Awesome's Migration

Once upon a time there was a horse named Awesome in a boat. He was brownish red with a black mane. He used to live in North America but he was going to Europe to live there. When they were off the coast a hurricane blew him to Honduras.

Awesome was sad at first, but now he likes it because the son of a blacksmith found him. The boy was named Hondur and he had a good friend named Marco. They liked to ride Awesome together.

"Bad horse!" someone shouted. Hondur, Marco and Awesome ran fast. They ran and ran until they could not hear the man anymore.

Awesome was happy being a pet of Hondur. They had many fun adventures together.

Frog and Toad at Best Friend Island

Once upon a time there was a frog and a toad who were best friends. Their names were Frog and Toad. They lived on an island called Best Friends Island. You have to be best friends to live there.

One snowy, cold January morning, a dirty, scary looking ship sailed up to the island. On board there were 10 mean and rough pirates. They had come to take over Best Friend Island. If they did, Frog and Toad and all their friends would be slaves!

"Toad," said Frog, who was very afraid, "what are those pirates going to do?"

"I don't know," answered Toad nervously.

"I have an idea! Let's sneak up on the pirate's ship and steal their cannon. With the cannon we can frighten them away."

"How in the world can we steal a cannon? Aren't those things too heavy to carry?" worried Toad.

"Don't worry, "said Frog, "all pirate cannons have wheels on them."

Toad was excited about the plan. He said, "Let's do it!"

So, they sneaked up onto the ship after the pirates came onto the land to find the best friends. The pirates were looking for slaves. Frog and Toad found the cannon, they pushed it to the side of the ship and let it blast! The pirates were still near the ship and heard the loud boom. It frightened them so bad that they ran into the water and started swimming and swimming back to their island! Some of Frog and Toad's friends were afraid too and started to swim away.

"STOP!" cried Frog and Toad. "We're safe now. It was just us who fired the cannon!"

Then the best friends turned around and swam back. They said to Frog and Toad, "You saved our pretty island! 3 cheers for Frog and Toad! Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!"

Tom & Jerry and The World of Goo

Short story written by Elijah Autry

Illustrated by Elijah Autry

Once upon a time, there were two boys named Tom and Jerry, playing "World of Goo" on the computer. On one of the levels they couldn't figure the game out because everything was made out of spikes.

Then, they heard...

ding-a-ling-a-ling.

One of their phones was ringing. Tom went to go answer his phone and looked to see who it was. To his surprise, it said "Robber" on the Caller ID. He didn't answer his phone, he just ran back to the computer to watch Jerry play "World of Goo". Jerry was still trying to figure out how to win the game.

Tom had an idea. He told Jerry to keep going down to the bottom where there were no spikes. When he got there, Tom was right - there were no spikes! Because of this, Jerry could build the goo tower and build it up past all of the spikes. If they built it high enough, it would reach the vacuum tube at the top and they would win the game!

They worked hard and did exactly what Tom suggested . . . and guess what? They won the game!

Eli and Ethan-dog

This story is part of an assignment I had to write for school. I was given the picture below first and then had to write a story about it.

Snow was falling from the sky so thick it looked like a sheet of paper. 10 year old, Eli, from Michigan was bored. He couldn't play outside because it was too snowy and cold. He was sitting on the floor of his bedroom with his dog, Ethan, reading a book about knights. Eli was excited because he liked knights and he wished to be one.

I typed this story myself.

Mommy proofread. :)

Jack and Annie's Adventure

A Short Story Written by Elijah Autry

Typed by Mom

Jack and Annie were in the woods because they wanted to see Morgan, but Morgan was not there!

In the tree house, they found a letter that said that Morgan was under a spell. To free her they had to find four special things:

1) salt water from the ocean

2) flowers from Japan

3) fuel from a diesel train

4) paper from home

Jack and Annie started home to get the paper. Before they got home, the ground started to shake.

Jack asked, "Annie, is it an earthquake?"

"I don't know!"

Suddenly, two ugly monsters jumped out of the ground and started running toward Jack and Annie's house. Jack and Annie ran after them. The monsters reached the house and ran up the stairs. Jack and Annie followed.

When the monsters reached Jack's room, they gobbled up all the paper. Next, they went to Annie's room and ate all her paper.

Jack quickly grabbed a chair from the desk in Annie's room. With Annie's help, Jack threw it at the monsters. The chair hit the monsters right in the middle. The monsters fell backwards, fell out the window and right back into the hole in the ground that they dug. A big, giant boulder fell into the hole on top.

"What are we going to do about the paper for Morgan?" Annie asked.

"I don't know," Jack answered. "Maybe we'll have to ask Mom and Dad to take us to the store now."
