If I Were Magic--by: Anna

If I were magic I could fly into space and live on Jupiter.  I could have a beautiful palace and never die if I were magic.  I would never be sick or miserable.  I would be able to rule the whole world.  I would rule the seas.  I would be really, really rich.  I would never run out of money.  I could make people do what I wanted them to do. (I would never do that, though.)  If I were magic I would never have any trouble at all.

The Little Old Woman-- by: Anna

Once upon a time there was an old woman who did not have a home.  She looked and looked but
she could not find one, so she walked for a long time until she saw a small house far away beside the country
road.  When she got there she saw a dog, a chicken, a cat, and a horse who had no home. 

She went to work.  She put in windows in; she painted the house--the inside of the house yellow the outside red.  When the house was finished, she built a fence around the house.  Along the outside of the fence she planted flowers of every kind.  Then she moved in. 

When she looked out of a window she said, "The grass needs to be mowed."  So she went outside and started mowing.  An hour later she finished.  When she had put up the mower she went
inside and said, '' I am lonely.  I wish I had a friend to talk to."  Then for the second time she saw the animals."  She said, "Animals, you may live with me."  And all the animals ran to her.  The little old woman was very glad to have the animals for friends.  And she never was lonely again.
