One day I looked out the window and the postman was a tiny, blue hippo dressed up as a ballerina. It was quite a queer sight. I went out and picked up the mail. There was a pink invitation inviting me to a party. When I got there, I saw a pedestal with a giant, beastly eyeball. It swiveled to look at me, a bang made it look away. I dived for cover behind a pillar. I made sure I was completely hidden behind it. Unexpectedly, the pillar disappeared. Somehow, I was flying toward the eye. I was now the eye. Oh no, oh no!

The Garden of Abdul Gasazi
The Garden of Abdul Gasazi was written by Chris Van Allsburg. Alan Mitz was asked to watch Miss Hester’s dog, Fritz. Alan took Fritz for his afternoon walk and came across retired magician, Abdul Gasazi’s garden. Fritz snapped the lead and ran into the garden. Abdul Gasazi made Alan think Fritz was a duck. When Alan went to Miss Hester’s to tell her what happened Frits was there as a dog.
Do you think Abdul Gasazi really turned Fritz into a duck?
I think Abdul Gasazi didn’t actually turn Fritz into a duck because Fritz has a characteristic spot on his eye and the duck did not have that spot on its eyes. Abdul Gasazi also seemed to be very amused with Alan.
When Charlotte Saved a Spaniel
Charlotte was excited, her mother had finally allowed her to come to the vet. Charlottes mother was a very serious veterinarian who always wore blue scrubs. Charlotte timidly followed her mother through the door, everyone seemed to know her. Suddenly a very old woman frantically pushed her way past Charlotte. “Please help, my dog is stuck between two walls,” screamed the woman. Charlottes mum ran to follow the woman. Charlotte was close on their heels. Charlotte’s mum couldn’t fit between the walls “Charlotte, you’re the only one small enough,” said her mother. Charlotte saved the little spaniel in no time.
