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.
Right now, I need you to smash the follow buttons so you don't.
Miss out on any of our awesome stories.
Well, today's story comes to us from Thomas. Hey, Thomas, he sent me an awesome idea for a story, and you can too. Just head over to kitshort stories dot com. Send me your idea and maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure. Are you guys ready.
For a story about a frozen asteroid that crashes? Here, me too, let's go.
It was a beautiful day and Thomas was playing in his backyard. He had been practicing a whole bunch of spy team drills. Yeah. You see, when you're on the spy team, you always gotta be working out and practicing the drills and practicing cool moves. And Thomas was very good at them all. But the reason that he was so good at them is because he practiced every day. How's a good workout, said Thomas as he was wiping the sweat off of his forehead. He had been practicing climbing trees, which that was super fun but really hard, And just then Thomas heard his walkie talkie spyby burd It's gonna be a message from HQ. He pressed the button and the message started to play. Thomas, this is HQ. We have been monitoring a frozen asteroid that has been heading towards planet Earth. It is about to crash in thirty minutes. We need you to be on location of where it crashes. There seems to be some unusual activity coming from it and we need someone to make sure that everything is okay. We will send you the coordinates right now. He received another message with all the coordinates. Wow, real frozen asteroid from space. That sounds dangerous and awesome, said Thomas. He raced up to his room to grab all of his spy gear and off he zoomed shore. His jet pack was super fast and he loved pushing the turbo button who It made him fly even faster through the clouds. It didn't take long when you're pushing the turbo button for him to get there to the location where the asteroid was supposed to land. Thankfully, it was far away from where people lived, so the asteroid wasn't going to crash in at anybody's house. But it was important for Thomas to be there just in case something crazy happened. What do you think is gonna happen? Do you think something crazy what the asteroid is about to happen? Or is it just going to be a normal asteroid crash? Well, I don't know if any asteroid crash is very normal. I've never seen one. That would be pretty awesome. Well, let's wait and see. Thomas knew it wouldn't be a good idea to stand exactly where the asteroid was going to crash, so he was standing up on a hill at a safe distance. Using his binoculars. He looked up at the sky and he could see it. It was very bright and had a long tail as it was zooming through the atmosphere. WHOA, that is so awesome. It was daytime, but it looked like a shooting star. But it was so bright you could even see it during the day. Five four three. It's about to crash.
Take cover.
Thomas dove behind some big boulders and boom as the asteroid crash onto earth, the whole ground shook, felt almost like an earthquake. WHOA, that was crazy. As he peeked his head out over from the boulders, he saw the asteroid sticking halfway into the ground. It had entered so fast and crashed so hard that it had made a huge hole in the ground, and most of the asteroid was sticking underneath the ground. All right, I gotta get down there fast and take some samples, said Thomas. He was running down the hill towards the asteroid when all of a sudden it started to glow. Wait, what's happening? And then a door opened. Wait a second, said Thomas. That is not an asteroid, it's some kind of spaceship. Ba As he reached for his radio to call into HQ to warn them that this was actually a spaceship, he grabbed his walkie and said HQ, HQ, come in.
This is Thomas over sh.
And as he was waiting for HQ's response, out flew what looked like was miniature flying.
Reindeer out of the spaceship. What Thomas, this is HQ, come in? What did you say about a spaceship over sh.
I don't know, Yes, this is Thomas, and I don't know what I'm looking at right now. We thought it was an asteroid, but it's actually some kind of spaceship. And the doors opened and out flew flying reindeer. They're small though, they're very small, but they're definitely flying reindeer. Sh All right, Thomas, we were not expecting that, so we're gonna need you to do some more research and let us know what you find over. Thomas carefully walked down the rest of the way towards the asteroid spaceship.
Hello.
Hello, my name is Thomas.
Are you flying reindeer?
Hello Thomas us we are flying wrongdre.
And solve the doll. Wait what, let's rula, sir?
We'll have Santa called for us and Shrehills backup.
Wrunglare you're kidding me, said Thomas.
No, we heard the Hilloa was.
Having a supplied song usler Ruth's wrong lure and he called for backup Solare. Thomas was having a hard time believing what he was seeing. This mission was supposed to be an asteroid mission, but it turned not only into a spaceship mission, but something to do with flying reindeer smaller than normal. They were about the size of a cat and Santa h Thomas was very confused. How in the world am I gonna explain all this to HQ. Well, well, don't hear that, Moms, But how relt fan Santa. Uh I've never been there, said Thomas. But I know you just go north. So if you just follow the direction north, I guess yeah, you'll get there, to the North Pole. But how are you gonna get there? It looks like your ship is destroyed. Oh don't worry about that. Remember Rolton fly rogers filer a lunge full of directions ball.
And just like that, all the ringdeer flew off towards Santa's workshop, heading north. Thomas couldn't believe it. He picked up his walkie called into HQ.
Sh HQ.
This is Thomas again. I don't even understand what I just saw. But yes, there are a flying reindeer headed north to help Santa, and they're already gone.
Sh wow, Thomas. That is definitely not what we are expecting you to find. But thank you for figuring that out for us. Glad to know that it was not an asteroid and it was actually just Santa culling for backup.
Uh.
Yeah, maybe we should send a team out there and give Santa a hand. Great job, Thomas, thank you over and out. Sh wow.
Great job, Thomas, you not only solved the mystery of this mysterious asteroid spaceship reindeer ship. But you also help the reindeer know how to get to Santa, because I guess he needs help. Wow. Well, I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens over the next couple of weeks. And as Santa is gonna be able to pull it all together in.
Time for Christmas.
Well hopefully these reindeer will be able to help him out with that. The end. Great job, you listened all the way to the end, and you know what tumm it is.
It's time for Kurd shout out.
I wanna say hey to Bailey from Illinois, Sam and Rocky from Winston Salem, North Carolina, Everley and Magnolia from Washington, Haven from Colorado, said from Hong Kong, Dara and Con from Ireland, and Oliver and Benji from Charleston, South Carolina.
