In the southern extremes on the island of Serendipity was a magical desert of silver sand. In the desert lived wonderful creatures -- camels with humps and wart hogs with bumps. Of special delight was an ostrich called Sniffles. Sniffles loved to run with the other ostriches, but more than running she loved to tell stories. The stories she told were little stories filled with big exaggerations. If she came upon a single purpled pansy in the dunes she would count it once, then twice, then thrice. Soon a single flower became a veritable meadow filled with purpled pansies. Her stories had become so filled with exaggerations that the truth was often lost in the telling of the story. And then, one day she really did experience a fantastical adventure. She tried to tell the story without lies or exaggeration, but none of the animals in the desert believed a single word that Sniffles said.
