Amanda K wrote this fantastic short story in her creative writing class about finding a dinosaur. We thought it was so great that you would like to read it too.
Today I found a dinosaur in my backyard. I screamed so loud it broke a glass in the kitchen! I asked the dinosaur what his name was. He said it was Wolly. He was green and spotted. I asked him where he came from. “I come from Spotted Dino-land,” said Wolly. He said to me, “May I please have some plants to eat?” I said, “Sure!” I gave him some tomato plants. My mom saw me and she said, “Amanda, don’t pick those!”
I asked Wolly if I could get on his back. He said, “Sure”, so I did. We rode around in circles all around my backyard. We rode for two hours. Then my mom called for dinner – it was salad. Wolly said, “Can I come?” I said, “Come on in” and then we ate salad together.
