to go investigate for himself. One day he went to the field and sure enough he got stuck, but he was soon free and hurried home. He was asked where he had been and why he was late for dinner. And when he told his mom and dad, he was sent to his room for not minding. Later, his Dad came in and said he didn’t want Thomas J. going near the marshmallow field because it was dangerous. Thomas J. told his dad that he was sorry and wouldn’t do it again.
It was only a few days later while out playing with his friend, Freddie Molar, that he told Freddy how he had gone to the marshmallow field and escaped unscathed. Freddie told him he thought Thomas J. was very brave for going, and Freddie said that he had always wanted to go too.
Thomas J., forgetting what his dad has told him, asked Freddy if he would like to go and Freddy said yes. It was a beautiful sunny day and
Thomas said they could go right then. They hopped on their bikes and rode to the field. As they were walking through the field, on the fluffy marshmallows, they begin to get bogged down.
Because the marshmallows were getting very sticky in the hot sun, they were soon completely stuck in marshmallows from head to root. Well, for the next couple of hours they just sat there, not being able to move and it began to get dark.
They finally heard a noise and started to call out, but to their horror they could see K-Germ off in the distance, and it looked like he was getting closer. The cavity monster, or K-Germ as they called him, was looking for little teeth to give give cavities, especially ones covered in candy.
“Oh, no,” they thought. “What can we do?”
But soon they heard Thomas’ dad, who was looking for them. Because he was an adult and was stronger and knew how to travel through the marshmallows without getting stuck, he got to them before K-Germ did. He cleaned them up with the toothbrush and toothpaste that he had brought and took them home to safety.
Thomas was sorry that he had forgotten what his dad hold told him. And from then on, he tried harder to mind his mom and dad.
