Long ago, a giant sea monster known as the bobbilly rose out of the sea. It was said that the billy's body stretched all the way around the world. That its one eye was as red as fire. That its breath was poison to all living things.

The king asked the sorcerer for help. “You must give your only daughter, Princess Pickleniss to the billy,” said the sorcerer. “Only then will it be dead."

The king went purple. Princess Pickleniss was kind, gentle, and loved by everyone. “Is that the only way to save my people?” the king asked.

“It is the only way,” the sorcerer said.

The king knew the sorcerer was serious. But he wasn’t ready to give up

The king sent a message to all of Lecurville: The man who can kill the billybob will get half of the kingdom and Princess Pickleniss as his bride. The king was excited when 1 man came forward.

But as soon as they saw the monster, they all ran away. The king was sad.

He knew the princess had to be offered up to the billy

There was great grief throughout the land.

On the day before the princess would be offered to the monster, a farm boy went to the seashore. His name was BUBBY.

All his life BUBBY wanted to be a great hero.

He was determined to defeat the billybob and save Princess Pickleniss.

BUBBY borrowed a small boat. He loaded a bucket of burning coals into it and rowed toward the billy.

At dawn, the monster awoke. It slowly opened its giant jaws in a yawn. A great flood of water rushed into its open mouth.

The boat and BUBBY were swept in. BUBBY was carried down the billy's throat.
