Once upon a time, in a land known for its lovely kangaroos and wide sandy beaches, people were thinking about how to keep their home safe. They had these big trucks named Bushmaster, carrying even bigger boom-booms called StrikeMasters. ππ₯ The StrikeMasters could throw their booms really far, all the way over the hills and across the big blue to where the sea tickles the sand. These booms were special because they could fly over the water and say ‘hello!’ to ships that weren’t being very nice from far, far awayβover 250 big steps, or even more! The people in charge, kind of like the kings and queens in fairy tales, were trying to decide if they should have more of these Bushmasters with their boom-booms or a different kind from a faraway land known as America. They also thought about making their own big booms, so they didn’t always have to ask others for theirs. π€β¨ The story had everyone from all over the land talking about which boom-boom truck was better and how to make sure their home stays a happy place where everyone can play and laugh without worrying. And the moral of the story? Working together and using smarts can help protect the home and make sure everyone sleeps tight at night. πβ¨
