The big challenge
Have you ever had a weird dream before? Well hear this.
At the dinner table we were talking about our dreams. When it was my turn I said that when I was lying in bed when my door started to creak open. A little mouse crawled in and then it spoke to me it said “if your name is Josh Mead please come with me”. I whispered “no”. Then something magical happened. The mouse grew and grew; while he was growing he changed into a man, a scary man. He growled ”follow me NOW” so I jumped out of bed and asked how did you do that? but he just walked away so I followed and said where are going ? didn’t answer I felt scared. That moment the floor started to disappear. The floor got smaller and smaller. The floor was about a metre small. The unknown man yelled jump but I thought if I jump I wouldn’t know what will happen. But I just did, I didn’t know why.
Suddenly I was in a new world he said it was called Zenith and I stared. I looked around and then I looked back and the guy has vanished. I had a boomerang so I started to throw it and I accidentally killed a man ,then a voice said next round activate ,I realized this was a battle match so I was scared. But I was good so I got to the final round I felt like I was going to burst with butterflies. We chucked the boomerang at the same time and they smashed together. It was a box fight. Luckily I had a pencil in my bag, and it was sharp too. I chucked it super hard at him but he had a special trick he caught it with his teeth. It was creepy then he took it out of his teeth and then chucked it as fast as lightning. I got my bag in front of it, it went in the bag. I got the pencil and chucked it at him. But this time he fainted. Suddenly a king came down and awarded me a crown and then suddenly, RING, RING, RING I woke up and stopped the alarm clock.
THE END

The Worst Birthday in the World - by Izzy
Have you ever wondered what getting pushed into your own birthday cake feels like?
Well I can tell you one thing. It does not feel very nice.
I was walking home from school with my best friend Michal but he wouldn’t talk to me. He kind of sounded like he was giggling. I couldn’t help it.” ok now I’m starting to get a bit suspicious. What’s so funny?” I asked.” It’s just that your mum has organized a fairy party for you”. He giggled. I was shocked! I didn’t know what to say. I tried not to show how I was feeling but really I was as annoyed as a mad bull at mum.
When I got home I went straight to my room. Mum came up to see me. I told her that I was really annoyed that she made my birthday a fairy party. Then I asked who she had invited. I paused. Mum had invited the meanest girl in school. Victoria!! One time a
little boy was swinging on the monkey bars and for no reason she pulled on his feet and he fell and broke his leg. Oh and that time when she pushed that little girl face first into the mud. The little girl was so scared of her that she never came back to the school ever again.
The days slowly past and I got nervosa and nervosa as the fairy party got closer and closer. Finally the day came. Victoria arrived and I went down stairs in my little fairy costume. As I was going down stairs I caught a sight of my cake. Wow it was a triple cake. I went over to have a closer look. It was really spectacular. It was splat! Somebody had pushed me into my own cake. Wow it even tasted spectacular. It tasted as spectacular as my mums homemade jam. I slowly lifted my face to see who had done this. I knew it. I would know it even if I had been blind folded. It was Victoria! I ran outside to tell mum. Luckily she called the party off and went inside to get a wet and soapy cloth to wipe me down. Hopefully mum has learnt her lesson not to ever invite Victoria to my party again and especially to ask me to help her to organize my party!
Never ever never let your mum organize your party. Especially not on her own.
