UNTITLED (SAD MICROWAVE-LM SONG)
Story by Rene, Avondale Logandale Elementary School
Once upon a time there was a very sad microwave oven because they did not use it to heat up food. It always cried every night because they did not use it and it wanted to leave from the house and leave to other things and following day they were going to use for the first time but it (the microwave) wasn’t there and they looked for it and called the police and put papers (flyers) saying looking for a microwave oven and at last/finally they found it in a house.

And one based on a series of students’ stories:
