About Mr. Jim:
Hi! I'm Jim Jacob, a South Carolina based creator. I started as a podcaster by accident. Our first real episodes on the internet were me trying to find a solution to help tell my sons stories as I was traveling for work. I recorded some stories and hoped that by uploading them to a podcast app, my wife and kids could have easy access to listen. What started as a fix for our family’s bedtime routine interruption has grown into a worldwide audience with hundreds of thousands of listeners. My wife Jocelyn and I have 3 kids and love inspiring others towards greater imagination and curiosity.

Just head of a kid short stories dot com. Send me your idea and maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure. Well, friends, are you ready for today's story? Oh? Me too? Let's go. Our story begins high up in the sky above the clouds. And you know what that stinky purple blimp?
Alright, purple ninchos?
I need plan?
I want very stinky breath like stinkiers in my already stinky breath.
You want to make an even stick here? Oh boy, yes, of course. Uh what is a stinky thing that you can think of?
Well?
Fish are pretty stik eh. Have you ever thought of getting a fish breath.
I love it.
Figure out where to give me stinky fish breath. I think that is a great way to spend my weekend.
If you know anything about doctor Stinky Breath, you have to know this one thing. He has never brushed his teeth, and that is why he asked the world's stinkiest of breaths. Oh dear, I can't even imagine adding fish into the equation. How bad that would smell. I think even the Purple Ninja's No, that's not a very good idea. Well, as they started working on a plan, Fielder was cleaning his fish tank. It was important to change out the water very often and so that the fish could breathe nice clean water. Ah. Yeah, if I was a fish, I would want to make sure that I had very clean water. Oh dear, don't splash on the floor.
Oh it's so heavy.
He was carrying the fish bowl over to the sink to dump out the water. Good thing, don't worry. He had already removed his pet fish and put them in a separate cup until they had the clean water, so he wasn't gonna dump his fish down the drain. Whew, that would be bad. Splash. Oh, that smells terrible, said Fielder. He was right, dirty fish water. It smells really bad, and some of it splashed on the floor, so he had to go get some paper towels to clean up that mess. All right, I gotta get this all clean, and then I'll get the pebbles and rocks all clean. Then he will have a perfectly clean fish bowl. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, there was a splat on the window outside.
Splat?
What was that? Said Fielder As he turned around and looked, he thought it was a bird that might have accidentally crashed into the window. Have you ever heard or seen a bird accidentally find to a window? Yeah, that can be really dangerous for birds. But it didn't really sound like that. Sounded more like splat, not like a knock. As he walked over to the window, he couldn't believe it. There was a ginor miss squid sticking on the window. Fielder knew that he had to call this into HQ as fast as possible. HQHQ, there's a squid on my window, he shouted. Sh Hey, Fielder, this is HQ. Uh come again, did you say you have a squid on your window? Over? Yes? Yes, a squid like with tchicals, legs from the ochin, and it looks like he has some kind of scuba mask. I don't know what's going on, but he's stuck on my window. It looks like he's trying to get inside. Help me, shouted Fielder. Sh this is unbelievable. You're the fifth agent to call the same thing in. It appears that squids are trying to steal people's fish. Uh, just protect your fish at all cost because that squid has got long arms and he's trying to grab those fish for some reason. Let us know if you need backup. Over and out, sh Fielder couldn't believe it. A squid was trying to steal his fish. He was not gonna let that happen. He loved his fish. Oh wait, they're still sitting in that cup over there. He turned on the sink to fill up the fish bowl again. Oh that sorry, guys, I kind of forgot about you. As he plopped them back into the fresh, clean water, all the fish were very happy. They almost even smiled. As he ran back to the window where the squid was stuck on outside, he looked outside and saw Purple Ninja, the purple ninja was running up and down the street in his neighborhood, and he had a whole bucket of squids that he was throwing at people's houses. Oh, there's even more of them. A Fielder didn't know what to do, but first he needed to calm down. Okay, what two?
Three?
He took three slow, big breaths, and that helped him calm down. All right, I gotta get my spy gear, especially my net blaster. Running out of time, I don't want that thing getting inside. Fielder ran to his room and to his closet where all the spy gear was. He grabbed his net blaster and was headed outside. He wanted to catch that squid before it snuck in a crack through the window. You know, those squids can be awfully sneaky slipping through little cracks in the window. You just don't want to let them get inside and steal your fish. He held up the net blaster and shouted, freeze, mister squid. The squid could not talk, but it turned around and looked almost like it understand what Fielder shouted. Shoo. As he blasted the net out, it grabbed onto the squid and brought it back down to the ground. Thankfully, Fielder lived close by to the ocean, so the rest of the afternoon, as he was catching all of those squids that the Purple Ninjas had launched out, he was able to bring them all back to the ocean. After a very busy afternoon, Feeler finally was done. He had caught all the squids in his area and had told all the other spies how to do the same in their neighborhoods. He came back inside and oh, my hands smell terrible. Oh this is really stinky. When he said stinky out loud, he realized, huh, I wonder if Doctor Stinky Breath was trying to get the fish for their stinkiness. That dirty cage I cleaned out was really smelly, so I bet that's why. He looked over to that sparkly clean new fish tank that his friends were swimming in, and he decided, I've got to protect you. There's no way that I can let doctor Stinky Breath catch my fish. I guess he's got to keep a close eye out for those flying squids launched out by Purple Ninja's looking to steal pet fish. If you have petfish, make sure that you keep them safe from those grabby squids that are looking to grab those fish right out of the tanks. Great job, Fielder, you saved the day and all of us from a very stinky, stinky mess. We could not have done this without you and your bravery the end. Great job, you listened all the way to the end. And you know what, Timm, it is. It's time for Kid Showed Out. So I want to say hey to Elina from Ontario, Millie from Waynfleet, Ontario, Joey from Alberta, Marisa from New Jersey, Alice from Nevada, Alex and Abbey from Minnesota, and Jasper and Marley from New York City. I'm so glad that you're all in the Kid Short Stories family and on the spy team. We could not stop that stinky doctor Stinky Breath and his crew without you, my friends. Will you have a sup berdue Ber Day and I will see you on our next adventure. Bye.
