                                          Miss Pickerell and the Weather Satellite
                                                   by:Ellen Macgregor

                        

          One day in Square Toe County they predicted the day

would be sunny. Ms. Pickerell thought that the weather

station was wrong because her thumb always hurt

when it was going to rain. So she called the governor

to open the dam because it was going to overflow.

Then the governor and Ms.Pickerell went up into

space to check the satellite. She cleaned it then

there was a big white flash that nearly blinded

her. They went back down to earth and

everyone was cheering to her that she had

saved the day. Later that day there was an

interview about Ms. Pickerell ,the governor, and Ms. Pickerell's

nephew.

 Dear diary,
              
                I am at last able to live forever by eating that fruit of that garden.
I hope I will finally be able to overpower that wild animal, of Aslan. When
he created Narnia I thought that he was showing off his power ,but now thanks
to that fruit I will be able defeat Aslan and rule Narnia. He thinks that I will
suffer but thanks to Digory he awoke me by striking the bell and  waking me
up. Since he helped me the first time he'll help me again. I will rule forever
Narnia and become one day the ruler of every world. 

 

                                                                                         The strongest,

                                                                                             Jadis
