Land Without Winter

by Elliot Geisinger

This is the tale we wish to tell about giants, dragons and ogres a young prince and princess have to fell. With just spring, summer and fall, a 'Land Without Winter' mean no winter at all. Everyone wanted the privilege of living there, so it was only fair that no on was excluded, even giants, dragons and ogres included. But what had been forgotten, what made the rule so rotten, was that monsters, so much bigger than people, tall as the highest steeple, take up as much room as ten men at a desk and eat up more that all of the rest. When peope dared to complain, they'd get a look of disdain, and if they were unlucky, they'd end up as rubber ducky. This led to a situation that demanded a real new creation. Someone had to take a stand on how to get these monsters out of the land. Happily the grandson and granddaughter of the king volunteered to take a fling. Though young in years they had no fears and knew just what they had to do with the help of a friend or two.
