The Dirty Floor
by Eli, age 8, Missouri
Once upon a time, there was a marshmallow in a cabin with hot cocoa, and then he accidentally spilled his hot cocoa, and he didn't have any rags or anything, so he went to the store to get some dirt. And then he laid it out, and then he said "Ah! Now my floor is dirty!" So then he went to the store to get some grass to clean it up, and then he said "Ah! Now my floor looks like a field." And then he went back to the store again and buyed some apple seeds and then he said "Ah! Now it's more of a farm!" And then he started his own business and he got a lot of money and he used that money to buy some more hot cocoa and some apple cider and then share it with a friend. The End.

The Gardening Competition
by Leo, age 6, New York
Nobody owned the aquarium, so they had a competition to see who would get to own it. They had a competition to see who could grow the biggest tree the fastest. It was between a farmer and a baby. The baby's name was Googoogaga and the farmer's name was Sharkybarky because one time he was in a boat and he saw a shark who helped him because whales were trying to eat him, so multiple sharks attacked the whales.
They both went at the same time. They each had a shovel, a bucket of seeds, and 2 buckets of dirt. There were 500 judges. They started when the 500th judge, a special judge, the president of the United States, told them to start.
They planted all the seeds at once. They made a hole, dropped in the seed, covered it with dirt, watered it, and moved on to the next one. It only took 15 seconds to plant all of the seeds and for them to grow.
But there were bulls on the farm who came to eat the leaves. The baby had a Nerf gun that he used to shoot at the bulls. They ran away from the trees but charged at the baby. The baby ran away and was a good digger, so he dug a hole and went in. The bulls dug with their horns, but they couldn't catch the baby. The baby ran away and the bulls ran home.
The farmer lost the competition and got dunked in an ice pool. He said it was refreshing, but when he got out, he was an ice block and they had to nail him out. The baby won and got to own the aquarium. The baby was very smart.
The end!
