Creating stories together: The Rolly Pollie

Once there was a rolly pollie. He lived in a hole right in someone's garden. When they were sleeping he got some food from their house. He took it back to his family. They had nice dinners every night. Then he saw a beautiful flower. He wished he was a human so he could pick it and put it in a vase. Then a beautiful princess came who was nice to all the creatures. She took petals off the flower and made dresses with them for all of the girl rolly pollies and shirts and pants for the boys. Then they went home and ate their food. Then they had a rolly pollie ball where everybody danced. The rolly pollie's name was Rolly Pollie Macarolly.
