Daisy the Curly Cat: advertising

Today we are going to learn about Truth in Advertising by conducting a little experiment. Here is a package of Magic Grow Super Size. The package says just drop in water and it grows and grows. SUPER SIZE! I have selected the magic lizard for this experiment.

Here is our container of water. I am carefully inspecting the "before" lizard. He is nothing special. I cannot wait for him to grow SUPER SIZE!

Here he is in the water. I tapped on the glass, but he did not move. I guess he grows very slowly. Now we must wait, and wait, and wait, and wait.... for days. This is the hard part.

At last, he is done growing. Hmmm. I am a little suspicious. Because he does not look SUPER SIZE.

Let's take him out of the water and look closely. Yep, he is just Average Sized now.

Let me check the package again...

It says he is supposed to grow to INCREDIBLE SIZE!

I am disappointed in my Magic Grow Super Size. But if this toy was called "Magic Grow Average Size" then I might not have bought him. I feel a little bit sad that I wasted my allowance.
