That day it snowed in London
Once upon a time, there was no snow in London during the winter. There were only snowflakes, but it never, ever snowed more than mere millimeters of snowflakes. Then one night, it started snowing, and it continued to snow, and snow, and snow. The people of London were in shock, as the next morning, inches of snow piled up at the front of their doors.
People were snow fighting throughout London, boys raining down snowballs from buildings on unwary passerbys. Everyone was enjoying themselves. It was a happy day for the citizens of London. Snowmen were built up all over the city.
The very same day, Yang and his four friends, Maeghan, Fabrico, Bruno and Marianna decided to have a grand snow-fight on the streets. It was a tough fight indeed, as snowballs smashed, and clumps of snow were dumped on each other.
Then, they came up with an idea. They decided to build a snowman, a snowman far taller, and greater than the ones on the streets of London. "We shall build one taller than ourselves", they exclaimed. And they were all in one agreement.
However, as they proceeded to build the big snowman, they realized, "oh we have no carrots! What shall we do?". Alas, they decided to build a brazilian snowman, and brought a banana along. As they toiled, and heaved, and pushed and carried, finally the giant snowman was complete. Taller than most men in the city of London, with a fine yellow nose.
The five builders were very proud of their creation indeed. Then they realized he was without clothes. Alas, they gave him the Brazilian soccer jersey for his shirt, and the Brazilian flag for his identity, and gloves to keep his hands warm.
"What shall we name him", the creators asked. "Ronaldo" shall be his name, and fat as the soccer player ronaldo he shall be, the builders agreed. And the builders were very happy with their finished monument.
