The Eagle and the Bear at the Circus

There was once an eagle who lived in North America. His name was George. George had many friends. Their names were Sam, Lilly, Nick and Robert. One day a circus was in the forest for the animals. George and his friends tried out for the circus and successfully got in. Inside the circus tent, there was an aggressive, big, fat, ugly bear. Whenever the circus ringmaster got near the bear, the bear would growl. George and the bear got into an argument about the noise. George swooped down and grabbed the bear by the neck, and really annoyed the bear. When the bear returned to his cage with his bloody neck, he felt like rubbish. Afterwards, the circus started. George and his friends swung on the acrobatic apparatus. The animals could still hear the bitter bear growling, although the bear was in a different room. It went on until it stopped. Nobody knew what had happened. The bear got away by digging a secret tunnel under his cage, while the animals were performing in the ring. It was a brilliant escape. The bear found a collection of sticks necessary to build a new house.

Meanwhile, George and his friends went to France with the circus.

Wiley, I love your story, you used your spelling words very well! Well done for adding some great adjectives and verbs. I really enjoyed reading your story! Well done!

The Running Artist

One day there was an artist who made cartoon pictures. He was a harmless man. He lived where there was a market, called Hallo. It was busy and stinky in the market. He was sad and lonely because he had to sleep on a blue carpet. If he needed to see out the window he had to kneel. Early one morning he went to the door and he got a letter for the running fair. He really wanted to go so he did. When he got there the race was already on, but he still jumped on the track and gave the others a snarl. He ran as fast as he could.

Who would win? It was so close! The artist won the scarlet cup.

Very exciting story Adam, great use of adjectives and I love the ending. Very dramatic!

You describe your character well, and I love how he 'snarls'! Great job!
