fairytale

once upon a time there was a little girl names lisa. Lisa was terrified of going down the slide at her local playground. Every day her mom would take her to the park and Lisa would play on the swing set, the merry-go-round, then sandbox, and even the monkey bars. But the one thing Lisa did not go on, was the slide.
One day, Lisa was playing in the sandbox with her two friend Mark and Sandra when she heard "last one to the slide is a rotten egg!" Mark and Sandra both jumped up from building sandcastles and mud pies and ran over to the slide where the rest of the children were playing. Lisa wanted to join her friends but she didn't want to get made fun of for being scared of riding down the slide.
"Come on Lisa!" Yelled Sandra.
"Were gona race!" Echoed Marc who was already climbing the ladder to the top of the slide. Lisa, was nervous but decided to walk over. Sandra was already on her way down when she pointed to Lisa and said, "Its your turn!"
"I dont feel very well, im not going down the slide." Lisa began to make up excuses to hide her fear in front of the other kids.
"What, are you chicken!" Mark began to squawk and the other children chimed in. Lisa was still terrified of sliding down the slide. She remembered when she was very young and she once tried going down the slide and bumped her knee on the ground below. She remembered getting a scrape and then a band-aide. Was it really that bad? She thought. Finally Lisa decided to try the slide. She put on a brave face and began to climb the ladder.
When she reached the top, she began to shake and all her fear came back to her. She was thinking about the pain when she scraped her knee and how much she cried when it happened. Suddenly WOOOOOSHHHHHH. She sat down and slid all the way to the bottom. When she stood up she looked down at her knees, which were scrape free! Never again was she going to let a silly fear get in the way of her fun!
