Leo's Time Travel Adventure

Leo loved to play. His room was full of toys.

One day, he found a shiny box. It had big buttons.

"What is this?" Leo asked. He pushed a red button.

WHOOSH! The room spun around. Colors swirled and twirled.

Suddenly, Leo was not in his room. He was in a green forest.

Tall trees stood all around. Big leaves rustled softly.

Then, he saw a giant creature! It had long neck and ate leaves.

"A dinosaur!" Leo whispered. It was huge and friendly.

Leo giggled. This was so cool! He waved to the dinosaur.

Then he looked at the shiny box again. He pushed a blue button.

WHOOSH! The colors swirled again. The forest was gone.

Now, Leo was in a place with flying cars. Buildings were tall and shiny.

Little robots walked by. They waved their metal hands.

"The future!" Leo said. He saw a robot dog wag its tail.

Leo smiled. He pushed a green button. WHOOSH!

He was back in his room. The shiny box sat on the floor.

Leo hugged his teddy bear. "What an adventure!" he said.

He knew he could go on another trip soon.
