The Day Ben Lost His Necklace

By the kids at the Decatur Library

Ben LOVES his necklace. And why not? It's beautiful, it's pink and white, and it's magic! Ben is a very large, very nice monster who wears clothes, just like a person. He lives downtown in Atlanta, where he has lived since December, 2026, when he graduated from college.

The day he lost his necklace was terrible! While he was sleeping, a mean, ugly wizard named Johnny used a magic spell to make the necklace float out of Ben's apartment. Johnny had a lot of magical power, but he wanted more. That's why he was stealing the necklace.

Ben woke up as the necklace was floating toward the window, and when he saw it, he called for Muu Muu his amazing dog (who, by the way, thinks he is a cow). Muu Muu saw the necklace, and jumped up and caught it just before it sailed out the window to the wizard.

Johnny disappeared in a puff of smoke, and as he vanished he shouted, "You haven't seen the last of me! I'll get that necklace if it's the last thing I do!"

The End.

But there's no doubt that Johnny will be back. What do you think will happen when he comes back? Leave a comment below.
