One day, a boy named Tim went to the ocean with his mom. Tim loved the water and the sand. He played and splashed all day. Tim saw a big, blue bottle on the beach. He picked it up and opened it. A strange, purple cloud came out of the bottle. 
The cloud spoke, "I am a magic cloud! I can shrink things. Tell me what you want to shrink, and I will do it." Tim thought for a moment and said, "Shrink the ocean! I want to see all the fish." The cloud agreed and started to shrink the ocean.
As the ocean shrank, the fish had no place to swim. The fish were sad and scared. Tim felt guilty. He knew he made a mistake. The ocean was almost gone, and the fish were not happy. Tim asked the cloud to make the ocean big again, but the cloud said, "I can only shrink things, not make them big."
The ocean was now too small for the fish to live. Tim cried as he watched the fish struggle. His mom hugged him and said, "We must learn from our mistakes and be more careful next time." Tim felt very sad and guilty for what he had done. He wished he never found the magic cloud.
