The Lonely Boat

Once in the gorgeous Island of Fiji an Explorer came, she discovered an unusual thing. She saw a boat and if it wasn’t for the peeling paint and the faded fishing nets, she couldn’t tell these boats had years of history hidden in their beams. She looked carefully at the biggest of the boats and her mind began to wander. Who owned it? Where had it sailed too? What sort of memories were hidden amongst the ropes and nets? She stared at the boat for a second, then decided to stay there. She built her own house and started examining the Island. After a month or two, she went back to her own country. When people heard about this Island they all came. They used the boat that the explorer was going to examine. They built so many houses. The city was being polluted. Then they just left that boat that they used. When the explorer came back and saw so many people living there. She was happy to see that, then she went to meet the people. When she got to one of the houses she saw the boat. She was astonished to see that boat. Then she stayed with them for a few days then went back. The next time she came to the Island, it was polluted. She asked them” please stop polluting this gorgeous land”. They agreed with her because of the pollution the water was dirty and the food cost alot of money. You all might be asking what has happened to the lonely boat, well the explorer took it to the museum and left it so everyone could see this boat that was built so many years ago.

Watch and Learn

Once in a beautiful forest there lived a family of bears. Then one day, something unexpected happened. There were two little twins right next to the mother bear. They were so happy about their twin babies. “They are so adorable,” she says to her only child. “They indeed are”, she says. Then the father bear led them out of the forest and into the beach. He started teaching them how to fish, attack, and protect them from predators.   His cubs watched from the beach, learning from his every move. He couldn’t afford to teach them bad habits. Every move and every second counted. They were astonished by their father’s performance. They were so scared that they would not even dare to touch the water but their father encouraged them to get in the water. Just then this enormous wave came and took the twins away. The mother bear was so worried. Father Bear felt a tap on his shoulder, it was a surfer carrying the two twins, the father bear was so happy, they said thank you to the surfer then he went away.

The little bears got into the water and they both caught a fish. They weren’t scared anymore after their crazy adventure.

Magical Eggs

A year ago, he found them deep inside a cave he’d stumbled across in Bulgaria, surrounded by a vast pile of ash from a fire that had long gone out but still gently smoking. To protect them he took them home and put them in a warm place so that when they hatch they would be warm because it was winter  He waited one week than another, time went so fast that it was already two months.  Then he got a book that had a lot of facts about birds. When he finished reading the book he said “I’m going to live these eggs in the forest and visit them every day”. He gathered up the thing he needed. When he got to the forest he looked for a very good place to hide them. Then he took a shovel from his bag and started digging, just then he heard something. He looked around somewhere to hide then he found a cave. He ran into a cave, that's when he found out that he left the eggs behind. He was ready to run and get eggs but he heard the noise again, he was too scared and just stayed there. It was nearly evening that he fell asleep. When he woke up he peeked to see what was making that noise. He didn’t see a thing, he ran to the place where he hid the eggs. He was shocked to see that the eggs were hatched and there was nothing. He felt something soft, it felt like a pillow. He checked again and there was a strange feeling, it still was there. There was also a table. Then he opened his eyes, he saw a ceiling ( which was pretty strange). He was in his bed, he was not in a cave nor in a forest. Then he said, “what a strange dream it was”. 

The Two Paths


 It was a glorious day in the countryside, so peaceful and quiet. It was evening and everyone was getting ready for bed then there was this ear-splitting noise that they heard. All the men in that countryside came to find out what was happening and there was a wildfire caused by a lightning strike. Everyone was so scared but something unexpected happened.  The fire was not coming to the other side and nothing was destroyed but everything on the other side was grey. Their world was disappearing inch by precious inch: a lush, sun-drenched land full of colour and life becoming a barren, ruinous, grey wasteland.
What would become of them all? Was there even a future?  People from the other border started coming to the side where there was life. Soon the Countryside was split into two paths, one path leading to the dryland and the other one to where there was life. One day there was rain, everything was changing to normal.  Everyone was so happy, all the people said in one big voice” what a crazy adventure it was”.
