Stevenski writes in "The Wish of a Five-Year-Old Boy",
"I wish I was much taller, so I could reach the shelf.
I'd get that big ol' cookie jar and I'd really help myself.
I looked around the kitchen to see what I would dare.
And then I saw the answer—a little ladder chair.
I unfolded it most quietly, slyly glancing 'round the room.
I climbed up to the top step, innocently whistling a tune.
My arms reached for the treasured prize, as I slowly pulled it near.
Soon I'd have the precious cookies, the chocolate chips so dear.
I felt the ladder wobbling, I had to save myself!
I held on to the cookie jar that came crashing from the shelf!
My mother ran into the room as I lay crying on the floor,
Surrounded by the broken jar and chocolate chips galore!
She picked me up and hugged me. I smiled and sheepishly said, 'Hi.'
With the evidence all around me, I knew I couldn't lie.
My mother was angry of this, I had no doubt.
I'll wait a long time for cookies, sitting here in 'time out!' "
