“You shouldn’t eat so many donuts. It’s not good for your health.
Do you know the saying: You are what you eat ” Later that night,I
had a dream. In the dream, I became a big donut and everyone tried
to eat me.
Jenny: Oh no! That’s awful.
Danny: Yeah! Then I woke up and I was scared. So, I decided to eat
more vegetables.
Jenny: Good for you, Danny!
