There was a bear and a wolf who are best friends. They go to the market together, they have glee and fun together. They get 2 hot dogs from a shop next to our house. They borrowed our neighbour’s car and drove to the woods because they know how to drive.

The bear tasted the hot dog and it was so hot because it’s got chili. The bear threw it away and felt sad because he likes hot dogs. The bear says to the wolf “give me your hot dog now, please”. Wolf says “ok”. He gives it to him and the bear takes a bite. Bear says “ho ho hot” and threw it away.

The bear was happy because he had the car to drive back to the store. The bear said to the shopkeeper “can i have a ketchup hot dog instead of chili hot dog”. Shopkeeper says “of course you can have it”. He takes the bread, puts the sausages in and adds ketchup. Then the bear took a bite and said “that was delightful”.

The wolf said to the shopkeeper “can i have chili hot dog”. The shopkeeper said “of course”. Shopkeeper got the bread, put the sausage and put chili sauce. The wolf took a bite and said “delightful”.

The wolf was feeling sad because the bear threw his hot dog. He said to the bear “I feel sad because you thew my hot dog”. The bear said “sorry”.

They drive back to the woods, picked up the dirty hot dogs and cleaned because those one were more tastier and there no more of that hot dog in the shop. so they picked up the dirty one, washed it and ate.

THE END

If you’ve found your way here, it’s probably because you could use a little extra sunshine in your inbox.

This newsletter is a very special partnership between a four-year-old creator (writing under the pen name Genevieve) and her mum, who acts as the typist, editor, and tech support.

How This All Started

The spark for this entire project came about in a pretty unexpected way. Genevieve was sitting with me while I was watching a video by Sharran Srivatsaa about the "millionaire mindset" and the principles of wealth and creativity that parents can teach their kids.

Taking inspiration from the video, I turned to her and asked her about her own talents, and what she wanted to do with them. Without missing a beat, she told me she has a special skill for writing stories and painting, and that she wanted to share them with the world to make people feel joy.

To be honest, this isn't the first time her mind has traveled down this path. She’s been brewing up business ideas for a while now! Before this, she came up with a plan to set up a home nail salon (with me as her primary customer, of course), tried her hand as a clothing designer, and wanted to sell stickers. Her goals back then were simple: buy toys and sweets for other kids, and save up enough money to buy the tools to build a robot that can feed the homeless.

When a four-year-old combines that level of entrepreneurial drive with a heart that big, you don't say no. You just open up a laptop and help them get to work.

How This Works

Every week, Genevieve will sit down and dictate a brand-new story straight from her imagination. I will type them out word-for-word, keeping her exact, unique voice intact. We will also include digital scans of her original drawings and illustrations to go along with them.

We are using a pen name to keep her safe and private, but everything else about this business is 100% hers.

We are so incredibly happy to have you here. Thank you for helping a little storyteller bring a lot of joy to the world.

With imagination and smiles,

Genevieve (and her mum/Editor)
