haha, told in a childlike manner, quick, to the point, and wildly creative.

This story is a ficly recreation of a 25 handwritten (on notebook paper) page story I turned in for extra credit in fifth grade to Miss Brooks at Schneider Elementary School.

She was impressed and took me downstairs to read it to a sixth grade english class. That afternoon, two sixth graders beat me up on the way home from school, presumably for being a wise guy.

I subsequently declined all future read-alouds outside my own classroom. :)

ROFL – literally – I just got back in my chair!

This is absolutely beautiful! The ingenuousness of youth inspires the greatest of writers.
I loved the slingshot solution at the end. Plus, your commentary is priceless.

Great stuff! []o)

I agree with nagi, fantastic imagination! Haha. Reminded me of those old cartoons where the character pulls random stuff out of their seemingly not-there-three-seconds-ago pocket. Very funny! Thanks for participating.

@Bob, aww that’s a terrible ending to have had for a writing experience!
Notetoself, read challenge before commenting. ;)
