Regan's Story:

Bens Birthday Pranks

Once upon a time there was a family and there was a boy called Ben and it was his birthday today.

He had a little sister called Megan, a dad named Thomas and his mum's name was Katherine and they were a happy family.

While Thomas was icing the cake for Ben, Megan and Ben were secretly setting up a trick for his dad.

10 minutes later……

Thomas just sprinkled the last sprinkles on the cake and suddenly what looked like a poisonous spider jumped out of nowhere! 

Thomas got a great big fright and then Thomas realised it was a pretend spider. Thomas wondered where the spider came from?

Then an enormous strike of lighting came down while Thomas was just about to light a birthday candle. The lights went out and black struck the house but luckily the candle came on fire.

Thomas lit the last 8 candles and came into the lounge and sang Happy Birthday.

Ben, Megan and Katherine sat down on the couch in the lounge but when Thomas sat down, he got a little prick on the bum. He stood back up and then he saw a plastic thorn and he said Beeennnn. Ben laughed.

Thomas sat down and everyone gathered round.

Ben silently blew out the 9 candles, and the power came back on in five minutes.

They lived happily ever after.

Christian's Story: 
 

This is my Writer's Challenge story:

I was just eating cake - suddenly I went very tall (and fat).  I went bumping through the city trying to lose weight but people started throwing thorns at me and they came sprinkling down on my head.  Everything went black, but how? I was enormous, surely they couldn't find enough oil - wait, oil?  Where did they get the oil?  Silently I tried to find the pool (I couldn't fit in a bucket), but soon I found one! I looked around.  Wow, I was being bombarded with humans!  "Wait!", I said, and they stopped.  "I was just trying to lose weight," I said, "can you help me?" "Here, drink this" said an old man.  I did what he said and I went small again.  "Thanks a lot," I said.

The end - or to be continued?
