The man looked up and said, “Huh? How?” The boy handed the man some white flour. “Just sprinkle the flour on the shadow to make it white. What do you think?” asked the boy. “Hey! That is a good idea,” said the man. The man started to cover his shadow with the white flour. However, to their surprise, the shadow only became darker.

Next, the boy gave the man some tape and said, “Try taping down the shadow so you can run away! What do you think?” “Hey! That’s a brilliant idea!” said the man. The man carefully put three pieces of tape on the edge of the shadow. Then, he took off running. However, to their surprise, the shadow ran after the man and was right below him.

“Oh, I know! I’ve got it now!” said the boy and he immediately gave a small vacuum cleaner. “What about vacuuming the shadow up in air.” “Hey! Another fantastic idea!” is what the boy expected to hear the man say. But, he didn’t. “Oh, I can’t do that! Look at the shadow,” said the man. The shadow looked sad and lonely. It was hunched over with its shoulders slouched. You may also like to read, The Greedy Dog.

You got it!” and the man bent down and got very close to his shadow and kissed it. “Hey you! I’m sorry! How about we become best friends, huh?” said the man. The man and his shadow walked away happily as best friends do.
