Just Add a Speck of Magic

Cereal Pool Adventures Hello, I’m a Cinnamon Toast Crunch guy named Jake. I stand up and have a smile on my face and I’m happy. I have tiny green legs and tiny green hair on my head. I look like a cinnamon toast out of the box. I’m always smiling because I’m not cramped up in the box or because I’m not going to get eaten because I’m plastic and special. My dream vacation is to go jump in a big puddle of milk and go play with my friends and not get eaten! I was sleeping and I woke up in a really good mood the next day. So I called my friends and asked them if they all wanted to hang out at the super milk pool. The super milk pool at a hotel is where there’s lots and lots of pools filled with milk. It smells like fresh milk and they change their milk every day. There’s a kiddie pool and a slide that goes into a really big pool. There’s also an adult pool and it’s really large. There’s an older people pool that’s 5ft. Then there’s a hot tub full of milk! There’s two parts to the hotel–one where you can sleep and one that’s full of all the different kinds of milk on each floor. My friend said “yeah.” His name is Jake too. My other friends are Annie and Annabelle (they’re siblings) and Jackson. They are cinnamon toast crunch too. They met in the box and their parents didn’t want them to get eaten so they found a way to get out. They ran away to Cinnamon Land, which is also made out of different kinds of cereals. We’re all going to go to the super milk pool together at 3:40pm and we’re going to be there until 11 o’clock at night and there’s going to be free food. We eat anything humans can eat. We’re all going to have a sleepover at Annie and Annabelle’s house. At the pool there are big slides and buckets that dump milk on you. I ran around with my friends looking at things to do. There was a huge slide–ginormous, seven feet tall! Jackson and I wanted to go to the pool slide, and Annie and Annabelle wanted to go to the milk hot tub. “Well, how about you guys go on the big slide, and we’ll go in the hot tub,” said Annie.
