Honey, I Shrunk Myself!

A kid accidentally drinks a shrinking potion at the school science fair and must navigate a giant world, befriend bugs, and find a way back to normal size.

You are the kind of kid who touches things you are not supposed to touch. You cannot help it. If a sign says 'WET PAINT,' you poke it. If a jar says 'DO NOT OPEN,' you unscrew the lid. Your best friend Marcy says your curiosity is going to get you in real trouble one day, and she is probably right.

"One day you're gonna poke something that pokes back," Marcy told you last week, shaking her head with that look she gives you -- the one that is half annoyed, half impressed.

Tonight is the Oakdale Elementary science fair, and Marcy dragged you along to see her baking soda volcano. The gym is packed with projects -- potato batteries, solar system models, and one terrifying display about mold. You are not a science kid yourself, but you have to admit, the free snacks are pretty good. Marcy wandered off ten minutes ago to find more glitter for her volcano, and now you are standing alone, bored, right next to a table labeled 'EXPERIMENTAL BEVERAGES -- DO NOT TOUCH.'

Oh no. Oh no no no. There it is -- a beaker full of fizzy purple liquid, just SITTING there, practically begging to be tasted. Your brain says "walk away." Your hands say "pick it up." Your stomach says "I wonder what flavor that is."

"Don't do it," you whisper to yourself. "You KNOW better." But do you, though? Do you really?
