My sister wrote to Santa Claus because of things I’ve done. She thinks I’ll make his “naughty list”. I think those things were fun. I squirted her with water and I scared her really bad. She said I wasn’t funny and just got really mad! And so she wrote her letter, and mailed it thatContinue reading “The Letter To Santa”

The Dentist
I’m going to the dentist which kind of makes me ill. I’m worried that he’ll find a tooth that he thinks he should fill. Mom says I shouldn’t worry cause I have had no pain, but I can’t stop that dental drill from buzzing in my brain. If I don’t get a filling, I’m goingContinue reading “The Dentist”
Vegetables
I have a problem with my mom at every evening meal. She says I must eat vegetables no matter how I feel. I tell her celery makes me feel my hair is made of string, and that spinach, beans, and corn make my toenails sting. Potatoes make my left ear itch, tomatoes make me sleep,Continue reading “Vegetables”
In My Imagination
In my imagination, I’m tall and really fit, and people all around me think I’m quite a wit. I drive a car that’s really fast! I’m handsome as can be, and cause I am so wonderful, most wish that they were me. Those things, of course, can’t happen, but still I have a lot —Continue reading “In My Imagination”
Popping Popcorn
Popcorn’s an exciting treat and popping it is quite a feat. Kernels in the popper go, where heating them is rather slow. But then – KABOOM! KABANG! KAPOW! I watch the kernels and think ”Wow!” Their transformation is a sight from hard and gold to soft and white. I then eat popcorn really fast causeContinue reading “Popping Popcorn”
My Homer
I really should have studied for this test today, but what I did instead of that was go outside and play. I thought I’d play a short while, and then I’d read my book, and so I went down to the park to have a little look. The guys were playing baseball and so IContinue reading “My Homer”
Green
Ashley is the strangest kid that you have ever seen. The reason is the girl’s obsession with the colour green. Her socks and shoes and all her clothes are green as green can be. When looking at her books and pens, yes, green is all you see. Her pillows, sheets, her bedspread too, her rug,Continue reading “Green”
Romance in Grade Two
I really loved sweet Mary Lou who sat beside me in grade two. Her eyes were big and bright, bright green. She always smiled — was never mean. She never noticed me at all, cause I was short and she was tall, and so I thought I’d write a note. I thought real hard andContinue reading “Romance in Grade Two”
Rained Out
It really is a rainy day. The sky is just a solid grey. My coach has phoned to let us know my baseball game is not a go. I’m really sad and this is why — I felt inside I’d catch a fly. I was sure that, most of all, each time at bat, I’dContinue reading “Rained Out”
Bruce – the Mouthy Mouse
Bruce was quite a mouthy mouse who tried to tease the cat. The other mice all said that Bruce was just a little brat. The cat, of course, agreed with them, but he didn’t really care. While Bruce called him some nasty names, the cat would only stare. He stared at Bruce and even smiled,Continue reading “Bruce – the Mouthy Mouse”
