“A little magic can take you a long way.” R. Dahl

“I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn't be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.”
“A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.”
“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”

Jack’s Adventures By Maroal Gargahal “I’m going shopping in the enormous town” Jack’s mother said to the boy Friday morning. “So be good and don't get up to mischief. This was a silly thing to say to a small boy any time. It immediately made him wonder what sort of mischief he might get up to. As soon as his mother stepped out, he started investigating the house. In his parent’s room, he jumped on the bed. Then, he went to the mother’s study, where he saw a window and thought that he could escape, but,he would be lost… But then, he heard a little voice... It was the devil talking to him. The devil said “In a FAFALIFI you will be there and in another “FAFALIFI you can explore the town all by yourself”. He went out of the house in a “fafalifi” and the street was as silent as a desert. He started walking deeper and deeper into the town. After a while, a woman got him and locked him in a gigantic dark lab. The woman was planning to do an experiment with the boy. She was planning to make him disappear! After another while, he saw a minute window, but it was too high. When the woman went to the toilette, he got a ladder, he climbed up and squeezed out before the woman realized. He quickly ran back to his house. Mum was not there when he arrived, but suddenly mum opened the door and said “What did you do?” And he answered, “I was being good mommy”.

The Magic Chocolate By:Aguoald Gallahl On the brownest, saddest, worst village in Viedma, lived little Penny Dillon with her mom, Patsy Dillon. Little Penny was a sweet, cute, beautiful girl who had a big, big passion for chocolate. She was 6 years old, and she had long straight hair. Its color was brown, light brown. She was tall, thin, adorable, and had big, light-blue eyes. But little Penny had only one terrible and horrible problem. She was as naughty as Peter Rabbit. The village where she lived was full of houses, but the nicest one was the one of this girl, with white, clean and perfect windows, an elegant blue door, and shiny curtains. One day, her mother, Patsy, told her “Little Penny, Little Penny! I'm going shopping. I will be back in 8 hours, so don’t get up to mischief”. SLAM!! The mother slammed the door as she left. That obviously would be stupid to say to Penny, because she was already thinking what sort of mischief she would get up to... This little girl went out to the village, once her mother had left, and she wanted one thing... Chocolate!! She went to the chocolate store and asked for one, but they didn’t give it to her. Poor Penny! She was so hungry! She wanted chocolate! When she was already going back home, she found a big chocolate on the floor!! It said: Marshmallow chocolate. She thought she was dreaming. It was her favorite! She got it and ran back home. As soon as she was at home, she 5
unwrapped the chocolate, and left the wrapping on her mother’s bed. Then, she ate the chocolate. As soon as she finished, she fell asleep. When she woke up, she was about to faint. She was in chocolate land! She looked around her. WOW! It was really incredible. She ate the leaf of a tree. The chocolate was brown, delicious, juicy, and best of all it had caramel inside! She loved it! She started gobbling up anything she saw! But Penny was afraid of one thing… The Gobbler. He was as terrible as a lion. The terrible, horrible toothless, pickless, murderest Gobbler was a great beast. Everyone hated it. The Gobbler was a dinosaur, with big bubblegum eyes, and blue-yellow dots everywhere! Suddenly, Penny turned back and… SWOOSH!!! The Gobbler swallowed her up. Penny looked around. It was ugly to be in there, with the liver, guts, intestines, and stomach. ”Yuck!” she thought. It was as creepy as the Grand High Witch! Actually, it wasn't so bad to be there because everything was made of chocolate… ”Yummy!” Suddenly, she started thinking, and then it happened. She started eating the dinosaur’s tail from the inside until she made a hole. She jumped out and was free! She looked at the floor and she immediately recognized something… It was the same chocolate she had eaten before! She ate it all once again and, in a jiffy, she was back at home. Penny was in the kitchen when she heard the key sound. It was her mom. She ran to put her pajamas on. When she had finished, she went to her bed and fell asleep. Her mother noticed the paper wrap on her bed and thought it was the paper of the chocolate she had given to Penny the day before.
The Enormous Dirty Witch By:Viche Cadhal One dark and spooky Halloween night, a little, shy and lonely boy called Andy was trick-or-treating in his neighborhood. He was dressed up as the 6
“Chapulin Colorado”. When he knocked on the doors the people laughed and gave him lots of sugary and yummy sweets. That scary night, he crossed two big, ugly and popular boys. The boys were bad with Andy because one day Andy kicked them when they were bothering his best friend. Those boys forced Andy and his cute black dog to go to the Haunted House with them. The Haunted House was enormous, dirty and quiet on the outside, but in the inside, it was tidy, noisy and dark. Andy and his dog were frightened and very nervous. The two boys laughed at them. They explored the creepy house until an enormous witch called Gramny Drofamny ate the two boys, “Crunch! Crunch!”.After that, she caught Andy’s black dog and ate him in one bite “Crunch!”. Andy continued exploring to get revenge for his dog’s death. In a small room, he found pale vampires, transparent phantoms, red and angry devils and half-dead zombies hiding in the old closet from the enormous, dirty and scary witch. Andy asked “Do you want to kill the bad witch?” The vampires, phantoms, devils and zombies were tired of hiding from the spooky witch and quickly answered “Yes!”. They told Andy that if the witch went out of the house, she would die. Andy thought for a long while and said that if they opened the massive door and stood next to the door and then moved aside, the witch would continue running and die.
7
What Andy had thought for a long while happened. The witch went on running as fast as Flash Gordon past the door and “Boom! Boom!” the witch exploded .The vampires, phantoms, devils and zombies celebrated their victory. Andy went back home, but every Halloween he goes to the Haunted House to visit the haunted house inhabitants.
The Magic Aunt By: Cande Dagill “I'm going shopping in the village”, Mary´s mother said to Mary on Saturday morning. ”So be a good girl and don't get up to mischief. ”This was a really silly thing to say to a small girl at any time. It immediately made her wonder what sort of mischief she might get up to. The mother usually said to her “Beware! Beware! If you make a mess, you'll get punished and I'll get a stress”. Mary was blond and naughty, she had big and enormous eyes, she had a really little mouth. Soon after her mother left, Mary thought and thought, ”I’ve got it!” she said. First, she made a pillow fight with her brother... Until all the feathers came out! And they broke some of the windows! They also broke some picture frames that crashed to the ground! Then, she used the blender. She put in some sauce, carrots, and pasta, 8
but she didn't put the lid on and everything spread out. All the kitchen was a mess!. After that, she went on to amazon in the computer and bought a zebra and a squishy, furry animal named Puffle. She put the zebra in the playroom, but the animal broke the TV. Then, she hung all her undies and clothes from the dusty fan, and turned it on. All the clothes came flying out! Her mother had said that she was coming back at night, but now she phoned Mary and said that she was coming earlier… Everything was a mess! Mary thought as hard as a scientist. She remembered that her aunt, Millie, had magic powers, so she called her and told her everything that had happened. She asked “Can you come and help me, please?” Luckily, her aunt cried “Yes!” Anxiously, the girl walked around all the house, her aunt was taking a long time to come... But after a few minutes, she finally arrived. The aunt shouted “Wow!” Then she snapped her fingers and the kitchen was superduper clean. She snapped them again and the zebra disappeared. She snapped them once again and there was a new TV. Then again and all the feathers went back into the pillow, the windows got fixed and the picture frames came back onto the wall. Luckily, the aunt let Mary keep the furry Puffle. When her mother came back home and saw everything super clean, she asked “Why are you here, Millie?” Aunt Millie said “Because I wanted to be with my niece.” And the mother never knew about the mess, but Mary was never ever going to be a naughty girl again.
The Magic Chocolate By: Goro Dahl Shawn couldn’t sleep All the kids in London were shouting to buy a big bar of milk chocolate at Cadbury’s shop. Cadbury won almost 1 million dollars per day. One night, while he 9
was trying to sleep, an 11 year old kid called Shawn said , “Why on Earth do people only eat that chocolate?“. His brother, Mark, answered “Cadbury’s chocolate is the finest chocolate in this huge world”. “It really is!” said Shawn. That night, Shawn dreamed that he invented a chocolate that was as delicious as light red salmon. Next morning, Shawn wanted to share his dream with Mark, so he ran to Mark’s bedroom. It was 7:00 am o'clock, so, obviously, Mark wanted to sleep. Shawn waited one hour and woke Mark up. “What’s up Shawn?” he asked. “Why don't we create a milky, deliciously, almondery black chocolate?” asked Shawn excitedly. Mark laughed almost two hours and Shawn was that two hours but Shawn was trying to say that it was not a joke. The two brothers made a bet. If they won less than 1000 dollars in the first month, Shawn would wash Mark’s clothes for ten years, but if they won more than 1000 dollars in the first month, Mark would buy Shawn all UK video games. They shook hands and in a jiffy they bought the milk and the chocolate. In another jiffy, they baked the chocolate. “Bake, bake, bake, and bake doing this is as easy as a cake”, Shawn and Mark sang together, “Ah this smells great!” During the first two days, they won 20 dollars. The next two weeks, they won 500 dollars… Cadbury’s boss started to be worried. Mark and Shawn had lots of clients and Cadbury was winning almost 600 dollars less per day. But one day, they won 0 dollars! The bad, evil, and fat Cadbury’s boss sent two ninja thieves to Shawn’s house. The Japanese black-belt ninjas stole Shawn’s recipe. They sent the recipe to Cadbury’s boss who was as happy as a cat eating a mouse “Muahaha” he laughed when he started making that chocolate… After that, all the kids went back to Cadbury.
10
Mark and Shawn had to come up with a new plan. ”Mark we have to create another chocolate. This one must have caramel, oreo, milk, strawberry, and yogurt.” As soon as they made that chocolate, the kids won 1 million of dollars. With that money, they opened a store. A few days later, they were selling chocolate, but suddenly the phone rang “Riiing! Riing!!!” When Shawn answered the phone he heard “Hello Shawn. We have seen the security cameras in your house and the two ninjas that stole your recipe. We investigated and those two ninjas work for Cadbury, so we sent Cadbury’s boss to jail.” Mark felt happy and thought that everything was okay but Shawn cried “I want all my video games. NOW!!!”
James and the Giant Chocolate By: Finiahl In a small and little town, there were old, dirty lonely houses. Almost no one lived around. But there was one that was VERY BIG, NEW AND PRETTY. A boy called James and his parents lived there.
11
One day, James was in his house and he heard a sound “Click, clock, click”. His mom came and gave him a giant, bright new present. He opened it and it was the BIGGEST chocolate OF THE WORLD. Since he was spoiled, he didn't like it. He started to cry and to break all the chocolate. He made a mess. Suddenly, he realised he was getting smaller and smaller. He went to the mirror and saw he was turned into a cat! His mom looked for him everywhere. She went crazy, she started to cry and called the police. She yelled “I will never find James”. A few days later, James’ Mom found a cat. She didn't know it was James but she said to the cat ”You could live with us in James’ room” And so James lived in his own house, but turned into a fat cat.
Dirty and Revolting Snipnim by: Mr. Roalmax Vidahl The Snipnims lived in the forest of Frin. One stormy afternoon, a group of them went for a walk. They were so distracted by the flutting and clucking of the strange birds that they tripped and fell into a magical, out-of-this-world gooey pond. When the first Nipnim came out of the pond, he noticed that all the others that came out looked disgusting, dirty, revolting, and smelled like pig pens! He yelled and cried out “We smell like pigs and we are so dirty and revolting that we will stay like this forever. Only because of that stupid little magical pond!” Not too far away, there was a house that belonged to Gili. He was a boy that only had a mother. He lived in a little house beside the forest. He dreamed of going to the strange but famous forest of Frin. Once, when the mother went shopping to the village, he decided to escape to the forest because he knew no one was looking at him and because his mom didn't let him. When he got there, he saw strange things like flower buds were human heads. The grass grew 1 km long every hour as if they had put a magic spell that made it grow tremendously fast. The branches did not have bark. It was as strange as flying cows in the air. You could never imagine such a forest. 12
Suddenly, he heard a snicking and fligling noise. He thought it was a... ”Help! Aaaaaaaaaaaaah! I need help” It was a tiny winy sized animal. It was a bad, naughty, dirty and revolting Snipnim that hated humans.
Time later, his mother got to the little house. She knew that Gili loved the forest and getting into mischief. She left the bags of food in the kitchen and in a jiffy she was in the forest calling for him desperately to see if he was in danger. The mother went deeper and deeper into the forest. She saw a massive group of creatures doing something strange together. When the mother looked at them better, the creatures (Snipnim) saw that strange huge mother. They were so afraid that they rushed away as quick as light. They ran to the end of the forest and found themselves in front of a minute, dirty and cobwebby house. The door was open because of the mother’s rush, so they went into it. They were fascinated with that house, they had everything in there. When Gili and his mother returned, they saw the house was disgusting, ugly looking and full of dirty and revolting Snipnims. They had to stay in the forest of Frin forever and every day they went to see if the Snipnims had gone away away... but until today, we still don't know…

Tim and His Adventure By: Lupe Dahliene “Son, I'm going to the forest of Feihcsim”, Tim's mother said to him on Saturday morning. “So be a good boy and don't get up to mischief”. That was a silly, a very silly thing to say to a boy at any time. It immediately made him wonder what sort of mischief he might get up to in the forest of Feihcsim. Tim started to walk and walk... always deeper and deeper into the forest, so much that HE GOT LOST in that magical, strange forest. Tim was little, nice, sweet. After walking for many days, he found a little girl. She was nice, with blue eyes and golden hair. Tim asked the girl “Why are you sad, little girl. “Because the huge, ugly Mean Queen kicked me out of her castle” whispered the girl. “You have to save me, please!” Tim doubted but, in the end, he accepted “I'm going to save all the poor girls and boys in this strange forest” Tim said. Tim and the little girl arrived at the dark castle. They made a potion that was going to turn the Queen into a mouse. They entered the castle and hid. The Mean Queen was about to eat. “Perfect! We can put the potion in her glass” Tim said excited “You are very clever” shouted the girl. They quickly put the magic potion in her glass and they hid under a table. When the Mean Queen drank her juice, she immediately turned into a mouse. Tim and the little girl started to dance and celebrate. Suddenly, Tim shouted “I have to go with my mother!” Tim went to find his mother, and when he did, they went
14
back to their house. Tim never ever talked about his adventure with the little girl.
Danny and the Chocolate Medicine By: Santi Lemdahl Far away from where my enormous factory is, I helped this doctor and his country. Danny was a very famous doctor but he lived in a country called Yamiscar. He was a wise, intelligent, and friendly man. In that country, there was a disease that could only be cured with all the things that a medicine has... plus the world’s best chocolate. The disease was very strange, mortal, and it was called “Chowardie”. Big warts would grow on your face that wouldn't let you breathe and you would die. When charlie heard about the medicine and the problem. He thought they needed him and Wonka’s chocolate factory, since everybody loved it a lot. Charlie knew that Wonka’s chocolate was the best so he called Danny who lived far away. Charlie told him all about the chocolate he made because obviously it was the best one. Danny didn’t know about the chocolate because Yamiscar was not at all famous. He thought about it one time. Then two times. And on the third
time, he accepted. Danny flew a long time, but finally, he got to the airport. Charlie, being so famous, was waiting for him with a lot of paparazzi who were taking lots of
15
photos. Danny had all of his medicine instruments with him. He would only need the Oompa-loompas putting the best chocolate into it. The famous kid gave him some chocolate of his factory. The doctor liked it as much as a dog likes a huge and tasty bone. When they got to the factory they heard a noise: “CRASH!� A horrible worker who hated Yamiscar broke the tubes where the chocolate was transported from one place to another. Charlie was very angry so he entered the room and fired the worker. Luckily, the plumbers had the spare parts. Once it was all working, the Oompa-loompas could finally make the medicine. Danny found out that the infected people were starting to grow little warts. That was bad news. Fortunately, the doctor went to his country and saved the people on time. The inhabitants found out the medicine as sweet as candy, that wasn't strange because Charlie’s chocolate was perfect. This story I just told you is about how this little, strange and quiet country was saved.
James and the Giant Chocolate By Lolahl In an enormous, big, large and friendly town. There lived a boy called James. This boy was happy. James went out of his little, tiny and dirty house. He went to ask for money in the huge, massive and humongous street because he was as poor as a mouse. He wanted a big, giant and delicious chocolate for his birthday.
16
A large amount of people gave him a lot of money because he was nice. Suddenly, a band of bad robbers took all of the money. They pushed him very hard. He got hurt and bumped his head. He went to his home crying very loud “AAAAAAH!”
When James arrived home, feeling sad and hurt, he put ice on the top his head and went to sleep. When he woke up, James found a packet under his grandpa's large, old bed. He opened it. In the packet, there was an enormous, crunchy and large as a lion, delicious chocolate. James asked all of the family if they put the packet under the bed but no one said “Yes”. Who put the chocolate in the packet under the bed?
The Chocolate Witches By: Roalsan Longdahl “I’m going shopping in the village,” Jack’s mother said to Jack on Saturday morning.” So be a good boy and don’t get up to mischief”. This was a silly thing to say to a small boy at any time. It immediately made him wonder what sort of mischief he might get up to.
17
Jack’s house was very tiny, and it had a terrible stench that Jack hated. He was going to leave to do naughty things. Jack got a few things, a little gun (without bullets) to throw stones, a rope to climb trees, and a pocket-knife to cut things and he left. Jack was an intrepid and naughty boy. He liked adventures, to climb trees, to do sports, and, most of all, to get up to mischief. He was in search for something to do. A few seconds later, Jack saw a forest. He knew that forest. It was the forest of Witch! All the adults taught their kids that they didn’t have to go into that forest because there were witches and terrible creatures that ate and did terrible things. “It’s only a silly legend” Jack said to himself while he entered the forest. The forest was extremely dark, with tall trees. He could see little lights far away. When he walked more, he saw plants with apples that grew from the floor, and then potatoes that grew on the trees. Other fruits and vegetables that usually grew on trees but now they grew on the floor, and the ones that usually grew on the floor they now grew on the trees. There were potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, carrots, and peanuts on the trees, and apples, oranges, and pears on the floor. Jack’s mouth fell open with surprise. It was as strange as a flying cow! Suddenly Jack heard a noise. A disgusting woman on a flying broom came flying towards Jack… “Aaaaaaah!” Jack shouted while he knelt. The disgusting woman saw Jack. He ran, and ran until he came to a tree that he could climb. Some minutes later the little boy felt the bark of the tree moving. Then he saw a tiny window, as tiny as a bean. The window opened and a little man came out from a little door... and then other little people came out too. “What are you?!” Jack said in surprise. “We’re Minpins” a boy said. “Minpins! I read about Minpins in a Roald Dahl book, but what happened?” Jack exclaimed. “Witches happened” said the minpin boy. The oldest minpin started to tell the whole story to Jack. They told him that this forest was a minpin forest, but one day, the witches came and took our food, broke many trees, and killed many minpins because they ate the witches’ potatoes. There is a Grand High Witch and if she died there 18
was a treasure and all the witches would turn into chocolate. One minpin discovered that their weakness was peanuts...
Jack ate many things with the minpins and he became best friends with the little minpin boy, called Billy. He was eating potatoes when he said “I am going to kill the Grand High Witch.” And Billy said he would go with him. Jack and Billy went towards the witches, but the witches saw Jack and a fat witch caught him and put him in a stinky cauldron and turned him into an M&M. One witch threw him to a tall tree. Billy ran up to that tree and made a potion to turn Jack into a human again. Luckily, it was a peanut tree. They got some peanuts and off they went to the palace. When they arrived at the palace, Jack got his gun, charged the gun with peanuts and shot at all the witches. Finally, Jack saw the Grand High Witch and… ”BANG! BANG! BANG!” The Grand High Witch was dead. All the treasure was his and all the witches were turned into chocolate. He took the treasure to the Minpins, he ate some chocolate witches and he went back home. When he arrived, he saw his mother was arriving too. Jack ran and climbed into his room through his window. He sat on his bed and pretended to read a book...
Matilda’s Chocolate Factory By Isald Dahleis One Saturday morning, there was a very rich girl called Matilda. She had a chocolate Factory all for herself. The chocolate Factory was huge... it was enormous! Matilda let the people that wanted to go to the chocolate Factory to enter. Almost all the people wanted to go there because Matilda was a very nice person, as nice as a God, and she was also beautiful, as beautiful as a new pink flower. People also wanted to go the chocolate Factory because they wanted to eat chocolate. 19
One Friday night, Matilda told all the people to go to the chocolate Factory and eat all the chocolate that they wanted. They all went and they ate a lot! They had a lot of fun until a boy, a bad as a witch, as ugly as a pig, as nasty as a mad dog, and as horrible as a crocodile boy, pressed a button that made all the chocolate explode and chocolate rain came out, even a chocolate hail storm! When Chocolate rain came, all the people were okay. They were eating chocolate raindrops happily, but then came a chocolate hail storm… All the people started shouting and they thought that the chocolate Factory was going to FALL DOWN!
Two minutes later, Matilda saw all the mess and went where she could stop the rain. Matilda turned it off and the things that were broken went back to normal. After some hours, Matilda pressed a button that gave you what you wanted! As Matilda pressed it, in jiffy, a new chocolate machine appeared! And all the people were very happy; it was the best day of their lives. Finally, looking around at all the people smiling and eating chocolate, Matilda thought, “I did the best thing”. She said, ‘’Yes! I think I did the best thing.’’

The Chocolate Finger By: Luahl Cherod from France }In a mysterious farm, far, far away from civilization, lived a little boy named Charlie . He loved licking his fingers. One night, he wished he had chocolate fingers. But that wasn’t just any night, it was a special one... Christmas night. Next morning, he licked his fingers as he always did, but they tasted a different way. It was a new kind of flavor. It was… “Chocolate!!” he exclaimed. “Mmmmmmm…., delicious”. He looked at his fingers, and they were made of chocolate, real chocolate. Each finger was a different type of chocolate. Each day, the flavors changed, and when all of the chocolate flavors of the entire world were done, it all started again. But that would not last forever... One morning, Charlie woke up and licked his fingers, but he started feeling a strange bloody taste in his mouth. Charlie didn’t know any blood flavored chocolate. “Mom!!” shouted Charlie “I don’t have fingers”. The little boy went to the ZH hospital. It was in a nearby neighborhood, where almost nothing was heard or seen. It was scary and dark. His family came to visit him from 10:00am to 5:30pm. They took him to a regular kind of room, where a strange doctor came to take care of him. When the doctor came, he surprised him. Charlie didn’t trust the doctor. He didn’t trust anyone in the hospital. Every night, he heard strange voices all around the hospital. He didn’t know where they came from. His parents stayed with him most of the time. The days passed, and passed, and still no changes with his fingers. One night, in the room next to his, he heard loud screaming. After it finished, complete silence... Not even a bug buzzing. He was planning to escape from bed and investigate the entire hospital.
21
Some nights after that, recuperating from the accident he had with his fingers, when the doctor went out of his room, he checked the time at the clock of his room: 12:00am. “Ok, I can do it” he said to himself. Charlie stood up from bed, and roamed the corridors of the hospital. He followed the murmuring of the strange voices. The little boy got to a place where it said “Private. Danger. Keep Out”, and things like that. Obviously, he immediately entered. “Wow” he exclaimed. “This is fantastic”. It was full of thousands of experiments, half of the experiments were alive! He continued and saw a door that said “IF YOU GOT TO THIS DOOR ALIVE, GO AWAY!” Charlie entered and saw human bodies in green capsules. The little boy almost died from a heart attack. In the end of the enormous room, he saw a corridor. When Charlie got to the green spooky corridor, he saw all the doctors were turning into zombies. They were hairy, and each of them was of a different colour. One of the zombies saw him, and told all of the other creatures. The kid ran for his life. The zombies almost got him, but he escaped by breaking a window. Next morning, he told everything to his parents. Charlie’s parents laughed and said: “Oh, they must have given you extra ice-cream with extra M&M, and extra chocolate sauce”. But Charlie went to his room and thought about the ZH hospital…. “It must mean Zombie Hospital!” Although he still had no fingers, next morning, he magically had normal fingers again! Now, Charlie is very careful with what he wishes for... and hates going to hospitals!

The Wi Forest By: Natild Not far from where I live, there is a queer, old, small house. In the house lived a sweet, little, curious and pretty girl called Mia. The mother, Mia and her friends were talking about the Wi Forest. This forest was called the Wi forest because it was full of witches. Mia was listening to everything they said about the witches. She didn't know that she lived beside a forest full of witches! She ran out to the garden nervously! She accidently tripped with a branch and rolled, rolled up to the Wi forest. When she got to the scary, disgusting forest she heard someone talking. When she got closer to that sound, she saw a person that sounded familiar… and then she remembered! That person was called Il. Il was a girl of her class that had disappeared a long time ago. She was very nice and generous. Mia was excited because she had found Il and ran to her. Il started to ran towards Mia too. They were very happy. Mia said “Come on, let’s go quickly before the witches know we are here and then you tell me all about what happened to you”. They ran and ran, but before they got out of the forest, a disgusting horrible witch appeared and tried to turn Mia and Il into cats. Mia quickly tried to get water from a lagoon and threw the water on the witch. Then Mia got her wand and turned the witch into a cat… The cat was as horrible and spooky as a hairy spider.
23
After that, Mia and her lost friend went back to her house. Her mother asked “Where have you been, Mia? And who are you with? Because I hear you're talking with someone” Mia nervously answered “I am in my room mom, with Il, my lost friend. ________________________________________________________________________________________
Danny and the Chocolate Medicine By: Lucas Caffadahl In the hottest, stickiest, and sunniest village in Landaff lived Danny and his parents. His father hated Danny and Danny hated his father. Danny’s father hated children. Danny’s father hit Danny. Sometimes he made Danny bleed. One day, his mother shouted “Danny, I will go to look for a job, don’t get into mischief’’. “Ok, mom” he answered. As Danny was walking around his house, he saw a secret room. He thought “Should I enter or not?” In a jiffy, Danny was inside. It was ENORMOUS. It was as long as a whale but it smelled like dog droppings or a pig pen… It was HORRIBLE. Dead rats, frog heads, and on a side, a sign that said “make a chocolate”. He looked closer and saw they were all ingredients. He thought he was doing the coldest, stinkiest, and most suckling chocolate for his father with awful things as a revenge. Danny started to put frog legs, rats’ eyes, a bull’s mouth, a liquid that said “danger”, and mixed everything in ten minutes. Suddenly, there was a chocolate. In a jiffy 24
Danny was saying to my father “Do you want a chocolate?” and his father answered “Give me that stupid boy!“ He ate it like an animal. In 26 seconds, HE WAS A SCRUMBER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A monster of human body, spider eyes, rat legs, bull’s mouth and front legs that were as tall as a giraffe. The monster chased Danny. Danny called the police to kill the monster. They went to Danny’s house. Bang Bang!!!!!!!! They shot the monster. But they missed. Danny entered the SECRET room again and made a “good” chocolate. He gave the chocolate to his father who had killed all the policemen. Again, he ate the chocolate in 26 seconds and he was a normal person. In the end, Charlie’s father learned his lesson... Treat others the way you want to be treated.
The Elves By Vickald Silvahl “I'm going shopping to the village”, Sally’s mother said to playful, beautiful, tall, thin, Sally Hopwood on Saturday morning. “So be a good girl and don’t get up to mischief.” This was a silly thing to say to a small girl at any time. It immediately made her wonder what sort of mischief she might get up to. As soon as her mother left, Sally was already bored so she went to her uncoloured, boring room to rest. She curled up in her comfortable bed and fell fast asleep… When she woke up, her just-boring, fun-spoiler mother Anne still hadn’t arrived, so she knew it wasn't too late. 25
Sally was calmly sitting down, when she heard...TICKY! TICKY! TICKY! It sounded like tiny steps, but they couldn't be… Curiosity was overwhelming so, she turned around and found little creatures running inside her big room! To her surprise, they looked like tiny weeny men. Then, one little man, who looked like the boss because of his grey trousers and black blazer, finally spoke to her. “Hello, we are the elves” he said, “We would like to be your friends”. Sally nodded. Her eyes were as big as two saucers, “We are bored” he continued, and as soon as he finished saying this, they went to the kitchen and started to break things! “No!” Sally yelled. Too late. It was done. There was no hope left… Everything was a mess. Until one little elf came and said “Why don’t we play tag?”, “Okay”, she answered because she was as bored as a hibernating bear. Sally was “It”, so she began to chase after the elves, but even though Sally had to admit it was fun, the elves broke everything in their way! Sally and the elves, were having lots of fun, until suddenly, Sally’s mother stormed into the room, and saw them! She was very cross, and wanted to kill the elves, but, the elves began to climb onto her and tickle her. Sally’s mother, ended up lying on the floor From that day on, the elves visited Sally every day, and Sally’s mother didn’t complain because, she’s had had enough of them. Nowadays, if you go to Sally’s house, you’ll probably meet them.

The teacher called one of the children that sat in the back and they didn't come again. Suddenly, Simon noticed she had seen him and smiled at the teacher, but he knew she was going to eat him. “I think I will call a hunter so my friends will be out of the stupid, fat and horrible crocodile”, Simon said. He always brought his phone to school, so he quickly called the hunter. The hunter was called Bill. Bill had a rifle and a knife. He explored all the classrooms to find the crocodile and at last, he found it. “BOOM! BANG!!!”. Without a shot from his rifle, the hunter threw his knife straight to the heart. The crocodile was dead and the kids safe. After all that action, Bill said to Simon “It was in the news, didn't you see it?” “No” said Simon. At 4:10 Bill gave Simon 4 crocodile bags for his mother. Simon gave the hunter a new nickname: Huntcroc. Simon, Bill and his mother, Martha, lived happily forever.

At last George learned something, he learned that you never have to boast about something you have.
The forest of Screams By: Franchidahl On an enormous, beautiful farm with the best flowers you have ever seen, lived an amazing little family. They lived in a very pretty, giant house with very nice things. In the house, there were four rooms, a stable with some horses, three bathrooms, and a big kitchen that when they cooked a very delicious smell got out. The family consisted of a mother, a father, a boy called James, and a crazy, but very funny girl called Sally. One day, Sally decided to escape from the house because she was very angry and tired of hearing her mother scolding her all the time. Sally got some things to eat, went to the stable, got her horse and went wherever the black horse wanted. The horse was going to a place where, you could hear a strange noise… ”Puff! Puff!” At one point, she got a little bit worried because she had never been there and she didn’t know that strange noise. It was a dark place.
30
The trees were not so tall, but not too short. She was walking… then galloping, because the floor started to tremble... An enormous puff of smoke was coming out from some faraway place between the trees. The puff of smoke was coming toward her! She remembered a book her mother had read to her. A gruncher that had a fire in its tummy because he liked roasted food. That story had a moral, and a rhyme: “Beware! Beware, the forest of Screams! There are a lot of trees and very scary things.’’ The gruncher was chasing the girl and her horse. Suddenly, she remembered that in a part of the story, it said how to kill the gruncher. To kill the gruncher, you needed to pull and pull until he fell in the lake. Sally and the horse made an enormous effort. They pushed and pushed until the gruncher fell into the lake. Sally went home and said “Sorry” to her mother, and the mother did the same. “I will never escape again”.

Adlitam By Trinild Quehal In the nastiest, most mysterious, loneliest house in the city, lived a horrible family that was called the “Stwit” family. If you saw those people, you would probably shriek like a mouse. They were a nasty, unrespectful couple… both had no education. I will tell you a little bit about this couple, about how the look… Ladies first. Mrs Stwit wore a black coat, rubber shoes, extremely dirty long black hair, a tight belt and an ancient dress. Mr.Stwit wore brown pants, black shoes and a T-shirt that had a massive dirty chinese food mark. This repulsive couple had a baby that was called Adlitam. The girl have an Indian name. She had bright yellow soft hair, blue eyes, a little nose, beautiful ears and she always wore purple pants, blue T-Shirts and dirty cheap shoes. She wasn't born in a hospital like all other babies. This girl was born in a truck, in a horrible truck!!! And many times, Adlitam was “accidently” left in the truck! Imagine what a horrible family she had. During the night, she always dreamed that she would meet tiny people with purple hair in the old forest and they would teach her parents a well-deserved lesson. One night, when the family was having supper, a strange thing happened. Adlitam heard a noisy sound, but of course her parents didn't listen to her, so she decided to discover what the intolerant noise was all alone. She crept out of the house and then she saw a bright light that came from the street. It was as bright as the sun and then the strange creatures from her dreams appeared! They were Oompa Loompas. They were exactly the same as the movie characters she had seen before! Exactly the same. Her blood froze and then she fainted.
33
When the girl opened her eyes, she was in her bed. “It was just a dream” she thought, but then Adlitam saw a purple hair on the floor... Just like the Oompa Loompa’s hair... After thinking and thinking, she decided to open the window but, it didn ´t work, so she threw a chair at the window and the glass broke. Then with all the courage she could have, she jumped out of the window and landed on the dirty pool. Adlitam was completely wet and she squeezed the water out of her clothes. Then she rushed as fast as a Ferrari to the street and hoped that the Oompa Loompas were still there. In a minute, she heard some bushes moving and then the famous Oompa Loompas appeared. A fat Oompa Loompa walked slowly to the front and said ”Don't faint again, please”. “I will not, but I need your help, please” the girl replied then she began to explain the story of Mrs.Stwit and Mr. Swit .... The Oompa Loompas said that they needed ideas from their creator, Mr.Willy Wonka. He is a very good man. you should meet him”. “Where can I find him?” Adlitam asked the Oompa Loompa. “You can find him tomorrow in the village” the Oompa Loompa answered. That night passed and the hottest day of the year came. The girl searched for this man called Willy Wonka, but she couldn't find him. Then, when hope was almost dead, the girl heard a sound that came from a dark gloomy alley and saw Mr.Willy Wonka! He was a man full of joy. He was as happy as a comedian. He began to talk “Hello, Adlitam. I am Willy Wonka. The Oompa Loompas spoke to me and they told me a little about you, but let’s go to the point... I have a special chocolate for you. This marvellous chocolate can transform a person into a chicken!” “Give it to me!” the girl said. “It is not so simple... Here. Get these ingredients and bring them to me”. On the paper she read: 48 eggs Some Cinnamon Two cat hairs . 3 rats .
34
The girl explained to Willy Wonka that she didn't have the ingredients. They began to think “HUUM difficult... Aha! I have an idea my parents have a friend that is a crazy scientist! Maybe he has got these things” the girl yelled. ”GREAT!” Mr.Willy Wonka screamed with happiness. The girl ran faster than ever in her life and squeezed in herparents’ friend’s house. Adlitam walked very slowly and then when she was about to turn on the light she heard “WOOF WOOF”…. A huge dog attacked her and the girl ran down the stairs closing doors so the dog couldn’t enter the room. Adlitam was frightened she waited and waited. She slowly turned the doorknob and rushed into the kitchen. The dog had fallen asleep, so the girl opened the freezer and took 48 eggs, some cinnamon, sugar, two cat hairs and 3 rats . The girl opened the window and ran out of the house but…. The keeper of the house appeared and said “I’m going to call the police for invading private property!” “I-I-I” stammered the girl. She quickly threw one egg into the man´s face and ran out into the nasty, dark and gloomy alley. Adlitam showed WIlly Wonka the 47 eggs and said that she was sorry because she threw one egg to the man’s face. Luckily, Willy said that it didn't matter. Mr. Willy Wonka and Adlitam got into a dustbin and in a jiffy, they went flying off. No one saw them, they were so fast that Adlitam accidently threw up on an italian man when they were flying past. He cried ”Mamma mia! M-y...” and in a second, they were in the chocolate factory. They ran as quickly as they could and gave all the ingredients to the Oompa Loompas. In a jiffy, they transformed all those common ingredients into the magical chocolate. Then they ran out to the gloomy dustbin again. When they arrived , Willy Wonka said “If you give this chocolate to your parents… Bye, bye diabolic parents!” Willy Wonka disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Adlitam was so tired… as tired as a man that climbed the Andes, but she went on with the plan. She gently knocked on the door. Mrs.Stwit appeared “How did you get out of the house? I thought I had locked you in your horrible room… Go into your room now!!!” she yelled “Repugnant, naughty and horrible children” the mum murmured. But when the girl ran to the stairs, she “accidentally, ACCIDENTALLY” dropped the 35
chocolate... Her mum saw the chocolate and said to Mr Stwit “Mmm... the girl brought some chocolate”. Mrs. Swit and Mr. Swit began eating the chocolate but they felt something strange in their tummies. Plenty of feathers started to appear on their body. They were getting smaller and smaller... until two fat chickens appeared in the living room….. All I know is that the girl and everyone else in the world cried “IUPII!!!!!!!”
