My favorite game...by Lion

My favorite game is Sorry.  The way you play is you have a color of green, yellow, blue, or red. Then you draw a card from the deck.  If you get a Sorry card then you bump them back to start.  The point of the game is to get all your pieces home.

I would...by Emmett

I would look away from the coast.  I would also see a car better suited for the polluted city.  Fields of beautiful tulips, roosters fooling around, and a farmer going to harvest. He drags out a farming apparatus, the largest I've ever seen.  There are many similar fields of grain, some vaguely familiar vegetables.  Although he doesn't have the biggest variety of vegetables and grain, he still has lots of the stuff.  An untied beagle wanders around.  This is what I would see. 

If I was on top of a mountain...by Katie

If I was on top of a mountain or on the top of a building in the city, I would be freaked out.  I hate being up really high. Whenever I'm up high and I look down, everything looks dizzy, except when I'm on a balance beam.  If I had a choice, I'd pick to be down on the ground.

  

Long ago...by Emmett

Long ago there were 3 gods.  They were arguing about who was the best.  Suddenly, Guntera, the lord of the night, land, and caves, had an idea.  "We shall each choose an animal from our own domain to compete in contests to determine who is the best."  The others quickly agreed.  Guntera chose the bat.  Unora, god of the sea, chose the puffin, and Wizown, god of the air, chose the eagle.  The first test was aerial flying.  Puffin went first.  He labored into flight and flew through the course.  Next, it was Eagles' turn.  He proudly took flight, but he found that he was too big for the course!  Then it was Bat's turn to try.  He quickly flew through the course and was proclaimed the winner of the first event!
