Once upon a time, in a small room with sunny windows, it began. Lily was stuck. Her desk was now a mountain of homework, and she didn't know how to start. She yawned, wishing she could play outside instead.
As her eyes fluttered shut, her room sparkled with magic. The Homework Mountain grew and stretched! Now a real mountain, it had colorful trees made of math problems and rivers of glittering spelling words.
Lily met a friendly pencil named Peter. 'I'm here to help!' said Peter. Together, they climbed a tree, solving math problems as they went. Every right answer was a step up!
At the top of the tree, they found crayons that whispered history dates. Every time Lily remembered one, they cheered, and a branch turned into a slide of shimmering paint.
Weee! The slide took them to a lake of stories. Each wave told a tale, and Lily listened, learning new reading skills. She hopped on word-lily-pads across the water.
Now at the foot of Homework Mountain, they faced the biggest challenge: a cave of science. Inside were puzzle rocks, and when Lily solved them, the rocks sang about the stars and planets.
With all the puzzles solved, the Homework Mountain became a friendly giant. He lifted Lily and Peter up and said, 'Great job!’ And just like that, they were back at Lily's desk, with all the homework done.
