The Boy
Written by a Collaboration of Girls from M Illustrated and Edited by Radge
Once upon a time there was a little boy hiding in a kennel.
He was surprised by how spacious it was compared to the shoe box he’d been living in before.
You see, this little boy thought living in a shoebox was normal.
That was all he had ever known...in his 7 years on earth.
One day his mum told him they would have to move.
we have to move
Move... Moving was scary it meant change and unknown but maybe he could make it.
what changes???
moving sounds scary
Plus maybe it would mean they wouldn’t be living in a shoe box anymore!!
So he packed his bags and moved to the closest.
The closet was very exciting, but scary as well, it was full of big hairy spiders.
The little boy dreamed about the day he could live without fear of things.
He loved to dream about riding dinosaurs and flying into space,
But his mum told him dinosaurs no longer exist and to stop being silly.
dinosaurs don’t exist anymore
but I was riding one last night
It was hard for him to think about that as the dinosaurs were so real he could touch them, and when he would fall asleep he’d soar through the sky on the back of a dinosaur.
Going so fast he thought he was flying like a dragon.
Dreams were good & dreams were safe, no moving happened in dreams.
