Sam

One day, a little boy named James was sitting at home. Now, he was doing some drawing. He really liked to draw. He'd been drawing all kinds of things for the afternoon, but as he was drawing, all of a sudden, he felt like he was being watched. He started to look around to try and work out what was going on, and when he looked around behind him, in the window was two chimpanzees.

James

Ah!

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 1

You're really good at that drawing,

Sam

said one of the chimpanzees.

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah, really good. Hey, you should try our very special Texta.

James

What?

Sam

said James, as he went over to the window. The chimpanzees passed through a Texta. He looked at it.

James

What colour is it?

Sam

said James. He couldn't tell because it seemed kind of almost see-through but sparkly on the inside at the same time.

Chimp Brother 2

Just try and see,

Sam

said one of the chimpanzees.

James

O-okay,

Sam

said James. So he took the Texta back over to his piece of paper and he started to draw. But for some reason, he couldn't see anything that he was drawing.

James

Um, I don't think it's working, Mr. Chimpanzee.

Chimp Brother 2

Oh, don't call me Mr. Chimpanzee. That's my dad's name.

Chimp Brother 1

Ha ha. Yeah, we're the Chimp Brothers.

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah. *fart noise*

Sam

said the Chimp Brothers.

James

Um, well, hi, Chimp Brothers, but your um your Texta doesn't seem to work.

Chimp Brother 1

Yes it do-oes.

James

No, no, it doesn't. I've I've been drawing on the paper and nothing's showing up.

The Texta Turns Bed Into Car

Chimp Brother 1

That's coz our Texta is not made for paper.

James

What?

Sam

said James.

James

What's it made for then? Do I need a canvas?

Chimp Brother 1

No, not a canvas.

James

Um, well, what's it for?

Chimp Brother 1

It's for drawing on THINGS!

James

Um,

Sam

said James.

James

I don't think you're meant to draw on things.

Chimp Brother 1

Well, that's what this Texta is for. Ha, I'll show ya.

Sam

One of the Chimp Brothers climbed in through the window into the room where James was drawing.

Chimp Brother 1

Alright, pass me the Texta.

James

Okay,

Sam

said James. So the chimp took the Texta off him and looked at James' bed.

Chimp Brother 1

Hmm. That's a pretty cool bed, but I feel like it would be better as a race car.

James

What?

Sam

said James. The chimpanzee took the Texta and he drew wheels on the side of James' bed.

Chimp Brother 1

Alright, I think it's ready. Hang on, nah, it needs a steering wheel too.

Sam

So he drew a steering wheel on the front of the bed.

Chimp Brother 1

Alright, jump in.

James

What?

Sam

said James.

James

What is going on?

Chimp Brother 2

I'm coming,

Sam

said the other chimpanzee, climbing through the window. He jumped onto James' bed, and there were two chimpanzees sitting there.

Chimp Brother 1

Come on, James, let's go.

James

Go?

Sam

said James.

James

What do you mean go?

Chimp Brothers

Jump in!

Sam

they said. So James jumped into his bed as well.

James

This is very strange,

Sam

said James. Then the chimpanzee pressed a button that he had drawn on the side of James' car. Vroom br-br-br-br-br-broom!

Racing Stripes And Road Fun

James

Um, why's my bed making noise?

Chimp Brother 1

Because we turned it into a car with the Texta.

Chimp Brother 2

Ha ha yeah, let's go.

Sam

They started to drive.

Chimp Brother 2

Oh, hang on, I got this, bro.

Sam

One of the chimpanzees jumped out of the car, grabbed the Texta, and he drew a door in the side of James' wall.

James

Don't draw on the walls, I'll get in trouble,

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 2

It's okay, we need a hole in the wall.

James

A hole?

Sam

said James. With that, the door opened, and there was a big enough gap for the car to drive out.

James

What is going on?

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 1

I told you our Texta still worked.

James

Um, o-okay,

Sam

said James.

James

Hey, mummy moo, I think I'm going for a drive with some chimpanzees,

Sam

he called out. His mum stuck her head in the room.

James' mummy

Okay, James, have fun,

Sam

she said.

Chimp Brother 1

See ya!

Sam

Nyeow! The car drove straight out the door in the side of James' room.

James

How- how did you do that?

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 1

I told you it's a special Texta. You can draw all kinds of things to make extra things add on to other things.

James

Uh, that sounds a little bit confusing,

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 2

Well, I think we better make this car a bit faster. Hang on, I'm gonna draw some racing stripes.

James

Um, what's that gonna do?

Chimp Brother 2

Oh, racing stripes always make cars go faster.

Rocket Bin And First Flight

Sam

He drew two lines down the middle of James' bed, and all of a sudden- Mroooow! the car became a lot faster.

James

This is so much fun!

Sam

said James.

James

Can- can I have a turn at driving?

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah, but, uh, why don't you also have a turn at drawing?

James

Oh yeah,

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 2

Come on, let's make you a car. Have a look, see if there's anything you could see you think you could turn into a car.

Sam

James looked as they were driving along, and then he saw it.

James

That one, right there, stop!

Sam

Urrrrrrr! The chimps stopped the car.

Chimp Brother 1

Haha, are you are you looking at that?

James

I am,

Sam

said James. Out the front of one of the houses was a rubbish bin.

James

Can I have the Texta, please?

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 2

Sure,

Sam

said one of the Chimp Brothers and threw it to him. He caught it and raced over to the rubbish bin. First of all, he drew some wheels on the other side. Then he added some controls on the front. And then he drew something very big at the back.

Chimp Brother 1

What's that?

Sam

said one of the Chimp Brothers.

James

You'll see,

Sam

said James. He climbed into the seat that he'd drawn on the rubbish bin, and then he pressed a button. PCCCCCCCCCHHHEW!

Chimp Brothers

Whoa!

Sam

said the Chimp Brothers.

Chimp Brother 1

Is that car rocket-powered?

James

It is,

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brothers

Let's go,

Sam

said the Chimp Brothers. So the chimps stayed in James' bed and started to drive along the road, and James started to drive his new rocket-powered rubbish bin. Wsh-woosh nyeeeeeow mreeeow pwshh! As they raced off down the road, they were having so much fun.

James

What else could we do with this Texta?

Sam

said James.

James

There's so many things!

Bedacopter Takes To The Sky

Chimp Brother 2

Throw it to me!

Sam

yelled one of the Chimp Brothers from the other car. So James threw the Texta across to them, and then they sped in front of James, and then he started dragging the Texta on the ground behind them.

James

What's he doing?

Sam

said James. Before he realised, James noticed that there was now a jump right in front of his rocket car.

James

What are you doing?

Sam

said James. The chimp quickly flicked the Texta over his head back to James. James caught it as his car lifted into the air.

Chimp Brother 2

Draw some wings!

Sam

yelled one of the Chimp Brothers. So James quickly drew wings on the side of his rubbish bin and-

James

I'm flying!

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brothers

Hooray!

Sam

yelled the Chimp Brothers.

Chimp Brother 1

Drop us the Texta, we'll come join ya.

James

Okay,

Sam

said James. So he carefully flew his car over the top of the bed that the Chimp Brothers were driving, and he dropped the Texta down to them. One of the Chimp Brothers caught it and began to draw.

James

What's he drawing?

Sam

thought James. As he watched, all of a sudden there was a giant set of propellers coming out the top of the bed.

Chimp Brother 1

I've turned it into a bedacopter.

Chimp Brother 2

Ha ha ha! Good one, bro. *fart noise*

Sam

The Chimp Brothers took control and the bed started to lift in the air like some kind of strange-looking helicopter. As they were flying around through the sky together, they were having a wonderful time.

Chimp Brother 1

Hey, what's that over there?

Sam

said one of the Chimp Brothers. They looked, and off in the distance they could see sirens and all kinds of things going on.

James

Let's go see,

Sam

said James.

James

Come on this way!

Jet Packs and Slides

Sam

The Chimp Brothers and James flew their flying objects across the sky over towards where all the sirens were. When they arrived, they noticed there was a whole bunch of people standing and looking up at one of the buildings.

James

What's going on?

Sam

called James from his flying rubbish bin.

Bystander

Um,

Sam

said one of the people.

Bystander

Wha-what are you driving?

James

Oh, never mind,

Sam

said James.

James

What's happening here?

Bystander

Oh, well, that building, see, there's someone stuck up there. They they they were inside that room, but then all of a sudden the doors locked and nobody could get it from the inside, and now they can't get out.

James

Oh,

Sam

said James.

James

I wonder. Do you think we could help?

Chimp Brothers

Yeah!

Sam

said the Chimp Brothers.

Chimp Brother 2

Let's do it!

Sam

So they flew up to the window where the person was stuck inside.

Stuck person

Help! Help!

Sam

They were calling.

James

Don't worry,

Sam

said James.

James

We'll we'll get you out of there in no time.

Chimp Brother 1

What are you gonna draw, James?

James

Um, hang on, I think I need to do something else first.

Sam

He grabbed the Texta off one of the Chimp Brothers and he started drawing on his own back.

Chimp Brother 2

What are you drawing?

Sam

They realised what James had drawn when he lifted up out of the rubbish bin with a rocket pack on his back.

Chimp Brother 1

You've created a jet pack!

James

Yeah, and it's gonna help me float so that I can do better drawing.

Chimp Brother 2

Good idea.

Sam

James then started to draw something from the side of the building all the way down. He drew and he drew and he added all kinds of fun little details until-

Chimp Brother 1

Is that a slide?

Sam

said one of the Chimp Brothers.

James

Yeah, it's a wiggly swirly slide,

People Cannon and Getting Home

Sam

said James. They looked. It looked like so much fun. Then James drew a ladder down from the side as well. Then he went to the window where the person was stuck, and he drew a big circle. The circle opened up into a door.

James

Alright,

Sam

said James.

James

Do you want to be the first to try the slide?

Stuck person

You've saved me!

Sam

said the person inside.

James

Yeah, and now you get to try the slide. Come on!

Stuck person

Al-alright,

Sam

the person jumped into the slide.

Stuck person

Whee!

Sam

Zhoo!

Stuck person

Wow! Nyah-way-yow!

Sam

It was so much fun.

Chimp Brother 2

I want a turn of that!

Sam

said one of the Chimp Brothers. They quickly parked the bed down at the bottom and started to climb up the ladder. And they went down the slide as well.

Chimp Brothers

Yahoo, yeay, yow! Whoa! This is amazing!

James

Yeah!

Sam

said James.

James

My turn next.

Sam

He turned off his jetpack and jumped in the slide.

James

Wheyow!

Sam

All the people watching thought it looked like so much fun, they should join in as well. And there they were. James, the chimpanzees, and all the people climbing up the ladder, going down the wiggly slide right to the bottom and then going up once more. They had so much fun.

Chimp Brother 1

Hey, hey James, I think we've had a lot of fun. W-w-w-we better get you back to your place.

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah, and we need a quick way to get there. Hang on, I've got an idea. Hold still.

Sam

One of the chimpanzees grabbed the Texta and started drawing very, very quickly.

James

What is that?

Sam

said James.

Chimp Brother 2

I've made a people cannon.

James

A people cannon?

Sam

said James.

James

How does it work?

Chimp Brother 2

Um, well I don't really know. I just drew it, so let's try.

James

Um, I'm not sure that I want to try.

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah, you do. It'll be fun. Haha!

Sam

One of the Chimp Brothers picked up James and popped him inside the cannon.

Chimp Brother 1

Alright, James. Hang- oh, hang on, we better draw a helmet on him first.

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah, good idea.

Sam

They drew a helmet on James' head. Then they aimed the cannon.

Chimp Brother 1

I'm pretty sure his house is this way.

James

What? You're pretty sure?

Chimp Brother 1

Oh, actually, make it very pretty sure.

James

That's not a good ratio!

Chimp Brother 1

Don't worry. Um, yeah, oh, it is this way. Hang on.

Sam

He twisted the cannon a tiny bit more.

Chimp Brother 1

Ready, ai- Oh, see you later, James!

James

Uh, bye!

Sam

he said.

Chimp Brother 1

Fire!

Sam

The cannon blasted him into the air. He went sailing through the sky.

James

This isn't the direction of my house!

Sam

he called.

James

Oh hang on, I've still got my jet pack.

Sam

So he turned his jet pack on and he waved to the chimpanzees as he blasted all the way back home. As he flew down and landed in his front yard, his mum was there waiting.

James' mummy

Um, James,

Sam

she said,

James' mummy

how did you fly in and where did you get that jet pack from?

James

Well,

Sam

said James,

James

I don't think you'd believe me, even if I told you.

Sam

And that is the end of the story.

Chimp Brother 2

This episode is brought to you by Chimp Brother Te- Hey bro, where did we get this Texta?

Chimp Brother 1

Oh, I can't remember.

Chimp Brother 2

Um, well, how are we gonna sell them if we can't remember where we got them?

Chimp Brother 1

Uh, I don't know.

Chimp Brother 2

Uh, maybe we'll draw some more of them?

Chimp Brother 1

Yeah, good idea. Alright, we'll draw some more and we'll get back to you. But in the meantime, we hope you're enjoying Silly Stories for Kids. This has been us, the Chimp Brothers.

Chimp Brother 2

Yeah. *fart noise*

Sam

And me, Sam. We'll see you soon!
