The Magical World Inside the Abandoned Refrigerator

 One day little Jimmy was out walking. He and his Daddy had been visiting Daddy's good friend Celene. Daddy had given Jimmy some money to go and buy a bag of lollies while he and Auntie Celene played.  Jimmy had cheerfully set out for the corner shop, coins jingling in his pocket. I wonder what sort of games Auntie Celene & Daddy will play, Jimmy thought as he walked past the nice ladies waiting on the street corner.

Jimmy had not ventured far when he passed an alleyway. Close to the entrance, leaning against a wall, he spied an old abandoned refrigerator. Being a curious child, Jimmy decided to investigate. He cautiously opened the refrigerator door and peered inside. It was dark and empty.

All of a sudden a gust of wind blew the refrigerator door shut. Jimmy tried to open the door bur it wouldn't budge no matter how hard he tried. Finally he sat down contemplating recent events. Upon reflection he felt a bit silly being distracted by an old abandoned refrigerator. The air was getting warmer. He felt tired and had begun to see vivid colours dancing about in front of him.  It really is a magical world inside here thought Jimmy as he drifted off to sleep...
