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.

Hey, friends, welcome back to Kids Short Stories. If this is your first time hanging with me, my name is mister Jim. Welcome to the family. Yes, mister Jim has a whole bunch of podcasts. We have this one here, we have Kids' Animal Stories and Biology Squad. So in your podcast app if you look for mister Jim, if you search for mister Jim, those podcasts will show up. And you don't want to miss out in any of our awesome stories. We do fifteen episodes a week between those three shows, so there's always something new to listen to. Well, are you ready for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go. It was a rainy day. As Wally was leaning up against the window and looking at the rain outside, he was feeling sad, not just because of the rain, but because he was moving today. As his nose wiped across the window, he just was very sad to leave everything here behind. Oh yeah, Wally is a dog and that's why his nose was rubbing on the window. And Wally the dog was moving very far away from where he lived right now. He was moving to London, London, England. Yes, it was a different country from where he lived. And he was very nervous about going to a new place and having to make new friends and go to new places, maybe even a new school, and there was a lot. Have you ever had to move before, Yeah, that could be a very exciting time because new things can be fun, but they can also feel a little sad to leave things behind, like to go to a new home. Can sometimes feel hard to make a new house feel like a home. And I think that's what our puppy friend Wally was fed. Oh, there's gonna be so many new things over there, and I'm kind of nervous to try and make new friends because you know, what if what if they're different? What if I'm different? What if they think I'm weird? And I don't know, but I guess I guess it's time. Wally had packed up his bags and he took a bus to the airport, got in the airplane, and flew across the ocean. This was a very long airplane flight, the longest one that he had ever been on, and the whole way there he was just worried. After several hours, the airplane landed down on the ground. Its wheels squeaked as it touched down on the ground, and the seeds bumped very loudly. Have you ever been in a plane that landed. Yeah, sometimes they can be a little bouncy as they land on the ground, but that's totally normal. Wally the puppy was a little nervous because it bounced and was very loud as the plane touched down on the ground, but he was very relieved to finally be out of the air. He grabbed his bags and walked down the steps to get off of the airplane. He looked around and realized, yes, this is a very different place than where I lived before. Wally was not sure which way to go. Everything looked new and looked confusing, and I guess I'll go this way. That's where everyone else is walking. Wally followed a whole crowd of people. I think they were going to the baggage claim area, you know, to get your larger bags. As he walked through the airport with a group of others that he thinks were on the same flight as him, they all came to a stop to wait at baggage claim and Wally was just standing there all by himself, but not for long. Hi there, oh, oh, oh, hello, Hi, what's your name? My name's Wally. Hi, Wally, my name's Finn. Have you ever come to London before, Finn asked no, I'm mmmm, this is my first time. I'm just moving here and you're moving here, shouted Finn. That's so amazing. We should totally be friends. I can show you around. Oh there's so many amazing things, red buses and big bridges and clarks and London is an amazing place, said Finn the Fox. Finn was so excited he started to run in circles with his big fluffy tail, bouncing into some others that were standing nearby. Oh I'm so sorry, sorry, sorry, I'm just so excited. I love making new friends. Wally the puppy was a little overwhelmed. Overwhelmed at the excitement of Finn the Fox, but he was also kind of happy, happy to not be alone anymore, and maybe Finn the Fox would actually be a good friend. Well. Over the next several minutes, Finn started to tell Wally even more and more of all the amazing things about London. So much talking, in fact, they almost missed their bags, but thankfully Wally reached out and grabbed his and Finn grabbed his as well. All right, So when you want to start right now, can I show you around? Please? Please, lead, lead, leads. Finn the Fox said he was very excited to make a new friend. Okay, yeah, I guess we can get started now. Wally didn't even really have time to remember that he he was once worried and scared about this new place. That's kind of the power of a good friend. Finding a good friend can change almost anything, and being a good friend is pretty magical. Well, the rest of the day, Finn the Fox showed Wally the Buppy the most amazing new things that Wally had ever seen. Ohen, over there, look at that giangnormous bridge, it's called the London Bridge. And oh, over there you see that big clock. It's called Big Ben. And wait, the red busses and the brads. We gotta get on the red buses. Come come with me. Wally laughed and followed along as they jumped on these big red double decker buses as they zoomed around the city. By the end of the day, Wally the Puppy was very tired. This had been one of the most amazing days of his life, and it started off as thinking it might be one of the scariest and the worstests, but all because Finn the Fox walked over to Wally and said hello. It started an amazing new friendship. You see, Wally and Finn would go on to be the bestest of best friends, a friend that Wally never would have met if he hadn't moved to London in the first place. They would go to school together, play together, make more friends together, and spend so much time together as best friends. Wow. What an awesome story and a great reminder that sometimes when you see someone that looks like they need a friend, maybe it's me or maybe it's you that should be that friend to them. Well, friends, if you see someone at school, or in the neighborhood or just around that needs a friend, I want you to be the one to walk over and say hello, just like Finn the Fox. The end, great job, you listened all the way to the ending. You know what time it is. It's time for kid shout out, So I want to say hey to Alexandra from Romania, Lachlann from British Columbia, Naomi from Virginia, Isaac from Hastings, Micah and Danny from New Jersey, and Remedy and no. Well from Atlanta, Georgia, I'm so glad that you are all on the spy team. We could not stop Doctor Stinky Breath and his crew without you, my friends. Well, you have a super duper day and I will see you on our next adventure. Bye.
