chips and drank cold drinks. There was a
church near Char Dukan. They were getting ready for a wedding and they had
decorated the church beautifully. Then ,

We fed the black dog and it didn’t bite us.

A Dream
I was resting in bed because I was not feeling very well. My mother had gone to the
market. Suddenly, I was lifted out of my bed and I was out of the
window! I landed in a lovely meadow There were many deer and cows
grazing nearby and I went to pet them and play with them. I stroked
each cow and deer, one by one. But, as I was about to stroke the
last deer, I saw a bull come rushing at me. It shook me hard!
Then, I opened my eyes and saw my mother back from the market
shaking me awake .

Rex
One day, we went on a hike. While coming
back, we saw a cute pup. He was hurt very
badly. We felt very sad. It had a cut on
its tail and one eye was hurt. Tears were
running down its nose. I took off my cap,
put the pup in it and carried it back to
school. Mr. Greene and MissLucas did not
know what to do. So, we gave it to Ma’am
Teron. Some of the girls were crying. I
was going to cry but I controlled myself.

A Frightening Dream
I was alone at home. Suddenly, I heard a noise coming
from my garden. I looked out from the window. I saw two
men dressed in black who were climbing up the wall. I ran
and hid under my bed.
Both the men’s faces were covered with a black cloth. I
saw that they were burglars stealing my mother’s ornaments. Suddenly, one of them saw me and threw a knife
at me. I screamed loudly and opened my eyes and saw
that my mother was shaking me. She asked me why I was
screaming.
Thank God, it was only a dream!

Holi
Holi happens to be my favourite festival. I particularly enjoy the brightness of it that comes
from the colours used. I keep a stock of every
colour but red happens to be my favourite. The
other ones ,particularly, the purple is one I
hate to use on Holi. It never comes off and
makes one look so bad.
I also enjoy preparing gujiyas with my mother
and sister. My mother keeps frying them in the
pan while my sisters do the rolling, cutting and
filling. My favourite part is to do the filling
which gives me a chance to keep stealing the
tasty khoya which is full of dry fruits. Eating
the gujiyas piping hot, just as they come off
the stove, is the most cherished moment of the
festival.
I also make other preparations for the festival, like choosing an old and faded pair of jeans
and a shirt. I think that having to apply oil and
cream is the boring part of it. But, if that is
not done the chemicals in the colour can be
harsh on the skin and hair.
I had a bad experience after Holi once. I was
so engrossed in playing with colours that I did
not realize there wasn’t a drop of water left
for me to bathe. That winter day I had to wait
for hours soaked in Holi colours before the
water supply was restored. It was a very important lesson that I learnt that day – to have
a bath on time.
I particularly enjoy the festival in the company of friends and relatives, that is, when there
are lots of people to have fun with. The excitement is unmatched
when everybody loves
the festival as much as
you do.

A Magic Umbrella
One day, while I was walking along, I saw something shining in the bushes. I went near them
and saw an umbrella with the picture of a robot across it. He looked like me! He started talking to me. He told me that he would grant me three wishes.
He asked me what my three wishes were. I wished I had superpowers so that I could save
people from danger. He granted my wish. Then I had superpowers. I saved people from trains
crashing together and from many other kinds of danger.
Then, he asked me what my second wish was. I thought about it and said, “I wish that my
friends and I become wealthy.” Then he said that it was a very nice wish. He granted it.
