Chapter 1 Multicolored Clouds
    One day I was looking up into the sky. Guess what I saw! A multicolored cloud. Then another and another!

Chapter 2 Raining Jelly Beans
    Forecast says get your buckets out, it’s going to rain jelly beans! But just that instant I could see jelly beans falling from the sky. I ran, got my Easter basket and ran outside.
Chapter 3 Sugar Rush
    Mooooom I, I, I, th, th, think I g,g,g,got a sh, sh, sugar rush. Well, I can imagine after allll those jelly beans. Well, that’s obvious. Well true. Oh, is it raining jelly beans again? My oh my, it is.
    “Ohhh, noooo. You don’t need any more candy,” said mom.
    “Oh, yes I do!!” Samantha said. She ran out with a bucket.
Chapter 4 Out Like The Lights
    Ahhhh!!! Crash Bang. I was out like the lights.
    “Honey? Honey? Honey?
    “Hey? What? Is there a fire?”
    “No, you were knocked out! What happened?”
    “Long story.”
Chapter 5  1,591 Buckets of Jelly Beans
    “Hey, mom, guess how many buckets of jelly beans I got?”
    “How many?”
    “1,591 buckets!”
    “Well, it’s obvious. It’s been raining jelly beans soooo hard.”
Chapter 6 Candy Land
    I got to school and saw the playground. It was like candy land. There were gumballs, jelly beans, lollipops, Jolly Ranchers and more. The bell rang. Children went nuts. Before you could say boo, they all had sugar rushes.
Chapter 7 Buckets, Buckets, Buckets
    “Well, mom, what should we do with all those buckets?”
    “I think we should give them to people who need them.”
    “Like Willy Gourmet?”
    “Yeah, only not as old.”
    “Also, Mallory and Dorman.”
    “Yup, you’re exactly right. They need water and that is the perfect way to get it.
Chapter 8 Raining Jelly Beans Again?!?!
    I woke up in the morning and looked out my window. I could not believe what I saw! It was raining jelly beans again! It was so surprising. I got another one of my Easter baskets and collected more candy. I got hit on the head with a gumball. I had to go get another bucket. I filled it. Then another. I had enough candy to last my whole lifetime. I ate and ate all that candy. By the time I got done eating all the candy, it started raining again.
Chapter 9 Sugar Rush
    I did the same thing as I did before I hopped on my scooter and hit the cupboard again but broke the cupboard this time.
    This time my mother instantly yelled, “Samantha!! Wake up!’
    “What? I am awake!”
    “Oh, sorry.”
Chapter 10 The Candy Store
    “Hey, Hon, you want to go to the candy store?”
    “Yes! That is every kid’s dream. Of course, mom. What about dad though?”
    “Your father can wait. Do you want candy or dad?”
    “Candy!”
    “Okay, let’s go!”
Chapter 11 Inside the Candy Store
    When I arrived at the candy store, I was amazed. I saw gumballs, gumdrops, lollipops, cookies, gum, salt water taffy, laffy taffy, and more. I could not decide. Finally, I decided on candied pecans and salt water taffy.
