How the horse got her hooves By Laura

How the horse got her hooves

On a hot, sunny day in a dry desert, there lived a wild horse. Her name was Bella. Bella was sad because her legs hurt when ever she ran, so she wasn't that fast. She always dreamt of having something that would stop her stubbing her toes, when ever she was trying to run away from predators.

 While she was dreaming about that, something zipped past. A few minutes later a little green lizard  scampered slowly past. One of the claws of the lizard looked like it was bitten by a cat.  Bella trotted over to the lizard and asked" Are you hurt?" The lizard replied sadly "I was just chased by that cat and it wants to get me!" The horse lifted her head down and said "Climb up onto my back.  I will take you to your hole. Quick, before the cat gets you!" So the green lizard climbed up her neck. They took off.

 5 minutes later they reached the lizard's hole. Bella lowered her head down . The little green lizard slithered down. Once the lizard was on the ground he looked up at Bella and said "I am so grateful that you saved me from that cat! To thank you I am going to give you a gift." The lizard slithered into the hole.

10 minutes later, the  little lizard appeared back with four rocks, and they were shaped like shoes but smaller. They were also sparkling.  Bella went to investigate. She put one of her toes on the rock. Suddenly she had two sets of hard rock hooves.

  2. Wow Laura, you have really impressed me with this story. You have used so many great words to describe the character's actions. I also especially liked in the introduction where you talked about the horse stubbing her toes. (I'm trying to imagine a horse with feet, which is kind of funny)

    You've done a brilliant job! Be proud of producing such a well written story. Perfectly punctuated and no spelling errors either! A quality piece.
