Spinni the Spider and His Harmless Venom

Once upon a time, there was a spider named Spinni. Spinni lived in a forest and loved to spin webs all day long. One day, Spinni saw a prey and tried to catch it with his venom-filled fangs. But every time he tried to bite the prey, he realized that his fangs were too short and his venom was harmless.

Spinni was so sad that he couldn't catch his prey that he cried. His tears fell on his fangs and suddenly, he had a sense that his fangs were growing longer. Spinni was so happy that he started jumping up and down. He tried to bite his prey again but this time, his fangs were so long that he accidentally swallowed the prey whole.

Spinni was so full that he could barely move. But then he heard a noise and realized that the prey was still alive inside him. The prey started tickling Spinni from the inside, making him laugh and laugh until he finally burped. The prey flew out of Spinni's mouth and ran away.

Spinni learned that sometimes, being harmless is better than having venom-filled fangs. And from that day on, Spinni never tried to catch another prey again.
