The Blind Men and the Elephant

Once upon a time there were six blind men, and they never seen an elephant before because they were blind, but they heard of one.  While they were blind by the street, there was an elephant that went over there.  They could not see it, but they felt it.  He said, "It's kind of like a wall."  The second one said, "I think you're mistaken."  Then the third one felt the trunk and said, "No, it's kind of like a snake."  The fourth one said, "No.  It's kind of like something else."  The sixth one said, "No, you're all mistaken.  It's kind of like a robe." The men drove away, and they stood there blind all day calling each other names because they got it wrong.  The end.

Mignon

There was this girl, and she was running in the hall.  Then someone caught her and said, "What are you doing alone?"  Then she said nothing and ran away, but he was trying to find her.  Then he found someone beating her with a stick, so then he ran to the girl and took the stick away from the guy and said, "Don't bother her again!"

Then she ran and hid from the crowd, and then she danced with that guy because he was a part of her family now.  That's all I remember.

Caligula

The Romans were trying to rule the country, and then the king will march around in the island because he really wanted to rule it.  But once he got there, he did something quite different, so they were getting ready to fight the army.  Once they went down, all there was was the shore, water, and sea shells.

After that, they said, "We couldn't fight the sand and the sea shells and water."  Then they saw the men come with the helmets and the shields and the swords, but then the war was over and a soldier came and took out their leader.  The end.

"Oh, the World" by Ryan Smith

How I love the world.
The birds sing at day and night
And the crickets and the bugs and the grass in the morning.
Oh, how I love the world!

Snow White and Rose Red

There was these flowers that were rosy red and white, and they had the exact same color as Snow White and Rosy Red.  Rosy would always jump in the field and catch butterflies, but Snow White was a little gentler than Rosy Red.  They would be running through the woods, and no giants or birds would be hurting them.

One day, a black bear stuck its head through the door.  Snow White screamed, and the goose flapped its wings, and another animal just freaked out, but Snow White ran away and hid under her mom's bed. The black bear said, "I won't hurt you. I just wish to go in your house and be warm."  So the mom said, "Oh, poor bear.  Come in and get warm."

Then the bear asked them if they could brush the snow off his hair, so then he came every evening and got warm, but when it was summer shiny, the bear said, "I must go for the summer." Snow White said, "Why?"  The bear said, "On the summer, the dwarfs break out of the ground and steal gold."

So he walked away, and then Snow White and Rose Red went out to the woods and found the dwarf.  Then the dwarf said, "Don't just stand there, help me," because his beard was stuck on something. They tried to pull on it, and then they had no choice, so they went in and got scissors and cut the beard.Then the dwarf said, "You have cut my beard off," and then they went back home.

The next day, they saw the dwarf again, and the dwarf said, "Don't just stand there, help me," because he was getting pulled in the water by a fish because he was catching a fish. So they had no choice but to cut the beard.  Then he said, "You have cut my beard again."

The next day they saw the dwarf again.  An eagle picked him up, and he said, "Don't just stand there, help me."  So they cut his beard off, and he fell down. So he got mad and then he walked away until he heard a growl, and there was some guy standing by there.  The dwarf ran away from the bear, and then Snow White realized it was her friend bear and then she married that one guy by the bear.  The end.

The Whale

There was a whale, and it was trying to find food.  There was a fish, and the fish said, "Have you ever tasted human before?"

The whale said, "No.  What does it taste like?"

Then the fish said, "It tastes alright."

Then there was a knife on top of a rock, so the whale went to the knife on top of the rock, and then he ate the person, and then the person woke up.  Then the person was awake, so he banged and then he slammed and then he kicked and then he flipped.  Then the whale said, "Get out of my mouth.  I have the hiccups."

Then the man said, "Okay, promise me you'll put me on the island."  And then the whale put the person on the island, and then the person lived happily ever after and the whale, too.

The person cut the whale's tonsils out into square pieces.  The end.

The Master Cat (Puss in Boots)

There was a kingdom, and someone had a kid and a cat. The cat went to a person and said, "If you don't give this corn to the king, you will be chopped in pieces in the pot."  So the king walked in, and then they gave him the corn.

Then the cat went to another person and said, "If you don't give this (something) to the king, you will be chopped into pieces and put in the pot."

Then the cat went to an ogre, and then the ogre turned into a lion, and then the cat was afraid, but then he went down and said, "Maybe you could turn into a mouse or a rat."  Then the ogre turned into a rat, and the cat ate him.
