Here is a story Samuel wrote in his notebook last week (in bed at night when we thought he was sleeping...). On the weekend, he typed it up into Word. Enjoy :)
The Strange adventure
The Strange adventure
Once upon a time there were four children named Zac, Polly, Sam and Max. They were all friends. Zac was fourteen years old and he wanted strange powers that could go through walls. Sam was eight years old and he wanted strange powers too, but powers that could flash bits of hot burning fire at people. Polly did not want strange powers she just wanted another girl to play with. Polly was ten years old. Max was thirteen years old, he had no friends to play with except a little boy called Otto he was five years old.
.
Polly, Sam and Max were a bit jealous of Zac because he was so older. Max wasn’t that jealous of Zac. Max was jealous of Zac because Max thought Zac was smarter. Zac kept making up excuses about people thinking that he is jealous. Everyone is jealous of Zac.

Early in the morning, Zac and Max went to Polly’s Uncle’s room. Zac saw a key hole. He told Max.
Zac and Max yelled out as hard as they could, “Sam! Polly! Come here!” “Where’s here?” said Sam.
“In Polly’s Uncle’s room,” said Max.
Sam and Polly came rushing up the stairs.
“Sam, Polly, look at this,” said Zac.
“Far out!” shouted Sam and Polly.
“A hole in the door,” said Sam.
“It’s not just a hole,” grinned Zac, “it’s a keyhole.”
“Let’s have a little peek through,” said Polly.
The four of them agreed. So all four of them peeked through the keyhole, and with a whoosh of wind, they sort of flew into another world.
Zac spotted a small dwarf peering at them from the bushes.
“Hey, what are you doing? Sneaking up on us like that?” said Sam.
“I saw you arrive in this world. I thought I might give you some information about this world.” Said the friendly dwarf.
“We might actually need some information about this world.” said Polly.
“Okay then,” the dwarf agreed, “What sort of imformation do you need?”
“Firstly, we need to know where we are and secondly we need to know how to get out of this world,” explained Zac.
“That’s easy,” said the dwarf. “This world is called Wonderworld and the way to get out of this world is to find a broken tree and jump through it and you will find yourself in the world of men. Your world.”
“Thank you,” said all four.
All four started looking around for the broken tree.
“How are we ever going to find a broken tree?” asked Max.
“Well it sounds pretty magic so it will probably be by itself,”said Polly.
“A broken tree!” yelled Sam.
Zac and Polly came rushing to the tree and they fell straight in. Then Sam and Max held hands and jumped into the world of men. They were back in Polly’s Uncle’s room.

THE END
THE END
I love how Carissa is climbing up, and Sam is jumping straight over her while Reuben is grooving in the background.
This is one of my faves. Love the expression of delight on Carissa's face.
I love the angle on this one
