Topic: If you woke up one morning and found a 4-inch-tall man or woman sitting on your dresser, how would you react? What does this person look like? How did they get there? What would you do with them?

That's the exact question out of the book. Thanks in advance for the input!

How about the following story line:

The 4" tall man is only the first of a large percentage of the world's population who will wake each morning for the next year, to find themselves having shrunken to 4" tall.

Inside the genetic code of man is a marker initiating a transformation to a greatly reduced height at such a time as man has developed to a specific set of parameters. Perhaps the marker is a means to prevent the world from overpopulation. Or, perhaps the markers design is to safeguard the world's resources.

You didn't say how long your story has to be, but you should have quite a bit of material to work with here. The story could focus on the initial shock of the first few who are transformed ... wouldn't it be hilarious if the first to convert were the world's leaders? Or the story could trace part or all of the year long conversion to explore how our society (and other societies) would have to change. Or the story could focus on one type of product and it's overhaul ... say toilets, or cars etc...

Sounds like it could be a really fun assignment. Enjoy!

Did you guys read indian in the cupboard?? Well anyway I would probably question them and see who they are and what their name was. I would imagine this person would be very hard to see much less describe, but I'm guessing they would have very dark eyes and dark hair. Probably wearing boots, and in some clothes from an action figure. He probably got there via walking. And if he is just watching you he probably has something he wants to tell you. So I would figure out what he wants. Then I would try and help him with his adventure.

maybe buy them a cage and a water bowl with a hamster wheel? They got there because they had really short parents and they passed the genes to their kid. You should react laughing histerically. They look like Santa's elf. I would sell him on e-bay for millions
