v3.1
There was a new superhero in town.
His real name was Veggieman,
but the children called him Wedgieman.
Wedgieman could do lots of things.
Right now he was fixing
his outfit.
He was making a pocket.
And he was changing
his Veggieman name
into a Wedgieman name.
He pulled the V off
his suit and put on a W.
“This will make the children happy,”
said Wedgieman.
Wedgieman cared about the children
more than he cared about his own name.
Wedgieman was a real hero.
Wedgieman put the V in his pocket.
“I might need to change back
into Veggieman,” he said.
He thought about a vegetable emergency.
He smiled.
Now he was ready for anything.
