Grandma's Melodies

Surge of Power

You gulp down the special jam your grandma gave you. As soon as it slides down your throat, a power you've never felt before races through your body. It feels as if there's electricity in your veins. You stand up straight, feeling taller and braver than ever. The big, scary monster can do nothing right now except roar in frustration. It stomps, growls, but you are not as scared as before.

In front of you, the monster is waiting for your next move. You know you have to act before it attempts to gobble up even more of the tranquil night sky. Your hand is still sticky from the jar of the magical jam, and a hum — a tune — is playful in your mind. Each beat of the night's rhythm chanting 'Power'. But there's a feeling inside you, too, a rush of bravery ready to let itself out.

• Sing a song of power.
• Charge at the monster.
