GOLDYLOCKS TWO	The Story of Jack and Jill
Everyone knows the story of Goldylocks and the three bears. What about the story of Goldylocks Two? After Goldylocks ran out of the three bears' house, she didn't actually go straight home. People don't want to say this part because they want you to go to sleep quicker. Or they just don't know this part of the story. So here it is: After Goldylocks ran out of the three bears' cottage, she ran into another cottage. The mailbox said: THE SEVEN DWARFS. What Goldylocks didn't know, was she was in another story. She ran all the way to another book. She went inside. Of couse the dwarfs weren't home yet though. Goldylocks was at the end of the story. So Snow White was at the Prince's castle. What Goldylocks didn't know, is she was about to skip off the page! You know very well that Goldylocks is very mischievous. So as bold as you please, she skipped off the page and splat off the book. Goldylocks was in the real world so she became very scared, so frightened that she jumped back in the book. And she learned her lesson.

Their mother had sprained her ankle, and their father was at market all day. Their mother needed a pail of water to make chicken soup. So Jack and Jill set off for the hill. They were also racing when they arrived. So Jack was in a hurry and bumped his head on the stone well. He rolled all the way down. Jill laughed so hard, she tumbled down after. Jack is being silly, Jill thought, I'll have to teach him a lesson. Jill knew that Jack would hate to be in one of Mother Goose's ryhmes. She was on the 1990/232 rhyme. So all the people in rhyme land worked hard to be a rhyme. All Jill had to do, was to tell Mother Goose what happened. And Jack would be mad. So they got the pail of water, without any spills. Mother made her chicken soup. Then Jill, Jack, Mother, and Father ate biscuits and chicken soup. Mother was feeling much better. So the next day, Jack walked to Mother Goose's house. Mother Goose said, "What a splendid rhyme!" SO Jill knew that she had her lesson. The next morning, Mother Goose finished her book. Jack and Jill were in it. Jill was glad. And that's how it all happened. THE END Copyright © danilewicz@prodigy.net, 1999
The Sleep Zone	The Magic Basket
Everyone, almost everyone, sleeps. What would happen if we couldn't sleep? Here is the answer:Once there was a town called "SSSHH!" Well, that's what everyone said. They slept, unless they were awake, almost never!!! And another town, "Sunny Side", was right next to "SSSHH!". So they had to be very quiet. (NOT REALLY!) Anyway, "Sunnyside" went to sleep whenever they wanted to. "Why?", you ask. Well, because they didn't exactly know, but their town was always sunny. Perhaps that's the reason it was called "Sunny Side". Second, Something just instantly made them asleep. One time of the day, 12:00 AM to be exact, a few little girls wanted to go to sleep. They had just been busy for a week without sleeping. But they just couldn't go to sleep. Neither did anyone in "Sunny Side". FOR DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS, YEARS EVEN!!! But people weere getting tired. No, not the kind when you are going to fall asleep. The kind when you are kind of mad at something because it was bothering you. Anyway, one of the girls wanted to visit "SSSHH!" so she could take a nap. Anyway, they traveled by bike in 2 hours. They were getting sleepier and sleepier just approaching "SSSHH!". So they finally fell asleep. When they woke up, they wondered why they had fallen asleep there. Then one of them had an idea to call Mother Nature. She listened very carefully to the problem, and thought and thought and thought and thought and thought and thought and thought and thought. "I've got it!" She said, finally. "the people of 'SSSHH!' took the Sleep Zone out of 'Sunny Side'. But I have a souloution." Mother Nature created a storm to mix both towns. It took a while to get use to it though. There was different time zones even! But I'll explain it to you. Since they were were mixed, there was day and night, but just much longer than before. Someone changed that later on to 24 hours in a day. They also helped out her plan to work better. So if you tired, be glad that you have the sleep zone Copyright © dani	Once upon a time there was two little girls named Kristen and Kandy. Every day, their grandmother sent them into the woods that led to her great grandmother's, who is Annie, house with a very small basket. They didn't know why, and when they asked their grandmother, she always said, "It's just some gifts for Annie." Then Kristen and Kandy would look at eachother and shrug. You see, when they looked inside of the basket, all there was, was a piece of cloth, always different with all kinds of things. On day, Kristen and Kandy got to the bottom of things. So, when they got to Annie's house..."Darlings!" Annie said, as always. "What have you got for me today?" She let then in when they handed her the basket. Annie placed on the table. "Send Fran my thanks-" which was grandmother's name-"Now you two better be off, storm is brewing. Bye, dearies!" So Kristen and Kandy pretended to leave, but really just went outside and snuck into the bushes. They peeked into the window, and couldn't believe what they saw! Annie was taking out wonderful things from the basket, like cakes, coffee, icecream, pancakes, pillows, yarn and needles, and alot more. Kristen and Kadny gasped. How could this be? Then Annie finished and took the things to other rooms. Kandy looked at the cloth. "Kristen," she said, "look!" The cloth was plain white! "Oh my!" Kristen said. "Do you think that..." She didn't have to finish what she had to say, because Kandy knew what she was thinking. "You mean..." Kandy started. "The things came from the cloth!" they finished. "So that means," Kristen said, "We belong to a family that can to spells!" They rushed home. "Grandma!" they said. "Grandma!" Grandma sat up. "What is it?" she said, alarmed. "What?" "We know the cloth and everythinng!" Kandy said, out of breath. Grandma smiled. "Wonderful! Your first lessons of being witches start tomorrow at 10:00 sharp." Kandy and Kristen looked at eachother.
