One day, little Rumble the yeti woke up feeling very grumpy. His fluffy white fur was all messy, and his red scarf was too tight. "Hmph!" he said, stomping his tiny feet. As he walked to get his breakfast, his grumpy mood made his stomps so strong that the whole house began to shake! The chairs started to wobble. Suddenly, Rumble saw something strange. His grumpy stomping was so powerful that things were starting to turn upside down! First, his breakfast bowl flipped over. Then his favorite chair went flip-flop!
Rumble looked at the flipping furniture and giggled. His grumpy mood started to feel a bit better. He stomped again, even harder! STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! The table turned upside down! His toy box flipped over, and all his toys went flying into the air! Even his pet fish bowl started to spin around and around (but don't worry, his fish was having fun too). "Wee!" said Rumble, watching everything dance and flip. But then he heard a worried voice from next door. His neighbor, Mrs. Bird, was calling out because her nest was starting to wobble in the tree!
Rumble felt so excited by all the flipping and flopping that he couldn't stop! He kept stomping his little feet. STOMP! STOMP! STOMP! More and more things turned upside down! The trees in the yard started to bend and sway. The flowers in the garden popped out of the ground and danced in the air. Even the clouds in the sky started to spin like silly cotton candy! But then something BIG happened. Rumble's stomping got so strong that the whole mountain began to shake! The snow at the top started to wiggle and jiggle. "Uh oh," said Rumble, watching as the snow began to roll down the mountain like a giant snowball. The snowball got bigger and bigger as it rolled. It was heading right toward the village where all his friends lived! Rumble's grumpy mood disappeared completely. Now he was worried about his friends!
Rumble's little legs moved as fast as they could. His red scarf flew behind him as he ran down the mountain path. "Help! Big snow coming!" he yelled as loud as he could. His friends in the village looked up. They saw the giant snowball rolling down the mountain! Everyone started to run around in circles, not knowing what to do. Rumble felt bad. His grumpy stomping had caused this mess. But now he had to fix it! He looked around and saw his friends were scared. The snowball was getting closer and closer. It was now as big as three houses put together! The ground shook with each roll of the massive snow. Rumble knew he had to think fast. His strong stomps had started this problem. Maybe they could help solve it too?
Rumble's eyes lit up with an idea. He waved his furry arms in the air. "Friends! Friends! We can stomp together!" he called out. All his friends stopped running in circles and looked at him. Rumble showed them how to stomp their feet hard on the ground. "Like this!" he said, doing a big stomp. BOOM! One by one, his friends joined in. They all started stomping together. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The ground shook even more. The giant snowball was almost at the village, but then something amazing happened! The stomping made the ground bounce like a trampoline! When the huge snowball hit the bouncy ground, it flew up into the air! Higher and higher it went, like a big white balloon. "Keep stomping!" shouted Rumble. Everyone stomped harder. The snowball bounced again and again, getting smaller each time it hit the ground. Snow sprinkled down like sparkly rain. But just as they thought everything was okay, they heard a loud CRACK! Their stomping had made a big crack in the ice near the village pond. Water started spurting up like a fountain!
Rumble looked at the water shooting up from the crack. But this time, instead of getting grumpy or worried, he smiled. He remembered how his friends had helped him with the snowball. "Friends!" he called out. "Let's make a circle and hold hands!" Everyone joined hands around the spurting water. They danced and spun, faster and faster. The water followed their movement, turning into a beautiful swirling fountain that sparkled in the sunlight. As they danced, the water began to freeze in the cold mountain air. It turned into a gorgeous ice sculpture right in the middle of the village - a reminder of how working together could turn any problem into something wonderful. Rumble's grumpy morning had turned into the most amazing day. His red scarf was still a bit tight, but he didn't mind anymore. He looked at all his friends, laughing and playing around the new ice fountain, and felt warm inside. From that day on, whenever Rumble felt grumpy, he didn't stomp alone. Instead, he found his friends, and together they turned their stomps into happy dances that made everyone smile. The End.
