After school one day, a little boy named Johnny 

came home and asked his dad,"How are all 

living things classified?" His dad replied, "Well, 

Son, let me explain."

One day, in the land where the six kingdoms 

ruled the world, there lived a man named Poon. 

He was a very adventurous man, so he decided 

to travel to all of the six kingdoms. The six 

kingdoms were used to classify all living 

animals. He packed his bags and headed on his 

way.

After a long troublesome journey, he reached 

the Kingdom of Plantea. Here, he met with their 

leader, Supa Plant. Supa Plant told me all about 

his kingdom. "The plants that live in my 

kingdom are autotrophic. This means we make 

our own food. We also breathe in carbon 

dioxide, and turn it into oxygen for all animals 

to breathe. There are about three-hundred 

thousand different species of plants in my 

kingdom," said Supa Plant.

Soon after, he arrived in the Fungi Kingdom.   Here, 

he met Shrum, the President of the Fungi Kingdom. 

As they explored the Kingdom, Shrum told Poon   all 

about Fungi.   He said,"Mushrooms, mold and 

mildew are types of fungi.   They are visible without 

a microscope. All fungi work as decomposers, to 

break down dead, organic material, and turn it back 

into nutrients. Most of the fungi, in my kingdom, 

digests its food by using microscopic threads, called 

hyphae."  

After hitching a ride from one of the animals, Poon 

arrived in the kingdom of the Archea. Here, he met 

the ugly Blob. The Blob had to meet Poon outside his 

normal habitat, because Archea live in the most 

extreme places in the world.   "We are thought to be 

some of the oldest forms of bacteria," Blob said. "Our 

diet is mostly made up of methanol and acetate. 

Some of the archeabacteria, in our kingdom, can 

stand up to 190 degrees fahrenheit," continued Blob. 

"Thanks for stopping by and helping to teach others 

about us. Scientists don't know much about our 

kingdom."

Next, he met Immune in the Kingdom of Eubacteria. Poon 

learned that Eubacteria are a relative of the 

Archeabacteria, he had previously met.   After Poon and 

Immune started talking, Immune said randomly, "Did you 

know, that on average,most human bodies carry about 4 

pounds of bacteria inside it?   And, bacteria are so small 

that the average human, has more bacteria in his or her 

mouth than there are people in the world."   As they kept 

talking, Poon learned that the "smell of rain" is caused by a 

species of bacteria, called Actinomycetes. Also, he learned 

that bacteria are found everywhere humans go. Bacteria 

can also cause many different diseases, like influenza and 

pneumonia. After learning this disturbing fact, Poon fled 

quickly and quietly, before he got sick, too.
