The sentence

Little Skyler, at seven years old, wears fifty sweaters, all at once, for a Guinness world record.

Show the five-word answer
littleSkylerwearsfiftysweaters

Dropped 'fifty'? Every day before today, that was right. But 'wears sweaters' is not a record, it is getting dressed. Fifty at once is the whole deed. This is real. Skyler Rozell-Whitaker is seven, and he is now a Guinness World Record holder, jaw-deep in a mountain of wool. Imagine sweater number thirty. Imagine putting your arms down. 'Seven' had to go: that is how old he is, not what he did.
