This is the story F dictated to me the other day - if you are familiar with DSs, you can play spot the game...

Once upon a time a girl named Seraphina was left by a beach. And the tide came in. It washed Seraphina off the beach. Her parents were too busy to notice! [!!! editorial mum rolls eyes in brackets] She collapsed into the water, and she sunk into the sand. The sand buried her over time.
The End.

She woke up on the other side of the reef. She looked up and the surface of the water was there. She tried going up but she found herself on the other side of the reef again.
She went down and she saw a mermaid.
She fainted and the mermaid took her to a shore where a person was walking a dog. The dog did a poo and the person didn't pick it up like they would in her world. She had a big stick and she poked the poo with it and it instantly went into a bag without her picking it up by hand. Later the person was feeding the dog and she looked at a weird piece of paper. Then she put some soap on the dog and she sprayed it with water, holding the objects with the big stick thing. Then she took her dog for a walk in the park. She used her big stick thing to push the frisbee into the air so that the dog could catch it.
Then the mermaid took her back under water. She said to Seraphina that it was time to go to a different world.
The mermaid took her to a shore where a prince was blowing his shield to make it go across the water, with him on it. The prince realized that Seraphina was standing in the water. The prince took her home to the castle. They met a vicious beast. Later, when the beast was defeated, Seraphina saw that the prince was having a fight with an even handsomer prince!
The mermaid said that it was time to go to a different world.
The mermaid took her to a shore where there was a restaurant. She looked into the window and she saw a lady using her big stick thing to make the knife cut up sausages. Then she got out a pan. She added some ingredients to it and she had this list with food markings on it. Seraphina saw that when the ticks were just appearing on the list without her drawing them, she had a meal.
The mermaid said that it was time to go to a different world.
They appeared on a muddy shore. A robot was just about to dry it up when Seraphina shouted 'Nooooooooooooo!'
She was very impressed with herself as this was the first time she had ever said anything.
Then a handsome prince with a light-up sword came. He had a fight with his gun and he went into a prison. Seraphina nervously followed the prince into the prison. He jumped up to the top of the prison. He made a lift and threw it onto the prison. letting the prisoner free. The mermaid said that it was time to go to another world. The mermaid accidentally took them to a shore where there was crocodiles. Seraphina looked all over the place and saw that it was all animals surrounded by fences. Now she did think that this was a bit rude. But she didn't complain. She looked to see that the giraffes were happy when people put one tree in the middle of the enclosure. She also saw that they needed feeders to feed them.
The mermaid said that it was time to go to a new world.
The mermaid took them to a shore where there was a stable and a robot said 'hello' to her. It was the first time someone had said 'hello' to her in her trip. Ther robot showed her some ponies with numbers on them. The robot told her to build a maths problem by tapping the numbered ponies. Then he taught her how to look after a pony. First she had to wash the pony with a sponge. Then she had to brush the pony with a brush. Then she had to feed it a carrot. Then she had to put a rosette on it. She came first. Then the robot showed her the Pony Meter. He pressed the button to see what pony she was. She was the best pony ever. She was a shaggy white unicorn.
The mermaid said that it was time to go to another world.
She took them to a shore where a duck festival was.She went ashore to see that there was a farm there. She saw that a lady had a red heart. People were watering their crops. It was sort of boring so Seraphina asked the mermaid to go to a different world. The mermaid said that it was time to get bigger. The mermaid took them to a shore where there were boats and scuba divers and people fishing. One person spotted her and took her to the mayor of the town. The mayor said that her son Tim had gone missing. 'Find him. He's probably gone out to the racquetball court.' She found Tim. But the mayor didn't say thank you to her. Instead, the mayor said 'thank you very much!' and she asked her to sign in her name for the town.
Then the mermaid said it was time to go to the best world ever.
She took her to an island where there were still the same sort of people. The mermaids said that she wouldn't be with Seraphina any more. She would have to find the last world herself. Seraphina climbed over a fence ad she saw a gate. She went through the gate to see there were towo dogs guarding it. Then they took her to they mayor of the town. The mayor, who was a turtle asked her who she thought was most important. She said 'the mayor' . That made him happier. Suddenly the mailbox had a letter sign up on it. She assumed that meant that it had letters inside it. She read a letter from Tibby. It said 'To Freya. I've caught a pill-bug. I've caught one for you too. You can have it in this letter as a present. From Tibby.' She decided not to open the present because her name was not Freya.
Then she got a bottle message. It said 'To Seraphina. I love you. From mum' Later on that night she saw a shooting star and prayed for her mum. When she woke up the next morning the first thing she heard was her mum saying 'Wake up princess Seraphina'. She was in a castle.
'You're a little princess!'
'I'm a princess?' said Seraphina. It was all a dream. And they all lived happily ever after.

The End
