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.

Hello friends, It's mister Jim and welcome back to Kids Short Stories. If this is your first time, welcome to the family. My name is mister Jim and me my wife and our three kids. We live in South Carolina and we love story times so much. You see, parents, I know exactly how challenging it can be to manage screen time, and that is why we do these stories. You see kids all around the world sending ideas. You can go to kidshortstories dot Com to send me your idea and maybe I'll turn it into an awesome adventure like today's story comes to us from Jet. Hey, Jet, he sent me a really crazya idea about a story about him building a tornado machine with a t Rex, and I'm about to turn it into an awesome adventure. Are you guys ready for today's story? Me too? Let's go. Hey, Timmy, can you hand me that tool over there? Ok? Here it is Timmy handed Jet his special tool that he was needed, and Jet was able to complete his amazing invention. WHOA wait, what is going on? Yeah? Jet is a kid inventor. He has an invention room where he likes to build all kinds of machines and new creations. Well, and Timmy is his uh sidekick, his helper. But his helper is not like a normal helper. It's actually not a kid. Timmy's actually a t Rex. Yeah, like a real t Rex. Well, it started out as a toy that Jet had. He had a Dino toy, and he made an invention that he could make any toy come to life, and Timmy was his first toy that he brought to life. Oh boy, Jet, so what exactly does this gonna what is this gonna do? Well, Timmy, this is a tornado machine. A tornado machine. Why in the world, why would you want to make tornadoes? Well, it's actually I'm trying to learn how to turn off tornadoes. Oh, I see what Jet's trying to do. Do you guys know what a tornado is. Yes, it's a pretty big, scary thing that comes from a very big, big storm. They're very unusual, but sometimes a very big storm makes a tornado, and that tornado is a big spinning ball of wind. It would be nice if they had some kind of off button, but they don't. Well wait a second, maybe that's what Jet is working on. You see, Timmy said Jet, I'm trying to turn learn how to turn off tornadoes. But in order for me to do that, I have to create the tornado and then I can turn it off. Does that make sense? Oh well, if you say so, I trust you. Said to me. Timmy didn't always understand the inventions that were going on because he was just a t rex. T Rexes don't have as big of brains as people do, but he was still a really good helper for Jet. All right, let's see how it works. Three two one. As Jet pushed the big red button, a tornado started to grow. It was just a small tornado, about two feet tall. So it was just like a practice one. It's really smart to start with something small if especially if you're testing with tornadoes, because I think a two foot tornado, uh is not going to cause much damage. It might, you know, mess up your crans, but uh, it's not gonna knock over any trees. All right, great, it's working, said Jet. Now I gotta see if this remote will turn it off. He pointed the remote that was specially calibrated to turn off tornadoes. Here we go, click, and just like that, the little tornado just disappeared. I did it, shouted Jet. Oh boy, I don't know what that means, but great job, shouted Timmy the t Rex. This is awesome. You see now, if we're able to turn off tornadoes, then all the storms will be able to turn them off before they cause any big damage. I have to show this to Weatherman Brad. Let's go. Weather Man Brad was the weatherman that lived by Jet, and Jet was so excited to show this amazing creation. All right, Timmy, you can you grab all the things and meet me at the cornfield. Okay, okay, I'll meet you there, said Timmy. Jet had to go pick up Weatherman Brad so they could go over to the cornfield and test out this new torn NATO stopper. As Timmy was starting to set up all the machines in the cornfield, he was having a hard time because he had very short arms.
Oh man, I really wish that I had longer arms. Are so hard to reach the shhh uh Oh what did I just press?
Oh no, Timmy accidentally turned on the tornado machine onto maximum power. Dun duntun. Immediately a ginormous tornado started forming. Oh I gotta tell Jet. But before Timmy the t Rex was able to get out of there, the tornado sucked him up. Oh no, it's not even worse. It's a t Rex tornado. Oh as Timmy, he was being swept around and around and around and around inside the tornado. He was getting very dizzy. Oh no, I'm also very hungry. Oh my goodness, I cannot imagine a real life t Rex tornado, can you? That would be uh the craziest thing ever. Well, pretty soon Jet's tornado alarms started going off. Beep, beep, beep. What what is going on? Hold on, Weatherman, Brad, I gotta go fix something. What is going on is that there's a tornado headed for the city, said Weatherman Brad. Jets started running as fast as he could towards the tornado. Whoa, that is a brave kid. The tornado had made it to the city, and oh no, it's headed right for the donut store. Donut started going everywhere, and Timmy started chomping. He couldn't help himself. He loved donuts so much, and as the donuts were flying through the air, Timmy ate all of them. Oh racious, delicious, There's the best thing I've ever been on. Somehow, this terrifying tornado has actually turned into something that Timmy is having fun with Oh dear. Jet ran as fast as he could towards the tornado and pointed to the remote directly at the tornado and clicked off MM. Instantly, the tornado disappeared, and Timmy came crashing down on the ground with his mouth completely full of donuts. Timmy, are you okay?
Well?
It was very delicious. And then as Jet looked up in the sky he saw it's raining donuts. Look out. He took cover under a tree, but Timmy just opened his mouth and gobbled up some more donuts. Everybody in the city came out for the donut party. It continued to rain donuts the rest of the day. Wow, what an awesome, crazy day. Wouldn't it be pretty awesome if it rained donuts in your town? I wish it rained donuts in my town. Well, I think I have to invite Jet and his t Rex friend over and maybe they can make it rain donuts. Well, actually, Jet, great job you figured out how to turn off tornadoes. That is such an amazing job and an amazing invention. Wow, we are all thankful to Jet and his sidekick, Timmy the t Rex the end. Great job you listened all the way to the end and you know what time it is. It's time for kids shout out.
