Once upon a time, there was a pump named Pumper who lived in a village of pumps. One day, Pumper got tired of pumping water and decided to go on an adventure. He started to jump and bump along the way until he came across a big dump.
As he was exploring the dump, he noticed a clump of dirt that looked like a plump little hill. Pumper climbed to the top and found a stump.
Pumper was so excited and thought to himself, "I can jump off this stump and see how far I can fly!"
So, he took a deep breath and jumped with all his might, but instead of flying, he landed with a slump.
But Pumper didn't give up, he tried again and again, determined to fly. And finally, on his fourth attempt, he flew higher than ever before!
He flew over the village and all the other pumps cheered. From that day on, Pumper was known as the flying pump and was loved by everyone in the village.
The end.
