"Well, Sid," Charlie said, "since you put it that way, why don't we all go for a dip in the waterhole?"
Ned, Bert, and Sid cheered.
"Trust Charlie to make the right choice for us!" they said.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, without a second thought, they went to the farm waterhole, which they'd built, and it was also where they liked to cool off after a hard week of working in the fields.
Charlie disappeared behind a bush, and changed into his blue and green-striped old-timey bathing suit.
Ned changed into his electric blue swimshorts and orange life vest.
Bert put on his black wetsuit.
And Sid changed into white swim shorts, and his chartreuse t-shirt.
"Let's do it." Charlie said. he ran up, and leapt, and plummeted down, shouting, "Cannonball!"
he plunged into the pool, and soon afte rcame Sid, Bert and Ned. They splashed and swam around for a good hour or two.
after a while, they got their towels, and dried themselves.
and then, the size change began.
