Dear Teacher,
I don't know why you sent me to Military school.
I listened to every word until,
"Okay class, open your books."

Hate is a very strong word.
A best friend of mine is always taken away by a person I thought I knew.
To her now, I am a bad person. Do you think she's right?
Empty people like her always have to have control.
My message is not to let bullying rule your life. I
hope this message helps.

Last year my family was moving from Jamaica to England. When we reached there we stayed over at our grandmother's house. That's when it all started. The pictures were looking at me. I heard voices. I just went to sleep with my mom. That's when the creepiness got worse!

Signs Nature
I ran down the colorful hill. The bright green grass brushed against my blue dress that my Ma had made for me. The bunnies were playing in the meadow and the deer were prancing around. The hawks were soaring through the sky, searching for their prey. The sun was reflecting on the nearby pond, where the frogs jumped as they caught their flies.
I could see my sisters playing with our dog, Freddie. My brothers were off playing marbles with their friends.
I could smell the stew my Ma was cooking for supper. I could hear my Pa working at the nearby mill. What was I doing? I was searching for signs. Signs of nature. I could see them everywhere. All of the animals and plants that surrounded me were the signs.

Once upon a time there was a lovely young girl called Hannah.
She had a chocolate bar.
Because her heart was filled with kindness, she decided to hand it round to her friends.
Hannah offered it to her friend Will, but he said, "Get that thing away from me!" and didn't want it.
Then Hannah offered the chocolate bar to her friends Toby and Rebecca.
They just looked at it and ran away screaming.
Then Hannah offered it to her friends Joe, Sarah, Terry, Charlotte, David and Eric.
They all wanted a piece of chocolate, so they said, "Yeah".
Toby and Rebecca joined them, for they'd realised that they also wanted a piece.
So they all had the chocolate bar together and lived happily ever after.
Hannah, Isle Of Man
Once upon a time there was a princess called Hannah.
She lived in a very high tower guarded by a dragon who was really nasty.
Many princes had tried to rescue Hannah, but they all failed because they were scared of the dragon.
One day, a handsome prince called Jack came to the tower.
The dragon tried to scare him but he wasn't afraid of it and simply froze it with his magical staff.
Jack flew up the stairs to where Hannah was waiting and opened the door.
He saw the princess sleeping on her bed and kissed her to wake her up.
Hannah woke up, saw Jack and fell in love with him.
Jack had also fallen in love with Hannah, so he asked her to marry him.
The princess said, "Yes," and they both escaped from the tower, laughing at the dragon, who was still frozen.
Jack and Hannah were soon married and they lived in Jack's kingdom.
They lived happily ever after and the dragon was never seen again.
