Voice Over Coming Soon!

Once upon a time there was a little girl called Luciana Heartell. She was on the way to see her Best Friend Gloria Glowtell, when she decided to take a short cut through Neverland Forest.

It wasn't long before Luciana got lost.She looked around, but all she could see were trees. Nervously, she felt into her bag for her favourite toy, Mr.Cuddly, but Mr.Cuddly was nowhere to be found! Luciana began to panic. She felt sure she had packed Mr.Cuddly. To make matters worse, she was starting to feel hungry.

Unexpectedly, she saw a Hairy bear dressed in a pink bow disappearing into the trees.

"How odd!" thought Luciana.For the want of anything better to do, she decided to follow the peculiarly dressed bear. Perhaps it could tell him the way out of the forest.

Eventually, Luciana reached a clearing. She found herself surrounded by houses made from different sorts of food. There was a house made from carrots, a house made from fruit gums, a house made from humbugs and a house made from toffees.

Luciana could feel her tummy rumbling. Looking at the houses did nothing to ease her hunger.

"Hello!" she called. "Is anybody there?"

Nobody replied.Luciana looked at the roof on the closest house and wondered if it would be rude to eat somebody else's chimney. Obviously it would be impolite to eat a whole house, but perhaps it would be considered acceptable to nibble the odd fixture or lick the odd fitting, in a time of need.

A loud crack broke through the air, giving Luciana a fright. A Woodcutter jumped into the space in front of the houses. He was carrying a cage. In that cage was Mr.Cuddly!

R.I.P Cuddly

R.I.P

"Mr.Cuddly!" shouted Luciana. She turned to the Woodcutter "That's my toy!"

The woodcutter just shrugged.

"Give Mr Cuddly back!" cried Luciana.

"Not on your nelly!" said the woodcutter.

"At least let Mr Cuddly out of that cage!"

Before she could reply, three Hairy bears rushed in from a footpath on the other side. Luciana recognised the one in the pink bow that she'd seen earlier. The woodcutter seemed to recognise him too.

"Hello Big Bear," said the woodcutter.

"Good morning." The bear noticed Mr.Cuddly. "Who is this?"

"That's Mr.Cuddly," explained the woodcutter.

"Ooh! Mr.Cuddly would look lovely in my house. Give it to me!" demanded the bear.

The woodcutter shook his head. "Mr Cuddly is staying with me."

"Um... Excuse me..." Luciana interrupted. "Mr.Cuddly lives with me! And not in a cage!"

Big Bear ignored her. "Is there nothing you'll trade?" he asked the woodcutter

The woodcutter thought for a moment, then said, "I do like to be entertained. I'll release him to anybody who can eat a whole front door."

Big Bear looked at the house made from toffees and said, "No problem, I could eat an entire house made from toffees if I wanted to."

"That's nothing," said the next bear. "I could eat two houses."

"There's no need to show off," said the woodcutter. Just eat one front door and I'll let you have Mr.Cuddly."

Luciana watched, feeling very worried. She didn't want the woodcuter to give Mr.Cuddly to Big Bear. She didn't think Mr.Cuddly would like living with a Hairy bear, away from her house and all her other toys.

Eventually, Big Bear started to get bigger - just a little bit bigger at first. But after a few more fork-fulls of fruit gums, he grew to the size of a large snowball - and he was every bit as round.

"Erm... I don't feel too good," said Big Bear.

Suddenly, he started to roll. He'd grown so round that he could no longer balance!

"Help!" he cried, as he rolled off down a slope into the forest.

Big Bear never finished eating the front door made from fruit gums and Mr.Cuddly remained trapped in the woodcutters cage.

After a while, Average Bear started to look a little queasy. She grew greener...

   ...and greener.

Another woodcutter walked into the clearing. "What's this bush doing here?" he asked.

"I'm not a bush, I'm a bear!" said Average Bear.

"It talks!" exclaimed the woodcutter. "Those talking bushes are the worst kind. I'd better take it away before somebody gets hurt."

No! Wait!" cried Average Bear, as the woodcutter picked her up. But the woodcutter ignored her cries and carried the bear away under his arm.

Average Bear never finished eating the front door made from humbugs and Mr.Cuddly remained trapped in the first woodcutter's cage.

After five or six platefuls, Little Bear started to fidget uncomfortably on the spot.

He stopped eating toffees for a moment, then grabbed another forkful.

But before he could eat it, there came an almighty roar. A bottom burp louder than a rocket taking off, propelled Little Bear into the sky.

"Aggghhhhhh!" cried Little Bear. "I'm scared of heigh..."

Little Bear was never seen again.

Little Bear never finished eating the front door made from toffees and Mr.Cuddly remained trapped

"That's it," said the woodcutter. "I win. I get to keep Mr.Cuddly."

"Not so fast," said Luciana. "There is still one front door to go. The front door of the house made from carrots. And I haven't had a turn yet.

"I don't have to give you a turn!" laughed the woodcutter. "My game. My rules."

A Princess.' voice carried through the forest. "I think you should give her a chance. It's only fair."

"Fine," the woodcutter. "But you saw what happened to the bears. She won't last long."
