The Snowman from Pluto was very friendly to his friends.  His friends were Larry the acrobatic snowman, and Joshua the dancing snowman.  They all performed an act.  They all lived in Pluto.  They liked Pluto.  Pluto was nice and cold for them.  The people paid them 25 cents for every show they do.  They made an act so they could get the golden razor scooter.  They wanted that more than anything in the galaxy.  They had finally got what they wanted the golden razor scooter, each of them got one.  But one day a bully took their beautiful scooters.  But they didn’t know who took them.  Until they saw the bully and his friends riding with their scooters.  They couldn’t get the scooters back from the bullies so they tricked the bullies.  They made a scooter that wasn’t a real scooter just a replica.  So the bully has seen the scooter so he gave them back and played with the replica so the snowmen were happy.  And they still kept doing new acts and got more money.

I Remember The Day I Broke My Two Front Teeth

By Maria V. , Field
That's Weird, Grandma

I remember the day I broke my two front teeth.  The bad thing was that they weren’t baby teeth, they were the teeth I was going to have for the rest of my life.  I was in the gym.  We were racing suddenly I fell down.  I stand up and my mouth was bleeding.  The gym teacher told Karen to take me to the office.  Then she went back to the gym room.  The nurse told me to wash my mouth, then she saw that I had cut my lips, she put me some ice on my lips.  Two days later my teeth fall out, all that day I was crying on my room.  The next day my mom took me to the dentist.  The dentist put some paste on my broken teeth, she told me not to touch.  Then it got harder.  The dentist told me to take care of my new teeth so they won’t broke again, and I still have my new teeth.
