Night of the Giant Everything (2011)
“My back slid down the side of the bedspread.
WHUMMP.
I landed on my knees and fell face forward into the shag rug.
My breath rushed out in a whoosh. I bounced once, then rolled onto my back, choking and wheezing.
A few seconds later, I pulled myself to my feet. I moved my arms up and down and bent my knees. Testing everything out. No broken bones.
The shag rug saved my life. Now I had pieces of white lint all over the front of my silvery jumpsuit. But I didn’t care. I was in one piece, ready fo...r the next part of my journey.
A difficult task—climbing down the stairs.
I walked past my old sneakers in the middle of the hall. I wished I could wear them. My new plastic puppet shoes were too tight and really pinched my toes.
I stopped at the top of the stairs and looked down. The stairs were steep and stretched straight down, like a deep cavern. At the bottom, I could see the mop and water pail I had tripped over before.
No way I could step down the normal way. My feet just wouldn’t reach.MoreLess
