The 1 Little Pig

June 2007

By Cassie

One day there was a Mummy pig. All of her baby piglets had moved out to live with each other when they were a year old. Their mum told them that they had to move out or they would have to live with their mum for ever and ever and ever, so they packed up and left.

About 4 years later the mother pig wanted her babies to come back and live with her. She built a house out of straw and then she packed up and moved into her straw house. One day later the Big Bad Wolf came by and he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down.

The next day the mummy pig built a house out of sticks. Once she had built the house she packed up and moved into her new house. Luckily for her it wasn’t until a month later that the big bad wolf came by. He saw the stick house and he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down.

The next day mother pig built a house out of bricks. It was so steady even when there was a tornado the house stayed as strong as strong could be. One year later the wolf came by and he saw the brick house so. He huffed and he puffed and he huffed and he puffed and the house stayed strong. The wolf said, “I am going to come down the chimney and what your house is like in the inside and see what I want to steel,” so the wolf climbed on the roof and tried to climb down the chimney. He couldn’t fit down because he was so fat. So the mummy pig decided to use her time wisely and move out of the house and back to where she used to live. She got a feeling that she wasn’t wanted there.

So after all of that they all lived happily ever because the wolf got stuck in the chimney and the house ended up getting knocked down.

The End

True Story of the 3 PIGS

Once upon a time there were 3 pigs living in a huge forest. The 1st pig built his house out of straw. That afternoon Mr. Wolf came to the 1st little pig’s house made out of straw. “Little pig, little pig. Let me come in,” Mr. Wolf said. “No, not by the hair of my chinny chin chin,” the little pig said.

“Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in.” said Mr. Wolf, so he huffed and he puffed and he belw the house down.The 1st pig ran to the 2nd pig’s stick house.Then Mr. Wolf followed the little pig to 2nd pig’s stick house.

Mr. Wolf stopped at the 2nd pig’s stick house. “Little pigs,little pig’s let me come in.” The Mr. Wolf said. Little pigs said, “No , not by the hair of my chinny chin chin.”
“Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in.” Mr. Wolf said, so he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down. The first pig and the second pig ran to the third pig’s brick house, so Mr. Wolf followed the little pigs to the 3rd pig’s brick house. Little pigs stopped Mr. Wolf stopped too, BUT…

The 3rd pig hadn’t finished his brick house yet… then Mr. Wolf ate up all of the 3 little pigs. Bye, bye you 3 little pigs!

Hansel and Gretel

Hansel and Gretel

Once upon a time there were two sweet little twins about age ten, one was a boy called Hansel and the other one was a girl called Gretel. They lived in a rather large cottage on the edge of Huckleberry Woods with their Dad who was a woodcutter and their step mum who just stayed at home and did jobs around their house. Their real mum died when they were just babies. Anyway, for a woodcutter, their Dad got a really good pay, $200 a day. Each day they were putting $50 in their retirement fund so really they had $150 to spend a day.

One day at about 8 in the morning, Hansel and Gretel went out to pick some berries for dessert. They picked strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, huckleberies, blackberries and even a smoreberry or two.

They had been picking for about an hour when they suddenly noticed they were lost. They didn’t have a clue where they were, the only thing they knew was that they were in the middle of the woods somewhere. So surprisingly they just carried on picking berries, but what they didn’t know was that all the time they had been picking berries, some had been falling out of their basket because there was a hole in the bottom, just big enough for a berry to fall out of.

They were still picking but they had been gone for 2 hours now, they were exhausted. They sat down and ate some berries and drank the last of their water.
“I’m so thirsty,”said Hansel getting to his feet.
“Me to,”said Gretel “But we’ve got to keep our hopes up. Our only hope is to either find a well or find our way home,”
“Like that’s going to happen,” said Hansel, not in the best of moods.

So Gretel got up and they started to walk again. They had been walking for about ten minutes when they couldn’t believe their eyes. About 50 metres away was a well so they started running, no not running, they started sprinting, it seemed like they had been sprinting for ages when they got there. They started to lower the bucket down, they were trying to go fast but it was kind of hard to. It took them about half a minute and they were now lifting the bucket up, this was the moment they had been waiting for. They lifted the bucket off the hook and each had a big drink.
“ Did that quench your thirst?” Said a voice behind them. Hansel thinking it was Gretel said, “Oh man of course it did.”
“What are you doing stealing from my well?”said the voice behind them again.

Hansel and Gretel turned around and standing behind them was the
Evil Elf of the West. They had heard of the Evil Elf of the West before but they never believed in him but that was in the past, now they definitley believed in him now that they’d seen him. The Evil Elf (in other words Lenny) said “I’ve changed now and I can control myself now.” Hansel and Gretel were really easy to persuade so they bought it in, not knowing that he had his fingers crossed behind his back.

So after that Lenny invited Hansel and Gretel over for lunch. It was only a short walk because they were by his well, which was in his property. When they got to his house Hansel and Gretel couldn’t believe their eyes. Right in front of them was a 3 storey house made of lollies, cake, candy canes, biscuits and lots of sugary food like that.
“Is that real?” Said Gretel “ The food on the house,”
“Of course!” Said Lenny “You can have some if you want,”
So they grabbed a bit of the fence each and took a bite “Mmmmmm my favourite,”
said Hansel with his mouth full, “Raspberry slice.”
They turned around to get some more and the bit they snapped off had grown back “WOW” said Gretel “ This isn’t possible. That fence just grew back,”
“I know, it’s great ay,” said Lenny, grabbing a bit off himself. “ We shouldn’t be eating this before lunch though but you can have as much as you want after lunch.”
“Yeah” said Hansel. They went inside and Lenny gave them takeaways for lunch. “This couldn’t get better,” said Gretel.
“ I know” said Hansel.
Lenny was getting impatient of pretending to be nice, because has saw Hansel and Gretel as two giant chickens just sitting there waiting to be eaten.
“So” Lenny said, “Why don’t you go outside now and have some of the house.”
So of course they couldn’t refuse that offer and they went outside.

Yes thought Lenny finally time alone to plan tonight’s feast “Hmmm should I fry them, bake them or should I turn them into a pie.” He thought for a while and in the end he decided to turn them into a tasty human pie. He went and got his cookbook and tried to find a recipe.

While he was doing this Hansel and Gretel were terrified. They had heard absolutely everything Lenny had said, for was talking to him self. “Should we run away?” said Hansel.
“ No I’ve got a better idea,”said Gretel tying her shoelace. “Follow me.”
Bravely they sneaked inside. While Lenny was making the pastry they went up stairs and hid in a cupboard. They were waiting for Lenny to come up so they waited and they waited and they waited. It was about half an hour before he came up because he was looking for his apron, which Gretel had hid. Gretel counted to 3 “1….2….3….”
They both jumped out at the same time and tied up Lenny's hands and feet with a rope they had made with their shoelaces.
“What do we do now.”said Hansel anxiously.
“You’ll see.” Replied Gretel. So they went down stairs carrying Lenny by the hands and feet “Now this is when the fun begins.”

Lenny was making so much noise screaming and shouting that Hansel got one of his smelly socks and stuffed it in his mouth “That should do the trick.” He said with a smile on his face. While Hansel was doing this Gretel was starting to read the recipe HUMAN PIE except it wasn’t going to be human pie it was Lenny pie. She took the pastry that Lenny had made for the human pie and started shaping it so that it actually looked like a pie. Once she had done that Hansel and Gretel lifted up Lenny by the hands and the feet and dumped him in the pie and popped the lid on top. They set the oven onto 250 degrees and shoved the pie in. They waited for about 15 minutes and the pie was ready.

Together they decided to try and find their way home and leave Lenny in the oven. First they had to get some food and water so they didn’t starve, they got 10 pieces of lollycake each and they filled up their drink bottles. “Now where do we go?”
said Hansel
“I think we should go to the well first and find our way from there,” answered Gretel.

Off they went to the well talking about if they’ll see their parents again. When they got there they discovered the trail of berries that they had been dropping out of the basket but they didn’t know that they were their berries. “What are all those berries doing on the ground?” said Hansel.
“Hey is that the smoreberry we picked that looked like a snowman?”said Gretel
“Yes it is.”said Hansel “How could this day get any better, first we find a house made of lollies then we get takeaways for lunch and now we are going to find our way home.”
“Well what are we waiting for let’s go” said Gretel.
They set of and in about an hour they were there “MUM!”said Gretel.
“DAD!” said Hansel. They were so relieved to be home with their parents it was 3:00 now and they had been gone for 8 hours “Where did you go?” said their dad I was worried about you. So they told him the whole story and of course they didn’t believe him so they took their parents to the lolly house and showed them the trail of berries. “Wow I really didn’t believe you, the whole thing,” said their Dad with a really surprised look on his face.
“Hey Dad,” said Gretel “Can we live in this house since nobody is living in here and the house is much closer to your work? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.” begging like she is going to die.
“Ummmmm we’ll think about it together tonight,”said their step mum.

So they got home and together their Mum and Dad Decided that they would move in and sell their old house because there is a well near by and if the kids want a treat they just have to go outside.

It was the day after they had moved in and all was going well they had buried the pie and their Dad was never late to work again and they lived happily ever after, except Lenny, who ended up going to hell.

Rumpelstiskin The Real Rumpelstilskin

“In Rumpelstilskin (not the real Rumpelstilskin) I (Rumpelstilskin) was an evil little gnome like thing who was going to take the baby and eat it. Ew no I am a strict vegetarian. Well before I tell you all this I better tell you the story from the beginning.”

“The first part of the story is true but the miller was a horrible person who treated his beautiful daughter like a slave. She could not sew or do many chores that women do and it wasn’t her fault either because no one had taught her. One day the miller put his daughter up on the roof with a spinning wheel and thread for punishment to show people how lousy his daughter was. Then by chance the king came and saw the millers daughter on the roof, the king asked what she was doing on the roof but before she could answer the miller stepped in and lied she was spinning the thatched roof into golden one and well the kings guard was a greedy fellow who was good at persuading people like the miller. From the instant they met eyes they knew they could do a lot of stuff together so the were kind of in the plot together. Well anyhow back to the story. The guard said to the king that he would be twice no I mean five times than any king in the world and the king thought about it owning the whole wide world that would be a great privilege (not that the king was a mean person he was really kind and the millers daughter (whose name is Millie) saw that) so the king agreed and took Millie back to his palace he then put her in a room full of straw and told her if she doesn’t spin all this straw she would be killed and he left and now poor Millie who didn’t know how to spin started to sob for all that she cared she was going to die the next day. That’s when I made my miraculous appearance and I told her that I will spin it for her if she promised to give me something so she gave me her necklace now I didn’t want a necklace so I gave it to the poor. Well the next morning the king woke early and went to check her and what the king saw was a room full of real gold thread that I spun and straight after breakfast the same guard from yesterday suggested to the king that he should put Millie in another bigger room full of straw and spin that into gold to and well that’s what he did and said that if she doesn’t spin it by morning her head will be chopped off. That horrible guard so again Millie started to sob again so I appeared and told her I will spin for her if she gave me something and this time she gave me a ring again I didn’t want a necklace so I gave it to the poor. And in the morning the king came to check early again but this time the guard had already made Millie eat breakfast and had put her in a bigger room full of straw but the king didn’t know this so when he found her he said that if she spun all the straw in to gold he will marry her now Millie was praying that I would come and help her and well I did come but I said to her you will have to give me your baby and she agreed so I spun again and it was a wee while till I met her again and I told her to give me her son but she just screamed and the king came with heaps of his guards and I was scared out of my skin but I kept my cool and calmly explained the promise between Millie and me then Millie started to remember she then told her husband that she couldn’t really spin at all and so the king made a smart move he arrested the miller and his not so royal guard.
And we all lived happily ever after including me!

Cinderella



By Emma Henderson

June 28, 2007

Once upon a time there lived a girl called Cinderella. Cinderella had lovely blue eyes that sparkled when she laughed. She always wore a long purple dress which went down to her ankles. She always wore her hair in two plaits with two red hair ties. Cinderella also had two stepsisters called Javotte and Claudette. Javotte was very beautiful but she did not look one bit like Cinderella. She had short thick brown hair, which went down to her shoulders. She wore a long sleeve top and a skirt, and smelled lovely. Claudette practically looked the same as Javotte she wore a pink skirt and top and had black thick short hair that went down to her shoulders and she smelled beautiful.


One day Cinderella got an invitation to go to the ball with the prince. She was so excited; she started jumping up and down. She ran to her room and started to pick out what she was going to wear. She told her step sisters that she was invited to the ball and showed them her beautiful, white, frilly dress that looked lovely with her hair, which was up in a high pretty bun with a tiara. Her sisters were very jealous and started to whimper and cry because they were not invited. The fairy godmother got attracted by the tears and turned up right in front of them. “What are you crying about? Said the fairy godmother.

“We don’t get to go to the ball and Cinderella does. It’s not fair,” they cried. Then the fairy godmother got her wand from her pocket and with a flick of it the stepsisters had beautiful ball dresses on. They said, “Now we can go to the ball, YAY!!!” Then the fairy godmother flicked her wand again and a huge limo turned up right in front of their eyes, “Wow” said the stepsisters then they said thankyou to the fairy godmother and rushed off in their awesome limo to the ball.

Once they got to the ball they parked the car, then jumped out and went inside the doors into a big building where the ball was held. Once they got inside, the first person they saw was Cinderella. They tried to hide behind a two foot plant but unfortunately they were 5 foot, so Cinderella saw them. Javotte and Claudette were terrified. They sprinted out of the door. Javotte dropped her slipper and Claudette dropped her phone so they ran back to get them. The prince saw them and just started dancing with them. Cinderella got very grumpy and through a tanty. She was so grumpy that the prince would not dance with her, so she left the ball. The stepsisters, on the other hand, were having a fine old time dancing with the prince. Then the clock struck 12:00 pm and at 12:00pm the stepsisters lose all their ball clothes and go back to wearing their old rags, so they ran out the door into their limo. On the way out Javotte lost her glass slipper again but she did not dare to go back to the ball in case the prince saw her in her rags. So they drove back home in their limo but half way home the limo disappeared, so they had to walk the rest of the way home.


Once they got home they went straight to bed because they were so tired.
In the morning they woke up at about 10:00 am. By the time they had put on their slippers and dressing gowns they heard a knock at the door. They both opened the door and it was the prince. They gasped. The prince said, “Whoever fits the slipper I will marry!” Now they both wanted to be married to the prince so they sat down on a chair by the dining room table. Claudette tried the slipper on first although she knew that it was not her slipper. She put her foot in the shoe and said “It fits, it fits!” Javotte was so surprised because she knew that, that the slipper was hers but when Claudette stood up, the slipper fell off, because it was so big. So then Javotte tried on the slipper and it fitted she was so excited that she was going to marry the prince. She married the prince in the end and they lived happily ever after apart from Cinderella.

My Story

The 3 little chickens





Once upon a time there were 3 little chickens named Jimmy Bobby and Billy. Jimmy wanted to go live on his own so away he went, he made his house out of a soft drink bottle. A few years later Jimmy woke up and tried to get up but he was to fat, he called for help but no one heard. A few hours later Bobby went to live on his own and went past Jimmy “hi Jimmy” he said, “help me Bobby I’m stuck” so Bobby helped Jimmy and cut him out “thank you very much Bobby” said Jimmy, and they parted and went on their way. Jimmy went and lived in a hay sack while Bobby made a house in a box with hay as the flooring.


Now Billy went and made a house in a cellar. Then that night the big bad mouse stole Jimmy’s eggs and the night after Bobby’s eggs, they both told Billy to be careful and that night Billy lay wide awake trying to catch the big bad mouse, with his bear trap but the mouse did not come that night. The next night Billy lay awake again but this time this time he locked the door, windows and the trap door, and that night he heard a squeaky little voice, “let me in little chickens I am cold and hungry and I have no where to sleep, please let me in” so Billy let him in, here is a bed and blankets so Billy and the mouse went to sleep, but the mouse did not sleep he stayed awake, and got up and stole Billy’s eggs and crept out.


When Billy woke he looked up at the other bed Billy thought he had gone away for good. Then Billy checked his eggs, they were all gone it was then that Billy realized that he had shared a house with the Big Bad Mouse. That day Billy moved house. Once that was over Billy went to the market to buy some eggs and some traps, that night he lay in the bushes waiting. And sure enough that night along came the big bad mouse Billy drew in a big breath and watched a few minutes later there was squealing “let me out let me out! After a few weeks the big bad mouse had died. Soon everyone knew that Billy had killed the big bad mouse, from near and far he was known as Billy the rodent slayer. The first person to hear about Billy was his mother Doloris she came down to congradulate him.
