Once upon a time there was a little boy called Willow who lived in a igloo. Willow only had one mitten, which was for his left hand, his right hand was always so cold he couldn't play his fiddle. Willow said a prayer to God and sang a hymn asking for someone to come and help him. God sent a pretty, mysterious politician who gave Willow a magic crystal. He told him to crush it like a biscuit, put it in a bag and go swimming a long distance around the lake. Willow done as he was told and when he returned he found a warm quilt with a mitten trim around it. Willow's right hand was never cold again.

The Crystal Biscuit
Over the christmas holidays we done all the familiar things but this christmas was pretty amazing. I decided to trim the tree and fiddle with the decorations. Mum came home with a box of special biscuits.
We opened them and out rolled a crystal biscuit.It travelled some distance before the finale, it burst open with a hugh display and division of colour. it was very historic and it mystified us all. I don't think anyone else had exploding biscuits for christmas.....

THE ICE CRYSTAL


The ice crystal is a historic crystal in the North Pole.
To find it you must find the magic fiddle, which is
found in a secret igloo that is at the South Pole. But
beware of the BEAST OF THE NORTH which
guards the fiddle. Some people are willing to do it
and some think they are crazy. In the past a little politician who wrote a historic hymn decided to walk to the South Pole with a stick of willow to find the fiddle.
He went a great distance eating a biscuit and wearing his mittens. He got no sympathy from the Beast of the North
who hypnotised him. THE END

Once upon a time there was an inventor called Bob. He tried to invent a system to create a crystal biscuit. All he needs is a special formula to make the biscuit crystal clear. However, he is missing one little ingredient - willow. He needs to find it but how. At the back of his mind he knows that Marvin the Politician grows willow trees in his back garden. Marvin lived in a pretty igloo on the historic North Coast, a long distance away! Bob devised a plan! When Marvin was at his long division maths meeting, Bob would swim to the North Coast, hypnotise the butler, slip into the garden and trim off some branches of willow. Bob would then stick them under his quilt and make his way back home. If Bob’s plan worked he would be able to make the biscuit crystal clear!

Once there was a very little man called
Sam. He all ways slept under a quilt.
He saw someone very familiar but didn’t
Mind him. He was a big distance away
from him. So he started fiddling with his thumbs
and he looked at the window and there was a picture of a igloo.
Sam found a crystal lying on the ground he stopped to pick it up
But he saw someone following him and left the crystal there
And ran away so Sam went home and got some biscuits out of the biscuit
Tin. Sam ran right through a big finale and he ruined the whole thing.
He bumped into a historic museum while he was running but the man was trying
To bring Sam to the museum the whole time but he still was running like crazy
For about 5 days.


The End.

Willow
Our neighbour got a new little kitten,it was very pretty with cream fur,a biscuit colour.They called the kitten Willow.
Until Willow got familiar with its new home,my neighbour was willing to let her sleep on top of the quilt on her bed.Willow loved to fiddle with a ball of wool or a mitten.
Willow was mysterious, always hiding, once we found her in the garden pond swimming badly to the edge, when she got to a distance we could reach her, my neighbour rescued her.

Division, division, division!!!

Once there was a little pretty and mysterious girl called Willow, Willow loved division.
Well she loved everything about maths,she liked distance,division and all the rest but over all she loved her division.
One day, her class was going swimming, but Willow was willing to stay in school and do some maths.
She was an odd little girl, who fiddled with things a lot. Willow wanted to be a politician when she grew up. So she eventually got over maths and got her dream job.



The End!!!

One day I ate a biscuit which didn't agree with my stomach. I suddenly took a serious illness and my sisters had no sympathy for me. I rushed off to the hospital which wasn't a long distance away.
After a short period of time we arrived at the hospital which looked like an igloo. The doctor began to hypnotise me as he asked me what my symptoms were. The doctor said this was a mysterious illness and he was mystified. While I was there I met a politician who also had this illness. She was pretty and looked very familiar.

Jake finding the distance

Once there was a boy called Jake. Jake wanted to find out the distance from his house to the swimming pool. Jakes mum said do you want to find it out by miles or yards. Jake said he wanted to find the distance in meters. His mum said that Jake needs to buy a pedometer to measure his distance to the swimming pool. So Jake went to find a pedometer at the shop there was all different designs to choose from Jake didn’t know what one to pick. The first one he looked at he had to fiddle with the buttons so he put it back. The second one he looked at he thought it was the right one for him he had bought it and found his measurement. THE END
