Adventures in imagination, Pt. 2

I now present more Fun Silly Awesomeness courtesy of the first graders I taught today at 826CHI. We wrote the story below as a class and then each kid got to write his or her own ending. TODAY'S Q FOR COMMENTING: How would you end the story? - Erin

TREASURE-HUNTING IN THE KINGDOM OF DOLPHINS

Once upon a time, on the planet Marvish, in the Kingdom of Dolphins, there lived a prince and princess. They were five years old, and their names were Rosabelle and Armanjoey. The Kingdom of Dolphins was underwater, and all of the kids there swam around all day.

Rosabelle and Armanjoey were sister and brother, and they really loved to go hunting for gold treasure. When they went hunting, they always wore safari hats, camoflauge, and brought magnifying glasses as big as T-Rexes.

One day, they thought that there was no treasure anymore in the Kingdom of Dolphins so they went to the Forest of Seaweed. In the Forest of Seaweed, Rosabelle and Armanjoey met a wizard who magically popped out of the seaweed and said, “Boo!!!!!!!!” The wizard was a man with a tall, pointy hat with blue stars on it. Rosabelle and Armanjoey were scared, so they huddled together and screamed, “Ahhhh!!!!!”

The wizard said, “Oh, I’m sorry. My name is Wizard George, and I was just being silly because I wanted you to laugh and be my friends. Come to my house, I have gold treasure there.”

So, the prince and princess followed Wizard George to his magic house made of eyeballs. “Eeeww” they said. They were surprised, frightened, and grossed out, but they wanted to go in anyway because of the gold.

When they went in, suddenly Wizard George pushed a button made of earwax and an eyeball, and a cage fell on the dolphins.
