Jack decided to give it a try.
He pulled off his other wellington boot, and then, pulled off his other sock.
He dunked his sock into the small bowl [that's where the water that trickled into his boot came from], and wrung it dry, like before.
THen, he watched as his other sock began to shrink, like before.
Within seconds, it was doll-sized, like before.
Jack put his other shrunken sock on his other foot, right on the big toe.
He wriggled his toes, and the tiny socks moved on the big toes.
He got out his mobile, took A PICTURE OF HIS tiny socks on the big toes of his feet, and uploaded it to the internet.
Jack took the tiny socks off the toes of his feet. He held them in his hand. "Wow." he said to himself. "Both my socks are tiny now."
it officially confirmed it - his new fountain could shrink clothes.
He stared at the other clothes he was wearing - his straw hat, his white shirt, his red thin waistcoat, his thick brown jeans, and then saw his dark green wellington boots lying discarded near the fountain.
If the fountain could shrink his socks, could it shrink his other clothes too?
Or maybe, it could shrink him.
Or he could use the fountain to make his socks grow back to normal size.
