How dare you!

You owe me some new plums!

You were going to eat those

with my fruity-looty Fruit Loops!

Also, you owe me a new ice box!

You slammed it too hard and made a dent!

I’m so mad.

Ode to Cats

Fern Murray, Age 7

You are very soft
You are different colors and shapes
You are like a furry lion
You are mostly clumsy like a squirrel
Meow, Meow, Meow, Meow
You are lazy like a sloth
You purr when you are happy
You like fish and cat food of course
You are fun
Meow, Purr, Meow

How to Survive a Fighting Poodle

Fern Murray, Age 7
Logan Elementary


First, you are walking in the dog park for no reason at all, and then a poodle for no reason at all jumps at you.

Then, you take out a sword that you have randomly. Then, take all the fur off so the poodle is naked. It will hide but it won’t hurt it.

Next, you turn around but there’s tons of green poodles with one eye!!! Then you sing and they are happy. Then you go home, but when you get to your house there are bulldogs on the roof.

Last, they jump down and you put them in a tree.

If the bulldogs get down, take them to the pound.
