Ken, Bill and Ben enjoyed camping very much. One day, they went to a forest to go camping.

Finished setting up a tent, they saw a witch. Surprisingly, she turned their tent into a candy house. "Wow! It's wonderful!" said the boys. Ken tasted the roof made of ice cream, Bill ate the chocolate window and Ben chewed the candy door. They were very happy and cried excitedly, "Yummy! Crazy!"

At last, they went home happily. Luckily, they did not need to go to the dentist even though they had eaten a lot of candies.

■English highway﹕turn something into something

It means "make something become another thing".

e.g. In Beauty and the Beast, the prince is turned into a monster.

“ Pat: Oh! Just how I wish I could own a candy house too. Fantastic story. Vivid use of different verbs such as "taste", "eat" and "chew" to describe how the boys enjoy the candy feast. Too bad we cannot eat too many candies in real life! ”
