The Adventure With Dad

I was given an assignment a few days ago to write a story about an adventure that I would like to have. I would like to share it with you.

Once upon a time, when I was about 3, during a storm, my dad built a tiny submarine. Though the water was rapid, the tide was high, so my dad and I got inside and plunged into the deep Amazon River. We enjoyed it at first, looking at all the fish, eels, and pink Amazon Dolphins. We totally forgot that this was dangerous! Soon we saw big piranas fighting each other. We were excited to witness the fight, and see what would happen. Soon the biggest of all the piranas noticed us and started to swim toward us. He started tearing up our submarine! We swam away just in time, but, the current was so strong dad and I got separated! A kind and friendly crocodile saw me struggling in the water and helped me on his back. I was carried out of the Amazon River! The crocodile put me down, then went to get dad. He returned with dad and he was okay. I was okay too. We thanked the crocodile and got home safe and sound! It was quite an adventure!

THE END

Wow! What an imagination, Ellie! And to think you would like to have that happen -- I don't like to live that dangerously. You are a good writer. Keep it up!

Love, Nanna
