I’m in trouble. Dominic is following in my footsteps. He wrote and illustrated a story I’d like to share.
Disclosure: His teacher wrote most of the words from his dictation.
"The Happy Little Snake," written and illustrated by Dominic
It was a hot day. He woke up and slithered through the forest.
Then he saw a big tree. The bush looked like an ostrich.
He slithered over a grass hill and saw a ladybug. He slithered some more. The ladybug followed him to his home. They slept together.
So. The snake is happy because of some ‘ho ladybug.
Great.
(To those who read my stories in grade school: Do you see why I’m worried?)
