Storybook with Kids I Babysit

The Lion and the Mouse

Once upon a time there was a huge lion asleep in the savannah.
A tiny mouse accidentally woke the lion up.
The lion was angry to have been disturbed and threatened to eat the mouse.
The mouse begged for mercy and promised to repay the lion in some way.
The lion laughed at the thought of a tiny mouse being able to help a big lion, but allowed the mouse to live.
Later, the lion got tangled in a net left by trappers.
He was unable to free himself, but he saw the mouse passing by and asked it to chew through the net.
The mouse happily chewed the ropes of the net. The lion, now free, apologized for thinking that someone so small could never be useful.

Kay, so that's the example story I have for the children. We're (hopefully) going to make a book together. I guess I might make one without the kids if they turn me down, but it'd be more fun to do it with them.

I'll update after the babysitting gig, possibly with pictures and a further explanation.

UPDATE

Very successful night! Here's pictures of our finished product.

Once there was a girl. She was having a wonderful life in the clouds with her friend Cinderella when suddenly she was grabbed off the clouds by a big, fat giant and put in a tall tower.

With the turn of a key the not-so-friendly giant had the girl locked up for what he thought was forever.

The girl did not know what the do. First she tried calling for help; that did not work.

Next she tried climbing through the window but there were wooden bars clocking her escape.

Finally she tried calling for help one last time. Cinderella heard her!

Cinderella climbed up (the) tower by the vine (beanstalk) growing on its side and when she got to the top she used her magical shoes to break the strong wooden bars of the window.

Cinderella and the girl climbed down the (vine) beanstalk.

They lived in the clouds happily ever after.

The end.
