Sample text from Short and Super Short Stories for Teens
Vespa sat looking at the scenery. The late afternoon sunlight streaming through the trees cast an orange glow on
everything. Yet, the river was bright blue. Vespa wondered if there could be any truth in what Granny had said.
No, it was impossible. She must be turning senile. There were mythological tales about humans who intermarried and traveled across the globe several thousand years ago.
But how was that possible? They were just silly stories to entertain babies. They had to be. Vespa knew she could not go to the Tustan industrial district, a mere 1000 miles away, or she would die of suffocation.
The air there was almost gray with smoke, but the people there had evolved to tolerate it. Their noses were hairy and their chests were huge.
