Once upon a time, there was a curious and adventurous buddy named Ben. One night, Ben wanted to bring his favorite book to read under the stars. But when he climbed up to his tree house, he realized that he had accidentally grabbed a book of magic spells.

As he started to read, strange things began to happen. Suddenly, he could choose anything he wished for and it would come true. He wished for a pile of candy and it appeared at his feet. He wished for a flying carpet and it materialized beneath him.

Excited by his new powers, Ben decided to go on a wild adventure. He flew to the moon, swam with mermaids, and even visited the bottom of the ocean. But as the night went on, Ben realized that he didn't have the power to control when the spell would stop.

Just as he was about to be turned into a frog, he wished for the spell to end. Suddenly, everything went back to normal and Ben found himself back in his tree house with his book of magic spells.

From that day forward, Ben made sure to always choose his books carefully before he climbed into his tree house to read at night!
