Once upon a time, there was a BAT who loved to play jokes on his friends. One day, he saw a CAN and thought of a great idea. He filled the CAN with jellybeans and told the CAT to shake it. When the CAT opened the CAN, the jellybeans flew everywhere! The CAT was so surprised, she started to chase the BAT, but he was too quick for her.

Next, the BAT went to a MAT where a group of RATS were having a picnic. He told them he had a special surprise for them, so they all gathered around. Suddenly, the BAT pulled out a HAT and put it on the MAT. When he tipped the hat over, a shower of jellybeans fell out, covering the RATS! They all laughed and had a great time.

Finally, the BAT went to see a MAN who was sitting under a tree. The BAT told the MAN about all of his pranks and the MAN couldn't help but laugh. So, the BAT filled the MAN's hat with jellybeans and put it on his head. When the MAN stood up, the jellybeans spilled all over him, making him look like a giant jellybean!

The end.
