The kids wrote stories. The BEST stories EVER I must say. Abby wrote hers out by herself. Created it, wrote it, edited it all by herself. Matthew told me his and I wrote it down verbatim. Aside from a few minor spelling corrections, neither had help from me at all!
I realize you can't READ it well from there so I shall now print out what it says: "Hi I am Matilda. I am a princess. I'm a penguin. I have a big puffy dress and a tiara. I can't catch a fish with my dress."
Yes, that's right. Matilda cannot catch a fish with her dress. I THINK she had intended to say "with my dress ON." but.. you know this is a heck of a lot more funny.
NOW on to Matthew's..
Once again, I DO realize you can't read it from there so I shall put, verbatim, his story: "Once upon a time, there was a little penguin that was actually a dragon. Then the penguin started to cry. The penguin was very lonely in the jungle. One day a bat came to drink the penguin's blood. The the bat started to drink then penguin's blood. Then the bat heard a volcano. The bat flew away. The volcano reached the penguin. Penguin said "EEEEKKKKK!!!" When the lava reached the penguin's belly, he went swimming in the lava. The penguin heard the bat coming back. Next, the penguin said "EEEEEKKKKK!!!' The penguin scurried away."
Why the penguin was a dragon, I have NO idea. HOW it survived swimming in lava, a blood sucking bat and being a dragon in the jungle only to be depressed and lonely..? Once again NO idea.. BUT.. BEST penguin story by a 4 year old EVER!
