By: Jimmy One day a Native American was in Antarctica. The Native American saw a white tiger. Not just an ordinary white tiger, the first white tiger in the world. The Native American got and closer and closer. The tiger said "Do you need something''? "Yes can you help me? I am so hungry that I can eat a cow," said the Native American. "As you wish!" Said the tiger. He had some fish and gave it to him. The tiger told the Native American, " Go to the river and you will see a deer. It is young deer. Don't kill it because it has fawns. Go to the next one, it is a little bigger, but don't kill that one. Go to another deer. Don't kill that. Go to the biggest deer and shoot it. It is old, so kill it and bring it to your friends so they can see it. Show them so they know you can do it, because they are wrong about you. Then your friends can get a deer to eat when the deer are so old. Now go back home and show your real friends how to catch a deer. They will lift you in the air and catch you. They will treat you like a king. " The Native American did all of those things and he was happy. |

By Jennifer One day in winter a person called a meeting because the leaves were green every year. Everyone in the small town was mad so they called off the meeting and said to think at their homes. Everyone in the small town did not know how to change the leaves. Everyone was still very mad. Years passed and nobody thought of an idea to change the leaves color! Ten years passed until a very young girl came up with an idea, but it didn't work. Weeks and months passed until a family came up with a wonderful idea! The idea was to get paint every year and color the leaf a color. The news was spread all around the small town. Everyone in the town colored the leaves in fall, orange and red. When it got cold, everyone in the small town painted the leaves the color they wanted. in the small town the people that came with painting the leaves every year are famous only in the small town From now on every single person paints the leaves the color they want.

By Kelly One day, a while ago, there was a porcupine and a skunk. They both were useless because the skunk had no smell, and the porcupine had not a single quill. There were many hungry tigers in the jungle. (The porcupine and the skunk lived in the jungle.) And one day, a hungry tiger came out and tried to eat the porcupine. The porcupine was very scared. The skunk went to save him. He found some smelly, stinky, stuff and made it into perfume. It was really, really disgusting, but he still ate it. There was a little squeeze bag he kept in his front right paw. That is how the skunk got his smell and perfume was made. Meanwhile, the porcupine found sharp things on the ground. He put them into his back. Finally, he held some in his hands. Then he fired out his weapons. The tiger ran back into the forest! That’s how the porcupine got his quills. |

By Annette One day there was a Native American and a rabbit. The rabbit wanted some food. She didn’t care what kind of food there was. So, the rabbit went into the Native American’s teepee. The rabbit ran out of the Native American’s teepee as fast as she could because the Native American got mad. Then the Native American pulled the rabbit’s ears. The rabbit went close to the Native American’s basket outside while the Native American was picking corn. Then the rabbit snuck into the Native American’s basket. He got mad. Then the Native American tugged again. But this time the rabbits’ ears were long, very long. That’s how rabbits got long ears. |
