John was playing outside in the garden. He loved to slide down the tall slide, which made him squeal with delight. He would slide over and over again, until his clothes were covered with mud.
John ran to the nearby puddle, with a mischievous smile on his face. But as he was about to slide into it, he saw something he hadn't before. It was a huge, tall monster with huge arms, legs, and a big scary face.
John was terrified and wanted to run away. He scrambled up the tall slide and slid down it quickly, trying to get away from the monster. But the monster chased him and got closer. John was too scared to move.
But suddenly, the monster stopped and started to laugh. It wasn't a monster at all - it was his dad, who was wearing a costume! John was relieved and laughed along with his dad. They hugged each other, and John went back to playing in the puddle.
