Alphi Blows Bubbles

Alfi was in the garden blowingbubbles.

The bubbles were big round andhad all the colours of the rainbowin them.

Some of the bubbles flew high inthe air over the tree tops.

Some stayed close to the groundand bumped around the flowers.

Page 1

Alfi blew a stream of bubbles overthe daises.

Some of these bumped togetherand popped showering littleshower drops of water onto theflowers.

Page 2

Now sitting in one of the flowers,minding there own business,gathering nectar and pollen, weretwo large black and yellow bees.

The bees were being showered everynow and then with sudden bursts ofsoapy rain.

Just when they had gathered anarmful of pollen, splosh they were hitin the face with a sudsy drop ofwater, this made them drop all theirpollen over the flower.

The two bees were getting cross.

Page 3

Alfi was still running round thegarden enjoying himself, blowingthe bubbles, as the two bees lookedover the edge of the flower to seewhat was going on.

" Now that." said the first bee. " Isthe problem."

The answer to the problem theyboth thought was to remove thebubbles.

Together the bees decided to burstall the bubbles with there littlepointy sting.

Zooming out from the flower the beesrushed around the garden, bursting asmany bubbles as they could find. It washard work.

Alfi, far from being sad at seeing hisbubbled being burst, thought that it wasfun and started blowing more bubbles.

The bees were buzzing around like wildthings, while Alfi was blowing more andmore bubbles.

The buzzy bees got so out of breath theyhad to go back to a large daisy for a restand a cup of nectar.

Page 5

Alfi was getting excited and wasblowing bigger and biggerbubbles.

One bubble was so big it wouldnot let go of the bubble stick.

As Alfi would not let go of thebubble stick either, the bubbleslowly lifted Alfi into the air.

Page 6

The bees looked over the edge ofthe sunflower where they weresitting.

They saw Alfi rising into the air.

" Now he thinks he's a bee." saidthe first bee.

" We can't have that, he's afterour honey." said the second bee.

Page 7

The bees flew over to where Alfiwas hovering just above thePansies.

" Look here." said the first beeflying just in front of Alfi.

" We are not having you flyinground pinching our honey. Uphere is for bees, little boys belongdown on the ground."

" I know." said Alfi. " But I'mbeing kidnapped by this bigbubble."

Page 8

" That is serious." said the second bee.

" Shall we pop the bubble." said thefirst bee to Alfi.

" No no." shouted Alfi " I will fall. "

" We could sit on top of the bubble."said the second bee. " The extra weightof us may push Alfi down back to theground."

" Good idea. " said the first bee sothey both flew to the top of the bubbleand sat down.

Page 9

The two bees looked around, itwas nice on top of the bubble, thesun was shinning and there wasquite a good view.

They could see their hive in thenext field where they lived.

Page 10

Far from making the bubble godown however, the warmth of thesun was making the bubble risehigher up into the air.

The bees flew down again towhere Alfi was hanging on to thebubble stick and told him aboutthe sun warming the bubble.

Page 11

" What we need. " said Alfi. " Is afriendly little black cloud to cover upthe sun. "

" Not much chance of that. " said thefirst bee. " There is not a cloud in thesky. "" Not in the sky maybe. " said thesecond bee. " But I know where I canfind one. " Saying that, the secondbee flew off at top speed.

" What is he talking about. " said Alfito the first bee.

" I have not got the faintest idea. "said the first bee.

Page 12

In the distance there was a largebuzzing sound, the sound gotlouder and louder.

Suddenly over the hedge therecame a large black cloud, the cloudwas buzzing and buzzing.

" One black cloud. " said thesecond bee, who was leading theblack buzzing cloud.

Page 13

The cloud, of course, was made up ofhundreds and hundreds of bees.

The second bee had flown back to thehive and brought everyone back withhim to help Alfi.

The bees circled round above Alfiand the bubble, stopping the sunlight.

As expected when the sun stoppedshinning on the bubble the air insideof the big bubble cooled down andthe bubble got heavier.

Page 14

Slowly Alfi and the bubble sankdown until they were justtouching the tops of some bigyellow flowers.

Suddenly the bubble burst andAlfi was dropped into the middleof the flowers.

The flowers were full of pollen anda large cloud of this pollen roseinto the air.

Alfi gave a big sneeze.

Page 15

All the bees zoomed down tocollect up the pollen and take itback to the hive.

When all the bees had gone Alfifound himself left on his ownsitting in the middle of the flowersclutching his bubble stick.

" Now that. " said Alfi."Was an adventure.

END

Secondly or possibly primarily, somewhere for my little cartoon characters to live. I have been adraftsman for many years and during idle moments and in meetings, especially in meetings, littlecharacters get doodled. These characters seem to take on a little life of their own and hang aroundin the mind until they eventually find a home in a story. They then seem to go away until the nextone comes along. These books and the original web site is somewhere to share these little cartooncharacters with. If they give anybody a little enjoyment then I am well pleased.

These original picture books are free to download, keep, copy, print and use quite freely withoutany restriction. Tony J Moon
