The Story of the Worm and the Dirt Cake

Once upon a time, in a lush green garden lived a mischievous worm named Willy. Willy loved to play pranks on all the other creatures in the garden, but his favorite trick was to burrow into the soil and make it look like he disappeared.

One day, the creatures in the garden were having a potluck, and each one was bringing a dish to share. When it was Willy's turn, he was stumped. He didn't know how to cook, but he didn't want to be left out of the fun.

Then, he remembered his favorite dessert - Dirt Cake! He had tasted it at a picnic once, and it was delicious. He knew he could make it look like real dirt, and all the creatures in the garden would love it.

Willy quickly got to work, gathering all the ingredients he needed and following the recipe. And, just as he had hoped, when the creatures in the garden saw the Dirt Cake, they were amazed. It looked just like real dirt! But when they took a bite, they were even more amazed. It was the most delicious dessert they had ever tasted!

Willy was a hero! The creatures in the garden couldn't stop talking about his Dirt Cake, and from that day on, he was known as the best cook in the garden. And every time they had a potluck, Willy would make his famous Dirt Cake and make everyone smile.
