There once was a seagull and it's name was Peter. He was a genius bird. He was the captain of a very famous peach-colored boat called the Shark. Just when The Shark was about sink, A balloon with much helium energy, sent the shark floating 1 or 2 inches above the water. Peter thanked the fish and grasshoppers who had saved his boat. The next day, a ladybug came to visit the shark. "Hello," she said. "I like your silk beds." When the ladybug had gone, Peter began to think about his beak. "I don't want to think anymore," Peter said. And he went to sleep.

The very busy transforming frog.

Once upon a time there was a frog who went to 32nd st. school. He was a magic frog so he could turn into a child, or even a teacher if he wanted to. Most of the time when he was't a child, he had a tail. He also liked fur, so he looked funny almost always.
He was marvelous at football and almost any other sport. Due to his large brain. He had a job at a hotel and he liked his job.
His job was to get rid of the mous'es and the witches. When he was tired, he always went to sleep no matter what. So, I guess he had a pretty good life.

What I did this weekend.

This weekend I went to ballet class. After ballet class, me and my dad cleaned out my hamster's cage. The next day, I slept late. Later on in the day, I went to an opera in english called "Midsummers night dream." It was really funny. I really liked it. It was long though. 3 hours. But there were two intermissions. In the evening, my mom and dad had to go to a fancy party, so my big sister, Sarah baby sat me and my little sister, Elisabeth. Sarah read us some of the HObbit, and then we talked about the trilogy. "Star wars." Then I had to go to bed. But we didn't want to. So we went up to the computer and played around. Sarah was writing down what me and Elisabeth were saying. we called it "The Book of Dummies."

A long, long, long time ago, there was a baker. He made a donut without a hole. Back then, then donuts didn't have holes. All of a sudden, he was in the air. He was in a time machine and was travelling to the future. He landed in the middle of a war. People were shooting guns at each other. It was actually World War I. Nobody noticed him. Boom! A a gun shot went through the middle of the donut because the baker had forgotton to put the donut down when he was lifted into the air. That gave the baker an idea. Then, he was in the air again. Then, he was in his baker's shop again. This baker's donuts always had holes, and thats why there are holes in donuts.
