The waterfall

Water rushed past.
Roaring fast.
Splashing foaming more and more.
Ripples raced to the shore.

The Rock and the Dock

Once there was a rock and a dock by the ocean.

Rock said "the water..."
"is quiet" Dock interrupted.

Rock barked,  "I..."
"want to fix this problem" Dock interrupted again.

Rock conceded, "you..."
"speak only predicates" confessed Dock.

"I..."agreed Rock
"speak only subjects" replied Dock.

"We..." smiled Rock.
"will only talk about stuff" explained Dock.
"we..." exclaimed Rock
"both understand". Dock acknowledged.

"We.." declared Rock.
"like this" laughed Dock.

The End

A Fish Story

In large groups fish are good under the water. And Yellow Labs are one of the best.

One day Epsilon went for a swim but she strayed too far and guess what she found?  A grouper! 

He was rushing toward her and was about to bite her. The grouper's jaws went snap at Epsilon.

But because of her speed she escaped the large jaws of the grouper and swam home to her parents through a tunnel that connected the ocean to Elijah's fish tank. The grouper chased her through the tunnel and got stuck in the small opening into the fish tank.

The grouper snapped his jaws open and close while Epsilon zipped happily around the tank.  An Albino Zebra Cichlid went to the opening and bit the grouper.  Then the grouper swam away.

The End

The Cook and the Crash

The kooky cook took a book.
Crash!  Books fell with a smash.
The floor shook and
knocked over the trash.

An Owl Story

Wow, an owl bit the old wet muddy tree.  He said "yuck" and spit out some bark.  So he went to visit his mouse friend named Mouse and said "hello Mouse, do you know of any good food nearby?"

And Mouse said "I like cheese, but I don't think you'll like it.  I know of a tree that keeps its leaves in fall."

"Please tell me where it is" begged Owl.

"Okay" said Mouse feeling very relieved.  "It's right over that hill."

"Thank you, thank you" hurried Owl.  And off he flew over to the tree that keeps its leaves all fall. When he arrived he tried some leaves and ... he liked them!

And he was very happy.


The End

The Lizard's Happy Day

Book Report on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

A Christmas Carol was written by Charles Dickens in 1843. This book is about a man named Scrooge who does not like anything about Christmas.

It starts when the ghost of his partner Marley tells him that three spirits (ghosts) will visit him and tell him what Christmas is about.  When the first ghost visits him it shows him Scrooge's past Christmas.  Then when the next ghost visits it shows him Christmas present.  Finally the third ghost shows him Christmas future. And then the last chapter shows what happens to Scrooge after his experience with the ghosts

And I like at the end where he finally truly understands and celebrates Christmas.
But I don't like how long the chapters are.  I would read it again.
