What If You Grew Taller Every Night?

You were the shortest kid in ninth grade. Then you told your mirror one thing, and woke up exactly one inch taller than your best friend. What would you do if you grew taller every single night? In this animated what if story, Pip wakes up with his feet hanging off the bed and soon figures out the rule: every night, you grow until you're one inch taller than the last thing you said you wanted to be taller than. Taller than Kai. Taller than the coach. Taller than the hoop. By Day 5 his head is in the attic with the Christmas decorations. By Day 19 he's nineteen feet tall, sleeping on the football field, and the only thing he hasn't said is the one sentence that would fix it. Along the way you learn real science: why everybody wakes up about a centimetre taller than they went to bed, when your body makes most of its growth hormone, why giants can't just scale up (double your height and you get about eight times heavier, but your bones only get about four times stronger), and the true story of Robert Wadlow, the tallest man ever measured, at eight foot eleven. If one sentence a night could make you any height you wanted, would you stay the way you are?
