Question

In this story, you should have at least five stopping places on its journey from “flush” to “faucet”. For example, you could use the following path: the drop of water enters the drain of the shower, and then it travels to the wastewater treatment plant, it then is released into a stream, which flows into a river, and from here the drop is collected and cleaned and is sent to the faucet in the bathroom of a movie theater.

As you describe the path, explain what is happening at each location and what the drop is experiencing. Remember that this is a children’s book and you want to make it appropriate for this audience.

Answer 1

Once upon a time, there was a little drop of water named Drip. Drip lived in a cozy bathtub in a house with a family who loved to take long showers. One day, Drip decided to go on an adventure and explore where it would end up if it went down the drain.

Drip first landed in the drain of the shower, joining other drops of water. It was a bit scared at first, but soon realized it was not alone. Drip and the other drops traveled through pipes and tunnels until they reached the wastewater treatment plant.

At the treatment plant, Drip and the other drops were separated from dirt and other particles. The treatment plant used special filters and chemicals to clean the water, making sure it was safe to be released into the environment. Drip felt refreshed and happy to be cleaned up and ready for its next adventure.

After the water was cleaned, it was released into a nearby stream. Drip joined the other drops of water as they flowed through the stream, past rocks and plants. The water felt cool and fresh, and Drip felt like it was on a fun water slide.

The stream eventually led to a river, where the water became wider and deeper. Drip saw fish swimming by and ducks floating on the surface. The river was surrounded by trees and hills, and Drip felt like it was in a beautiful forest.

The final stop on Drip's adventure was at a water treatment plant, where the water was once again filtered and cleaned. This time, it was cleaned specifically for drinking. Drip was excited to be part of this process and felt honored to be able to provide clean drinking water to people.

After being cleaned and treated, Drip was sent through pipes to a nearby movie theater. Drip traveled through the pipes until it reached the bathroom faucet. Finally, Drip was able to complete its adventure and fulfill its purpose by providing clean water for people to drink and use.

The end.
