Man Saves Dog.

A spaceman bravely walks out into the icy milkyway. He was going out of space but when he was about to go he had a call from someone that he didn’t know. He answered the phone call and then he said “Hello”. And it was a little girl she was so upset so she said to the man “can you please help me”, and then the man said “what do you need help with’’. Then the little girl said “ I went on a trip to see the space factory and then me my class tried, on some space suits and my puppy was with me so I found a dog space, suit and put it on my puppy and then, my puppy, was playing around and saw something and now he is stuck in space”.

So he said “ don’t worry little girl I will find your puppy and then I will give it to you”. After a while the man got ready to go out of space. He went in his rocket and then went out of space to search for the puppy. The man was so nervous that he would let the girl down. But he never gave up. Finally he saw the puppy. The puppy was afraid in space he was shaking. So the man picked up the dog pushed the button to go back inside the factory and took the suit off the dog. So the man went in his car went to the little girls house and gave her dog back to her.

The next day the girl was so proud she had her little puppy back. Her mum went outside but while she was walking outside she tripped over a big box. Her mum said “Isabelle there's a package just for you”. So Isabelle ran straight outside and her puppy was following her and on the package it said, “Hi you may not know me but I was the man who saved your dog so heres a gift for you”. Inside the box she was so happy because the man gave Isabelle, and her dog a space suit she was so happy The end.

Magic Beans!!!!!

Magic beans!!!

On a sunday afternoon at 1:00pm on the 24 on may Jack was going on a walk. Jack and his mum lived in america in a small village. Until jack saw a wise man.

The wise man said “ hey young boy do want a trade for these beans” said the wise man. Then Jack said “ nah its just beans” But the wise man said “ oh no these aren’t just ordinary beans these are magic beans”. So Jack said “Okay”. Then Jack gave over his donkey and the wise man gave his magic beans. But the wise man said “ plant it in your garden and it will change your life”.

So the wise man took off. Jack went home and was going out to his backyard but his mum saw the beans in his pocket and said “ Jack come over here”. So Jack went to his mum. And his mum said “ whats that”, then Jack said “what do you mean”. So Jacks mum pulled the magic beans out of his pocket and she said “you silly boy go to your room”. Then Jack went up to his room. After Jack went up to his room his mum chucked the magic beans outside.

It started raining. Then the magic beans started growing. Jack woke up and had breakfast but when he was having breakfast he couldn’t believe it. There was a huge beanstalk. So Jack walked outside And looked at the beanstalk. After he looked at the beanstalk he started climbing.

He was so tired but he was still climbing. Finally he was finished climbing. When he was walking he saw a castle. So he ran inside of the castle and saw a giant sleeping. Then he looked around the room and saw a chicken laying golden eggs. Then Jack stole the chicken and a golden harp. The giant woke up and said “ hey give me back my stuff”. But Jack said “NEVER”. But the giant was chasing him down the beanstalk and ran as fast as he could but the giant fell down the beanstalk and then, the giant died so Jack and his mother was no longer poor again.
