One day, Timmy's mom came home from work with a HUGE bag of jelly beans. The bag was super heavy because it was 4ft. tall and filled to the top with all types and colors of jelly beans.

Timmy went straight for the candy the second he saw his mom, but his mom wouldn't let him. "You have to wait until I get back from the market to eat them. I don't want you to eat too many" his mom told him.

NO jelly beans!!

Timmy didn't want to wait though. The second his mom left he went and ate a handful of the jelly beans. It was the best candy he'd ever had. He needed to tell his friends about it.

YUMMMYYY!!!

He immediately invited 4 of his closest friends over. They loved the jelly beans too! They ate a handful too and wanted even more because they were the best jelly beans in the world.

Timmy decided to split up the bag into 5 big groups. He gave each of his friends one of the groups and kept one for himself even though his mother told him not to touch the jelly beans.

Later that week, each of his friends played with other friends. They thought the jelly beans were so good that they wanted to share their jelly beans with their friends.

Timmy's friends split up their jelly beans and shared them with their friends. Their friends loved the jelly beans too.

Now, Timmy's friends had the jelly beans and so did their friends. Everyone loved the jelly beans so much, that they shared them with even more people.

This sharing went on until everyone in the city had a small amount of jelly beans. Timmy's mom was not happy about this because she specifically told him not to touch the jelly beans.

Everyone in the city ate their jelly beans and loved them. Timmy was a hero to the whole town because now everyone was happy and loved the jelly beans.

For the next week, Timmy was loved by everyone. He got free snacks, drinks, and everyone wanted to play with him too!

He was the happiest kid on the planet, until one day, everyone in the city got very sick except for his mother.
