The grumpy wizard lost his wand.
He found the wand under the sofa.
He was happy then.
He turned himself into
a great, white bird and flew away.
He felt even happier then.

My Mother
She is the sound of the dishwasher closing
She is the colour white,
the same colour as the washing machine!
She would be a comfy armchair
She is ice cream
because she is cool when things go bad.
She is a tiger because she protects me.
She is a golden daffodil, standing tall.
She is birthdays all year round.

Once upon a time there lived a witch
who lived in a cave on a mountain where there was a dragon.
She thought that she was able to defeat the dragon, but she was wrong.
The dragon blew out fire.
The witch tried to put spells on the dragon,
but the dragon had blown fire at the want,
so she couldn’t put spells on the dragon.
The dragon blew fire at the witch.
So this story doesn’t have a happy ending!
The End.

Once upon a time Mr Mo went to get a job.

One day someone was knocking at his door.
He opened the door…
and there stood two loaves of bread.
They had eyes,
a nose,
and even mouth.
They walked straight in

Erin’s Story:
I enjoyed going to the Kingdom of the Mountains. We were trying to rescue six children from a witch. The witch was ugly with a long nose, but otherwise I didn’t think she was very witchy. Luckily when she gave us her cake, it didn’t have any poison in it. There was two goblins by the lake. One was called Redhorn. We went to the Castle of Dreams and met Daniel. We saw Jessica in a secret tower in the forest where pompom trees grow. There was also a Giant on the hill. he asked if he could eat us. We said Yes, but the giant didn’t eat us. He gave us a stone. I really enjoyed the adventure.

Mia said:
This was a great fun adventure. The witch was scary at times. The children were fun to find and not too easy. They were hidden very well. The City of Dragons was a part that you needed to think about. When I went to the Castle of Dreams I met Daniel. In the tower we met Esther. We went to the forest but there was a fire. We met a Giant. He asked us if we wanted to be eaten. We said yes, but he did not eat us. I really enjoyed this adventure.

Caoimhe’s Story:
I’m here in Granny’s Garden. I followed the raven to an old cottage. I get a funny feeling as I walk in and find Anna. She is very annoying so I am trying to find the others as fast as I can. When I get to the Giant’s hill. I was very scared when he tells me he is going to eat me. Then I went to the Dragon Farm, where we had to tame all the baby dragons. We had to feed the dragons to get Clare back. I found all the other kids and then we went back to Granny’s garden for some tea.

Alex’s Story:
I had so much fun saving all six children. But I have to admit, it was really hard, trying not to meet the wicked witch. But when I had to, she gave me the fright of my life, with her big green nose popping out of her face, with that big, black mole on her face. Anyway, when I found the first child Anna, I think, she said that I was family, that I was related to her, and to her brothers and sister.

When I walked into the witch’s cottage, I heard her talking on her iPhone 5.
‘I don’t want to eat the child’ she moaned and hung up.
She came out and offered me some cake.
I took it and left.
I rescued all the children but they were terribly annoying.
I was glad to give them back to their parents
and to have a cup of tea with Granny.

This is what Michelle had to say:
I loved the trip to the hill where the giant was
but my favourite part was
where the Giant says
‘Shall I eat you?’
but you have say yes
so you can trick him.

As I walked into the cottage, I could sense the witch.
It wasn’t just me being a baby.
There WAS a witch and she offered me a big slice of cake.
I asked her could I have it and suprisingly she gave it to me.

Ciaran’s response:
That was a dreadful day. To be honest the Witch scared the living daylights out of me. I fell neck deep into the swamp and I still can’t wash out the smell. The children that I rescued were so annoying. The wood was as dreadful. I can’t tell you how many times I was ambushed by a blood thirsty bear. We set up camp. In the middle of the night the tent blew away. Man, that’s the last time I am doing that.

There is a secret in a forest
deep,
deep,
deep,
on the coast of Africa,
behind a sign that says:
‘A Secret Hides In This Forest’

And behind it was … a ….
monkey

It was full of all types of monkeys.
So it opened as a Monkey Park.

They had over 10,000 visitors
in only one year,
but there is only one problem.
We need more monkeys.
So if you see an unwanted monkey,
you know where to bring them!
So please,
please,
please
bring any type of monkey,
we won’t mind!
Remember it is in Africa,

Vicious thorns too.
Making our way
to an old ramshackled cabin,

we opened the squeaky door,
we found a dying fire.

There were rotten walls and broken glass.
I got a text.
It said,
‘Where are you?’
It was my Mum,
‘I have to go home’, I explained.

I was glad to go home.

to get to where the jewel is.
This is in the Winter of 1912.
The Queen and I travelled
through thick forest.

They meet two birds.
One says it is safe.
The other says it is not safe.
I am not trying to be horrible
This is my reply
“I do think
I would be
angry
with myself
if I didn’t try.
There it is..
the jewel
Photo Credit: Stefano Corso via Compfight
I took it.
I had succeeded by myself
The world was safe.
When I was in the forest,
I saw a magic tree.
Photo Credit: Denis Collette via Compfight
It talked
and then the tree moved.
Then me
and the tree
called Ella
got to know each other.
We had fun.
BUT, we can’t go out of the forest.
So it was a bit sad
and if you did
an alarm will go.
