Starting point is 00:00:04 Let's do this! Thank you so much for tuning into today's story. Don't forget to rate and follow, so you never miss out on all the ryer's readers fun. Before we get into the story, do you want to know a fun fact? Did you know a black hole is a spot in space where gravity is incredibly strong? Nothing, not even light, can escape from a black hole once it gets too close. That's why they're called black holes. They're so dark and mysterious because no light can come out. Black holes are like giant cosmic mysteries that scientists study to learn more about the universe. Don't worry, though.
Starting point is 00:00:51 Black holes are very far away in space, like millions of light years from Earth, so we're safe here on our planet. Pretty cool, huh? Okay, story time. Today we are going to read A Pizza with Everything on It by Kyle Sheel. When your dad owns a pizza shop, you can have whatever kind of pizza you want. So when dad asks me what I'm hungry for, I said, give me a pizza with everything on it. Dad said, everything? I said everything.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Dad tossed the dough while I stirred the sauce. We put down three different kinds of cheese, then added a fourth, just to be safe. Cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, and the mysterious fourth cheese. We started with the basics, pepperoni, sausage, tomatoes, peppers, even those little mushrooms that look like noses. Dad said, perfect. But I said, no, Dad, I want a pizza with everything on it.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Dad ran across the street and came back with his arms full of groceries. Pickles, ice cream cones, boiled eggs, an apple, a bag of chips, an entire turkey. All of it went on the pizza. Dad said, perfect. But I said, no, Dad, I want a pizza with everything on it. Dad got a mischievous look in his eyes. I knew exactly what he was thinking. Everything, eh? Everything!
Starting point is 00:02:55 Everything! In a flash, Dad threw his rolling pin onto the pizza, followed by his chef's hat. I put the blender on top as Dad added a table and chairs. Books, pencils, and a notebook fell onto the pizza as I turned my backpack upside down. Dad said, perfect. But I said, no, dad, I want a pizza with everything on it. Dad said, I think we're going to need to take this outside. Dad rolled the pizza into the street as I I rode my bicycle up onto the toppings. Dad added a dog house, then a tree house, then a real house, then the White House.
Starting point is 00:03:49 But something was about to go terribly wrong. Perhaps it was the addition of the particle accelerator, or perhaps the weight of the pizza simply became greater than what the crust could bear. Whatever it was, it was bad. Just as Dad was pushing the wheelbarrel full of penguins to the top of the pizza, there was a loud pop. Then a crunch. Then we started to fall. Aye, the pizza began to collapse in on itself.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Everything was speeding towards the center of the pizza. I grabbed Dad's hand. Dad grabbed the crust. We held on for dear life. It's a pizza black hole, Dad shouted. Everything is being sucked in. Everything? I yelled back. Dad gulped. Everything. Dads are awfully strong, but black holes are stronger. Especially pizza black holes. I can't have.
Starting point is 00:05:07 on anymore dad yelled together we flew into the swirling pizza vortex then everything went black and everything stayed black as black as burnt pizza crust boom a pizza big bang the universe exploded and burst of toppings, everything was pizza. Dad and I were launched through a pizza galaxy and into our pizza solar system. We flew towards a pizza earth into our pizza town. We landed back at our pizza shop, or should I say, our pizza pizza shop. Dad looked at me. Perfect? He said a little unsure. Ficked.
Starting point is 00:06:16 The end. Don't forget to stick around to see if you can answer today's paying attention question. Before you go, do you think you can answer today's paying attention question? Dad rolled a wheelbarrel filled with animals onto the pizza. What type of animal did dad add to the pizza? If your answer was, Penguins, you did it! Great job! You sure were paying attention. I hope you enjoyed that story. I wonder what we're going to read next.
