Stewart was driving to the store to buy a cake for his grandma’s birthday party. He was going to get a chocolate cake with strawberry frosting. He could see the store ahead.

He walked into the store. “I would like a chocolate cake with strawberry frosting,” he said. The store clerk handed him the cake. As Stewart  walked out of the store, he was tempted to eat it.

Stewart was back in the car. He placed the cake on top of his head as he drove away. (He wasn’t very smart.) Stewart opened the window for some fresh air. A family of elk emerged from the bushes. Stewart reached for his camera. The cake slipped, it fell. It tumbled out of the window.

“Oh nooo,” yelled Stewart. He swerved towards the cake. The cake rolled in the water. Stewart followed. He landed in the water with a loud splash.

“I’m having a very bad day,” thought Stewart “Please, someone come and help me!” he yelled to the trees. He yelled and yelled and yelled. Soon he discovered yelling was useless and quit. Somehow he got ahold of his phone. He tried to turn it on. If he was frowning before, he was really frowning now. The only thing that happened when he pushed the power button was a random wire poking out from the bottom.

“My phone broke!” he wailed. Finally coming to his senses,

 he was paddling his car towards the road with the broken window. Suddenly a strong current sent him floating back into the middle of the Columbia river. Just then Stewart had a great idea. In fact, it was the best idea he ever had. Unless you count the time he used an actual bike-pump to put air in his flat tire. He usually just put his mouth on it and blew. But that is another story. Anyways, his idea involved fireworks,lots and lots of fireworks. He just happened to have some with him. He arranged them in a way that clearly said HELP.

A forest ranger was sure to see it. Stewart carefully took out his only match and flicked it against the match box. A small orange flame appeared. Very, very carefully he lit the blue fireworks. They exploded in the air with a loud BOOM!!!

About fifteen minutes later, Stewart saw a green and brown truck pulling up. A young man dressed in all green and brown camouflage stepped out.

“I’m over here!!” yelled Stewart.

The forest ranger said, “I saw your message, so what’s going on here?”

“Um, isn’t it obvious?” asked Stewart impatiently. “I’m stuck in this river!”

“I’m afraid that by myself, I will not be able to help you. But, I can get some of my friends to help me, if you could wait a few minutes,” said the forest ranger.

Forty-five minutes later, the ranger returned with a whole rescue team. One of the ranger carried a long rope. The guy with the rope walked over to the side of the river. He threw the rope to Stewart.

“Grab on,” he said. Stewart tried to swim closer to the rope. When he was just a few inches away, when the current sent him flying in the other direction. On his eight-hundred and fifty-seventh try, he reached the rope. The other forest grabbed the rope’s end, and pulled. They tugged, Stewart was just too heavy. Then the rangers got smart. They tied the rope to three different jeeps.

One got into each of the jeeps and started to move forward. Stewart felt himself being pulled out of the river. Stewart was so happy that when he got out, he started dancing around.

   

"Thank you so much for saving me ," he said.

"You're  very welcome," replied one of the Rangers. Then Stewart had a horrible thought. His car was still in the water!

"What about my car?" be asked.

"What about it?" Send one of the Rangers.

"Will you able will you be able to get out of the river?" asked Stewart.

"I'm sorry, but we can't do that," said a Ranger.

"I can help you pay for it," said another ranger.

"Pay for what?" Asked Stewart.

"Your new car," City Ranger.

Stewart couldn't believe that he had to get a new car. With $30 from each of the seven Rangers he headed to the car shop

The cars shop had a whole section of blue cars. He picked a $1000 blue and red Subaru. Stewart loved his new car. He had it for many years.

Dear Ms. Luria,

          Did you know that there is a place that could be both educational and fun?  I think that our class should go to the Humane Society for our field trip.  Besides the Humane Society is close to school, it only costs $25 and it could be educational.

          The Humane Society is one of the best places to go because it is close to school.  It probably only takes 20-30 minutes to get there.  Out of all of our ideas it is one of the closest.  We also would be back to school on time for dismissal.  The Humane Society would make a great field trip because it is close by.

          The Humane Society only costs $25 and it could be educational, in addition, we can learn about the animals.  Also, it would only cost $1 per person for the bus and the Humane Society is free to get in.  All we would have to pay for is transportation.  If we went to the Humane Society we would learn a lot.

          I think that our class should go to the Humane Society for our field trip.  It is close to school and it only costs $25.  It also could be educational.  The Humane Society is a place where we could learn about the animals and their adaptations.  Therefore, the Humane Society is the best place to go for our field trip. 

          From,

Betty was just about to call her sister about a great apple pie recipe, when Sam jumped on the table  Sam was Betty’s cat.

“Sam get off the table!  You crazy cat, you need to learn to behave yourself.”  Sam ran into the living room.  He jumped on Lilly’s cage.  Lilly was a bird.  Sam jumped up and unlocked the door.  The cage door swung open with a loud clatter.  Lilly flew out the window.  She perched herself on the highest branch of the oak tree.

“Oh no,” yelled Betty.  Betty grabbed her phone and dialed 911.  A  male’s voice answered the phone.

“My cat’s stuck in a tree,” she said  

The man said, “We’ll be right there.”  He asked Betty her address.

“97432 NE Fern Street,” she responded.  Betty went outside.  She saw a firetruck parked in her driveway.  A tall woman with thick black hair out.  

“I can save your cat,” she said.  It turns out her name was Lucy.  Lucy pressed a button and a large ladder came up.  Lucy climbed up the ladder.  Sam mewed  He meowed again.  Lucy climbed higher and higher still.

“Got you,” she said, grabbing Sam around the waist.  Lucy climbed down the ladder with Sam comfortably nestled in her left arm.

”Almost there Kitty,” she said.  Lucy climbed down the last few steps of the ladder.  Betty gt Sam a bowl of milk  As for Lilly, she came down eventually.  It took a lot of work.  Betty and Lucy shook hands.  Betty watched as the bright red truck.  She finally called her sister to ask about good apple pie recipes.

My favorite food is mangoes. I like them because they are sweet and a little bit sour. I eat mangoes in the summer time. I like mangoes plain with nothing on them. Mangoes taste really food and I like their colors. Mangoes are bright orange and yellow. The colors make me feel happy.

I eat mangoes in the summertime. I usually eat them outside. I first ate mangoes in Mexico when I was in kindergarten. In Mexico I always ate mangoes outside. I am excited to eat mangoes this summer.

 “When are we leaving Mom?” little Tom asked impatiently. “I want to go now.”

Meanwhile Mr. Turkey and his family were getting ready for a big day too. “Is everyone here?” asked Mr. Turkey.

“Yes,” said the rest of the family together.

“Well then let’s get a move on!” he yelled. “Everyone come up close to the fence.”

Everyone came up to the fence at once. “Alright, now everyone start digging,” he said.

After 30 minutes of extremely hard work the turkey family had found their way out. “Now what?” the youngest turkey, Turkis said.

“Split up into teams of two and start looking for the truck. When you find it yell ‘clloooo-kydorrr’!” said Mr. Turkey.
