The Child Cruncher

One summer day, while her friends are on vacation and her father is busy, a girl is kidnapped by a villain and looks forward to an adventure, but the villain turns out to be an ordinary child cruncher, and is easily outsmarted.

"Gottcha!" hissed the fierce robber. "Off to my cave!"
"One moment please," Molly said. Then she shouted, "Papa, I am being kidnapped by a big ugly villain. Is that all right?"
"Oh, that's fine," Dad replied. "Have fun, but don't forget to brush your teeth."

One summer evening, Molly is so bored that she dreams up an adventure with a fierce villain. But being kidnapped is not as thrilling as Molly had hoped. Her big ugly villain turns out to be an ordinary child cruncher, not a fierce robber. What a disappointment! Instead of going on all sorts of adventures by horseback, he only wants to eat her up. Luckily Molly knows just what to do. Taking the situation into her own hands, she finds her way home to her father who is at home worrying about nothing as usual.
