Looking behind me I saw my brother stampeding down the Museum corridor, the exhibits tumbling.
A
frightened look flashed across his face, he was pale.
"What’s up?" I asked calmly.
"I saw that, penguin..." He stammered.
"Penguin?"
"Came, to LIFE! It tried grabbing me!"
Mum walked in and questioned us thoroughly. I told her about the Penguin James saw, then we started giggling.
"What’s funny?" He asked.
" That Penguin is just a suit and was probably trying to give you a hug." Mum replied.
Eventually we were asked to leave due to the racket we had caused.
(Note: this isn’t a true story!)

A very interesting short piece of writing. Thoroughly is a great word, it adds so much to the sentence. I wonder what the other visitors to the museum thought of the racket you had made.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment Chris,

What a brilliant piece of writing. It was very interesting as it went from scary to funny.
ReplyDeleteWell done for using speech marks in the correct places.
