Story

Sorry that I have been absent from my blog for a very long time. School had started and I just stopped having free time to express my thoughts with everyone. Now I just walk around mumbling to myself! I am posting now so that I can share a story that my son (second grade) wrote for a creative writing team that he is in. They will compete with other schools in a couple of months and this is one of his practice stories. Just a warning. I have told Logan that this story is very creative (the teacher thought so too and gave him a 100!), but that from now on he cannot use the word fart or derivations of that word in any more school work! I left in all the misspellings for added punch.

The Stinkiest Planet
by Logan Higginbotham

Good day! My name is Stinky. I am an alien. I am as red as a cherry. I have five eyes. I am giant as the Iffiel tower. I smell really nasty.

My planit is called Smellville. When you are farting the planet gets gray. Toliets fall from the sky and they make good houses. Storms bring in toliet paper. We use the toliet paper to make side walks.

We travel on toliet brushes. We use our mind for ful. We like to eat a lot of meat and vegetables. So bring you air freshuner and com visit.

I think that is pretty good for second grade but I am really hoping for a different subject when he does the contest. I know his grandfather will be proud of the subject. It is one of his favorite things to talk about!
