Author's Tea






Bijou's class hosts an "Author's Tea" once a month to allow students to read their stories that they have written and typed to friends and family. I was so excited to get to go and hear Bijou read hers. She was inspired by poor Jimmy's recent accident and had written a clever and wonderful story which I will post below.
My heart was bursting with pride as she fearlessly read her story in a beautifully loud voice. My Biji love!



Once upon a time there was a pirate named Jimmy. He was a peg legged puppy. He was brown with brown eyes and floppy ears. He sailed on his doggie bone ship. He searched many years for his treasure. The treasure was dog biscuits. Sometimes when peg leg Jimmy got angry he would say “aruff!”

Jimmy’s best friend was named Bird. He was a parrot. He was green and his head was yellow. One day they found an island. It was called pirate Puppy Island. Then Jimmy said “land arff!” Then they got off the boat. They dug for two months. Then they finally found the treasure chest. They tried to open it but it didn’t open. Then they saw a keyhole. They needed to find the key. One day on the nineteenth of May he found a key chain with one thousand keys. They tried 700 keys then they fell asleep. The next morning peg leg Jimmy tried 300 more and the last one was the right one!

He opened the chest and started eating the dog biscuits. When he ate them all he was very full. So he went back on his doggie bone ship and sailed away back home. The end.
