Stebina was a curious girl with a very exciting personality often. She loved to ask questions and to go deep in every solution she got. Her curiosity sometimes caught her into scrapes. Everyone was irritated of answering all of Stebina's questions because everyone knew that she would never ever get satisfied with only one answer, she always asked numerous questions from a one solution or answer she got. But unlike other fellow people, Professor Storm always answered Stebina's all questions. Professor Storm was Stebina's neighbour along with a well known scientist for his mind-blowing inventions. Professor Storm had invented many crazy inventions and one of them was Time Machine and many other. His efficiency and precision in making different gadgets had made him one of the most popular scientists of the world. The reasons of Professor Storm's success and increase in his renown were his gadgets. Coming back to Stebina, Professor Storm loved to answer Stebina's interesting questions with his wonderful gadgets. He always praised Stebina's ability to ask questions from the solution she got. He was fond of Stebina's questions and her curious personality. In conclusion we can say that both Stebina as well as Professor Storm were the same, curious and excited for learning new things. 


One day, Stebina was cleaning her study desk that she caught sight of a little ant which was died because of the immense pressure of her geometry box. Stebina felt very poor for that ant. She thought that the life of these small organisms is even small than they themselves. She immediately left all her work and ran to Professor Storm. 

Stebina: Professor! I have a serious question which only and only you can answer, if I will ask this to someone else then most probably the one will roar at me for answering such a silly question and it will make me even more confused!

Professor: Ask dear, I'm always present to answer your interesting questions.

Stebina explained everything to the Professor about what she saw when she was cleaning. 

Stebina: So my question is that, Is being small the worst thing? Because according to me being small is very boring and it is the worst punishment of God to an organism, isn't it?

Professor: Stebina, being small isn't punishment it's a god's gift!


Stebina: How?

Professor: Let's take for example an Ant, its life is very small, just our fingers can kill them, but it's life is powerful! Most important thing is that we should live a powerful life whether it's small or big.

Stebina: How ant's or any other small organism's life is powerful?

Professor: Hmm.. Ants can carry more weight than themselves.

Stebina: Wow!

Professor: And yes! Ants are always good in luck like it happened in the book, " Andy Ant and Dino Dinosaur"!

Stebina: Which book is this? I haven't read it!

Professor: Oh dear! You haven't read it, then you must! Wait! I'll give you a real life experience of that book with my gadget, The Sucking Machine!

Stebina: The Sucking Machine? Which new gadget is this?

Professor: This gadget sucks any individual in any book! And I have a copy of the book, Andy Ant and Dino Dinosaur, so I'll use this gadget on you and you'll explore what happened with Andy Ant and Dino Dinosaur as an ant! 


Stebina: An ant?

Professor: Yes! I'll use this gadget on you as an ant, you'll become Andy Ant in your adventure and this whole adventure will prove that small ones are powerful as well as lucky!

Stebina: Great! Then let's start! Let me dive in the book Andy Ant and Dino Dinosaur!!

Professor Storm's gadget Sucking Machine, sucked Stebina into the book. A new adventure for Stebina started.

Stebina completely turned into an ant. Whatever movement and talks was happening, the ant in the book was doing it but Stebina as an ant could understand everything what was happening. Meanwhile, Andy Ant was talking but Stebina who was also Andy Ant was thinking and listening. It was one body, two lives! 

Andy Ant was wandering here and there in search of food. Andy Ant suddenly saw Dino Dinosaur who was very very very big as compared to her. Stebina inside Andy Ant was thrilled. Stebina was thinking what if Andy Ant talked something unusual with Dino Dinosaur and she would get killed? What if because of Andy Ant she got into scrapes and couldn't get out of trouble if any trouble comes! When suddenly a conversation between Andy Ant and Dino Dinosaur started: 

Dino Dinosaur: Oh Andy Ant! How're you?

Andy Ant: I'm fine Dino! How're you doing? Well it's very hot here, let's converse in that cave!


Dino Dinosaur: Sure!

Because of very much scorching heat, both of the organisms went in the cave.

Andy Ant: Well, you didn't answered how're you doing?

Dino Dinosaur: Ohh..I'm thinking of how I'm so powerful and you! You're so small that creatures like you could be killed by us dinosaurs nails itself! 

Andy Ant: Dino, Yes I'm small but always remember the small the powerful! 

Dino Dinosaur: Poor Andy, Being big in size is the best, small ones have small mind.( Laughs loudly) I'm the most powerful and smartest organism on Earth, well you can call me the Super Animal of Earth! 

Andy Ant: Who's smart and who's powerful, everyone will understand one day!

But who knew that, Andy's one day would be that same day itself! 


Suddenly, the cave in which Andy Ant and Dino Dinosaur were present started shaking because of earthquake! And some very huge rocks fell on the entrance of the cave, resulting the cave's entrance being blocked! And after some time the Earthquake stopped.

Dino Dinosaur: Oh! This earthquake blocked the entrance of this cave! How we will leave from here!

Andy Ant: Not we, only you. I can easily get out from this cave because of my size.

Andy Ant very easily got out from the cave and Dino Dinosaur was dying inside to come out from the cave. Stebina full of interest was watching everything. Soon, Andy Ant started having mercy for Dino as no matter how was he, he was her's friend! Andy Ant saw some dinosaurs roaming, she called them and told about Dino's presence inside the cave. The dinosaurs with all their might cleared the entrance of the cave for Dino to come out. When Dino Dinosaur came out, he firstly grated Andy Ant with his heart. Dino understood that Being big is not always useful, while being small is one of the most beneficial thing. 

After all this was over, Stebina came back to the original world near Professor Storm.

Stebina: Professor, this was one of my most wonderful adventures! I really learnt that being small isn't worst it's the best from Andy Ant! 

Professor: Okay! What's the one line moral you learnt from your adventure?

Stebina: The moral I learnt is we should live a powerful life weather it's small or big! But still life of small organisms is full of struggle!

Professor: Yes Stebina it's true! But I'm proud of you that you understood living small life or being small isn't worst!

Stebina: It's all because of you Professor Storm. Thank you so much!!

Professor: You're always welcome my Curious Heart!
