He was eighteen feet tall. In the next few years, he stayed with the villagers in Cape Cod. When, he was 12, he was 36 feet tall and would always swim in the ocean with the whales. When he became a sailor, he went n a boat with his mates and they went out into the ocean. Stormy had to wrestle an octopus to get the ship going again. When he started feeling lonely, he took his belongings and went west. He thought that he should stay in Kansas. It was boring to him because he didn't have any ocean around him, so he went back to Cape Cod. The villagers made a ship that could fit Stormy's size so he wouldn't have to sleep in a rowboat. When the boat was finished Stormy and some others set off. They went in between the Calais and the cliffs of Dover. The ship wouldn't fit, so he got soap and slid across. In memory of Stormy, the villagers made a song about him and made a beautiful headstone for him.
