8 mAT I m GOING TO BE mm i grovj up When I grow up, I am going to be a vet, and an animal boarder. I will let elephants run in the forests, the horses graze in the fields, aiid the dogs will run around the house. Every morning I v ill take the animals two by two to exercise. If an animal has a nightmare it will come to bed with me. The sick animals will stay inside. There v;ill be a big patch of grass and trees growing in the basement. The patch of grass and trees will be for the sick pets to use for their toilet. Philippa l Jhitby, Age 9 Prep. 3. S PRING Spring! Spring! The robin did sing, It ' s here at last And it didn ' t come fast. The groundhog slo rly went down to the bog To tell his friend, the frog. The frog said, You silly thing! ' I knew it v as Spring By the look of everything. The fairies were busy Painting the ski blue And sticking the leaves with glue. Noma Guy, Prep. 2 8 years.

9. PETS I had a little pup He drank from a cup, I had a little rabbit, He had a special habit. I had a red parrot, And he ate a raw carrot, I have a baby ape, And he ate a purple grape. The aniriial pictures that I drew I would like to shov; to you. Sarah Stevens Prep. II Age 7. THE WORST THING I DID The worst thing I did, was pulling the car brake. Three years ago one day, in the middle of winter, I got up early in the morning to get dressed. Then when my brother and I were dressed, v e went out in our car. After about ten minutes, we were getting restless and my brother started a fight j I immediately got mad, so I took off his hat and hung it on the gear shift. After I did this, my brother pulled it off vjhich shifted the gear shift and the car went rolling across the street, VJhen that happened, I started running up Dutch Village Road and hid behind a house. And I was lucky I didn ' t get it. Andrew Clark, Age 7 Prep, 3.
