A Story About My Sister

By Alex Schaeffer

My name is Jack Bottler. I have a little sister named Sarah. We are vegetarians. One day, our parents died. So we were taken care of by our Auntie and Uncle. And then one day I lost my sister. I checked the whole garden but I forget to check one risky spot – a bush of animals! I looked there but there was no sign of my sister. After a few weeks, I saw bare feet hanging from the trees. It might be my sister. I knew how to climb so I climbed up the tree.

“Help me down,“ my sister said. I put her on my back and I went down the tree. And then she told me why she was lost, because she wanted pet deer. Then one day there was a deer attracted to our house. And she got what she wanted – a pet deer. And I got what I wanted, a stray kitten. And she was wearing a beautiful dress. And then our Auntie and Uncle got a pet lizard. And then we lived happily ever after.

Something Is Not Right

My name is Naomi Butterfly. My parents didn’t really like me. They didn’t like my clothes. They thought they were too shiny – I didn’t know why. So I ran away. I thought I ran into a different country but somehow I ran into a different planet. My glasses almost fell off and then suddenly I saw a sign. I put my glasses back on. It said, “It is illegal to wear glasses. No matter how old you are you will be in jail if you are wearing glasses.”

.

Then suddenly somebody who seemed very nice said to me, “Do you want me to read that for you?” Quickly I took off my glasses, put them behind me and then I said, “No thank you.” Then before I knew it, I said to myself, “I want to stay with my family.” So, I tried to hide my glasses when everyone saw me. And then one day, I was talking to somebody with my glasses off. And then I put my glasses behind me. The police were right behind me, and saw my glasses and put me in jail.

.

And then I pushed my glasses off and I cried. Then the police saw me crying. Then the strangest miracle happened. He went out of jail. Took every sign he saw and erased “glasses are illegal”. Then he went back to jail. Then he told me I was allowed to wear my glasses. Then I wore my glasses. Then instead of just enjoying the planet, I walked home. 

.

My parents even changed. And I told them the whole story about what happened. And then my parents appreciated my style and lived happily ever after.

.

The end.
