Danny: Who are you?
Hopian: It’s all right.
There’s nothing to be afraid of.
Danny: What are you doing here?
Hopian: My name is Hopian, Danny.
Danny: How do you know my name?
Hopian: I’ve been watching you.
Danny: Watching me? Why?
Hopian: Only you can help us, Danny.
I come from Ginormous.
Hopian: It’s a land filled with giants like myself.
Hopian: The people of Ginormous were usually very happy.
Hopian: We all got along with each other.
We knew how to play.
Hopian: Families used to gather for picnics in the colorful gardens.
Hopian: The giant children used to sing and paint pictures.
Hopian: My son used to make clay castles.
Danny: Sounds like fun! What happened?
Hopian: Our color is disappearing, Danny.
Danny: What do you mean?
Hopian: I noticed it about a month ago.
Hopian: I went outside one day to get ready for a party.
Hopian: Our friends and neighbors were going to join us.
Hopian: I looked around the garden, and then I noticed something.
Hopian: I walked up to a plant that was normally bright blue.
Hopian: But now it was gray!
I bent down to look at the grass.
Hopian: I noticed that it had faded too.
Hopian: I was surprised, and started to feel sad.
Danny: That’s terrible!
Hopian: As the weeks passed, I noticed more and more gray.
Hopian: My friends were no longer very happy.
People seemed to change.
Hopian: Something evil is happening to my world.
Hopian: My people are very sad.
They miss color.
That’s why I came to you.
Danny: Why me?
Hopian: Everyone in Ginormous is forgetting all about color.
Hopian: But you still have a colorful imagination.
Danny: But what can I do?
I’m just a little kid.
