/* Story Time!
 * -----------
 * The kids are almost ready for bed, but first they need to be read a story.
 * Use your knowledge of regular expressions to find a nice book for them. Write your
 * regular expressions to answer the questions below, and I'll compare my strings to
 * see that they work.
 *
 * Make the checkStory() return true if the story should be read, and false if it shouldn't be.
 * Keep this cheat-sheet open the whole time: http://www.cheatography.com/davechild/cheat-sheets/regular-expressions/
 * If you're really stumped, there's MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions

    // Q1. Make sure it's a faery tail. Match a story only if it starts with "Once upon a time"
    // Q2. We don't want a story that's too scary -- check if there's a dragon and return false if there is.
    // Q3. No mushy stuff either -- return false if here's a "kiss" or a "hug" in this one
    // Q4. We want a story for older kids - check that there are at least 10 words in this story
    // Q5. Make sure it ends with "The End."
