Once upon a time there was a young boy named Timmy. One day, Timmy went on a walk in the woods and came upon a wiggly worm. Timmy expected the worm to just crawl away, but to his wonder, the worm spoke to him!

The worm said, "Hi Timmy, I bet you never expect to see a talking worm like me!" Timmy was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a minute. The worm continued, "I can see the wonder in your eyes, let me show you something even more amazing." And with that, the worm wiggled its way up Timmy's arm and onto his shoulder.

The worm then whispered in Timmy's ear, "Close your eyes and make a wish." Timmy closed his eyes and wished for a cookie. When he opened his eyes, he saw a big, warm, delicious cookie sitting on a nearby log. Timmy was so excited that he took a big bite out of the cookie.

The worm then said, "You see Timmy, when you have a friend like me, anything is possible." Timmy and the worm quickly became the best of friends and had many more adventures together, always expecting the unexpected and wondering what would happen next.

The end.
