All-Time Favorite

Once upon a time there were these two carrots. One was an adventuresome little carrot and one was a shy little carrot.

One day the Adventuresome Little Carrot said, 'Shy Little Carrot, there's a whole big world outside our carrot patch and we don't even know what it is! Let's go exploring!!"

The Shy Little Carrot said, 'I don't know, man... it looks kinda scary..."

But the Adventuresome Little Carrot said, 'Come on! Let's go!"

So they HOPPED out of their carrot patch and they hopped and they hopped and they hopped and they hopped.

Pretty soon they came to a freeway! Big trucks going one way! Screaming semis going the other! The Adventuresome Little Carrot thought THIS WAS HEAVEN!! So he watched and he watched... and he waited and he waited... and at just the right time....

ZOOM!!

Ran across the road to the other side!

WHAT... A.... RUSH!!

He turned back to his friend and said, 'Shy Little Carrot! Shy Little Carrot! Come on, man, you can do it!"

And the Shy Little Carrot said, 'I don't know, man... it looks kinda scary...". But he watched and he watched... and he waited and he waited... and at just the right time....

SPLAT!!

Carrot salad.... all over the freeway.....

So they called the little carrot hospital and they sent the little carrot ambulance and they scooped up the Shy Little Carrot and they put him in the carrot ambulance and took him to the carrot hospital and he was in carrot surgery for hours...

and hours...

Finally, the little carrot surgeon came out and said, "Adventuresome Little Carrot... I have some news about your friend. He's going to live, but.... he's going to be a vegetable for the rest of his life."
