IF WE COULD LEARN FROM ANIMALS (A Child's Story) Once upon a time as all good stories must begin, there lived a lively green turtle by the name of Homer. Homer lived along in a small, nice house on the edge of Flanagun Land. Now Flanagun Land was a beautiful place with tall green grass and red velvet trees, and purple silk rocks and snazzy blue pools of nice, clean water. One day devilish Homer went for a crawl in Flanagun Land. As he crawled along he suddenly spotted a yellow polka-dotted squirrel sitting in the green grass eating nuts. He cautiously ventured over to the squirrel and softly asked, What are you doing on such a fine, splendid morning? The squirrel answered, Just sitting here eating nuts and soaking up some beautiful sunshine. Would you like a nut? Homer thought for a minute and said, Well, I never tried nuts before but I guess I will just this once, thank you. So the yellow polka-dotted squirrel named Fred gave him a nut and they became good friends. Little by little their group got bigger. First, they met Malsy, the pink mouse, then Bronson, the big red owl and then lastly, they met Zip-zap, the cute orange rabbit. They all got to be good friends and lived very happily. In Flanagun Land there were no fights or wars and everyone cared for each other. They lived by the motto: What Flanagun Land needs is Love. Don't you wish the world was like that? —Valerie Gandolfo Fall, 1971 UNTITLED Stoppit! No! Don't! Help! The cockroach scrambled across the tile. Please don't squish me Mister. The large black boot smashed the life from him. Five minutes later back in the cozy insulation the Johnsons were informed of their eldest son's death. Mr. Johnson called a family assembly. They had seven children, their eldest 18 months, the youngest one month; all boys. Mrs. Johnson was in a sobbing coma. She would be crying but cockroaches don't have tear ducts. In her three full years she had 12 litters; all of her offspring had been killed. This would be her last litter since she was so old. She could hear Father talking to the children. He was only two years old and this was his eighth litter. She could hear footsteps coming toward them. The screw at the top of the light socket they used for a window was un- screwing from the bottom. The huge man-face was looking at her. Then the insecticide nozzle stuck in the hole. She was knocked down by the air pressure. She could not get up. Before she died she could hear the screams of horror from the children. —Dwight Bennett 8th Grade Spring, 1971
