A Day of Fun for Me!!!

Children’s Writing Festival : Story #6

Written By : Swar Jain, an almost teenager!

 

 

When the weather is bad and there are gray skies outside, being stuck in the house can be tedious.

Children’s Writing Festival : Story #4
Written By : Avani. She is a voracious reader, she actually does not read books. She eats them up. So it isn’t a surprise that she is a fabulous writer too. Her writing has been published on our blog before as well. 

“It’s raining cats and dogs!!” I screamed. Images of beagles and poodles falling out of the sky flashed through my head. My mom just stared at me. I quickly threw on jeans and a sweater while still thinking what dog I would like. ”Honey, be careful. It’s wet outside and wear a jacket”, Mom shouted after me. Maybe once the dogs and cats flew out of the sky, they peed almost immediately and hence the wet part. But the jacket part made no sense whatsoever.

I woke up one morning to see my mom standing by my bedside with a grin on her face.

“It’s raining cats and dogs outside. There will be no school today. Why don’t you do what you love to do and don’t get to do otherwise? There’s only one condition, no electronics!”

Veggie-Mix: A Love Story

Children’s Writing Festival : Story #1

Written and Illustrated By : Srishti Hazra, 13, earth saver, voracious reader and an enthusiast young author. 

She gazed at the pictures in the cookbook longingly, wishing that she could look like the skinny potatoes in the bubbling oil. She looked at her reflection in the shiny pot, and saw a round and spotty vegetable that she didn’t think anyone would love.
