Talking Food
Once upon a time there was a scientist who wanted to invent talking items. He had ketchup, tacos, burgers, chips, soda and pizza. Then one day, he did it! He tested it on his ketchup. He shouted, "It works! It works!" Then KABOOM he exploded! But his food could now walk and talk. They ran into town and grabbed all the food and fed them the potion. They built a civilization.
Then they had a battle with humankind. They won! The humans had no food or water so they died. The food survived. The food then had wars and they all wanted to be on top. They built armies...

The evil mom bot
One day Tom and his friend Carl got into huge trouble so they had to hide. Carl suggested the abandoned swimming pool so the robot would malfunction. Tom knew it was a dangerous choice but it was the best for now. Why are Tom and Carl running away from a robot you ask? Well let me tell you just how.
One day/yesterday the scientist who lived beside Tom made a mom bot for Tom’s mom. It was helpful at first but then it turned evil. It tied Tom’s mom to a chair, taped her mouth and threw her into a closet. Then it started to chase Tom and Carl and that brings us to now 9999 September the 3rd. Tom and Carl were hiding in the pool changing rooms waiting. Then BANG… the mom bot shouted out ‘’I’m going to find you and put you in a cage of fire!’’. Tom had a plan.
While the mom bot was coming in to the main pool Carl threw a bucket of water on the mom bot. Then the robot malfunctioned and fell into the pool. After that Tom and Carl went back home and got their mom out of the closet. “Carl your moms probably been looking all over you better go back BYEEE CARL!” shouted Tom. Then they lived happily ever after.

My Dream
One night we went camping in the woods. We planned to stay out there from darkness to dawn but then in midnight it was pitch black. Then I heard something rustling in the bushes. I knew straight away it was a werewolf. ‘Oh No’ I shouted . I said "what happened?". My mum came and whispered ‘It's ok it was only a dream."

Not alone
As I walked through the forest all I could see was trees. Trees here, trees there and a few openings of grass. I walked to one if the openings and looked up as the moon shone on me. All I could think was how I was going to escape the forest. Maybe I never will.
Hours later I am still walking through the forest like a zombie. I am so hungry and tired, I think I should rest. As I was about to fall asleep I hear a weird rustling noise, maybe it’s an animal. Whatever it was I decide not to find out what it is. So I get up and keep walking.
A few minutes later I am still as stuck as before when I hear the same weird rustling and a big crunch of a branch behind me. As the footsteps got closer, I hear a clank noise. I freeze, I don’t want to open my eyes. I don’t think I’m alone.

WHERE IS MY PIZZA!
Once there was a very impatient man. One day he ordered a large pepperoni pizza. He said “I want an extra-large pepperoni pizza. Tell me how much I have to pay!” and the server man answered “Extra-large pepperoni pizza? That will be €10.50. “WHAT DO YOU THINK MY MONEY COMES OUT OF A BOTTOMLESS PIT?” “N…n…no sir”

Once upon a time there was a brother and sister called Tom and Lilly. Tom was 10 and Lilly was 8. One day their Mum and Dad had to go to the USA for work. Tom and Lilly had to go to their Auntie and Uncle who lived on a ship.
One day their Auntie said they were going snorkeling. Tom and Lilly were really excited. When they went they saw loads of amazing fish, turtles and much more. The reeds and caves were beautiful. SUDDENLY they saw a...SHARK!!! They swam for their lives. They went as fast as they could. They were running out of breath. They knew they had to hide. They went into a nearby cave. They stayed there for two minutes and the shark went away. They swam back to the ship and a week later they went home. The end! |
The Little hedgehog
The Hedgehog was called Anna. She was four. Anna had no parents so she lived with her Nana; but didn't mind. One day she went to the park. It was fun but she and her Nana had to run away because the fox tried to eat them. But they got away and went back another day.
The next time they went back she went with her cousin. They played hide and seek. Anna was on. The fox did not get them again like last time. The fox did not get them or see them. They had lots of fun. |

The Magic Box
Once upon a time there lived Anna. One day she was in the attic and found a dusty box. She brought it down stairs and looked inside of it and cleaned out all the dust. All of a sudden stars and rainbows came out. She saw that powers came out of her hand like fire, water, lightning and more. Then her mum came down stairs and asked Anna what was going on. She had to go on a play date with her friend and when she went on the play date she told her friend the whole story. When she got home all her powers were gone. But she lived happily ever after.
The end. |
