Young Writer's Club Meets at Lowdie's House


Liam loves to dictate stories for me to type and print. Usually they involve animals and the facts he knows about them. Yesterday, we did this one:


About Bunnies
By Liam Parlange
November 20, 2008


Bunnies like carrots. Bunnies jump high. Bunnies and deer are the same animals almost. Bunnies are black, white, brown, grey, green. Bunnies hop so far, farther than a grasshopper. But bunnies cannot fly. Bunnies can only stay on the ground. People like to see bunnies. Bunnies are afraid of people, people aren’t afraid of bunnies. Famous bunnies are Peter Rabbit, Rabbit from Winnie the Pooh. People like to knit bunnies, like my Gramma Laurie. Laurie can knit anything she can knit a rabbit, a pig, a donkey, a race horse. She is good at knitting animals and anything. She knits me anything and Alex and Vera and Mikey. And Mom. And Steve. And Pia, Little Tony, and all the rest of her family.

Bunnies live in the forest.

The End.


I think he set the bar pretty high on my knitting skills -- a race horse, yikes!

Better yet, use up some of your massive stash before you go on a killing spree.

Cara said...

Sue said...

that is what you get for not coming home Carparts!

Laurie said...

exactly! come home before we ALL forget you!

Allison said...

Hmmmm....could this perhaps be another yet more subtle effort in the "Bring Em' Home Campaign"?

Laurie said...

it didn't start out that way, but if it makes them feel left out and lonely, well so much the better!

If it makes you feel better Cara, Katie sees them, and she didn't make the cut either... but we still want you to come home pronto.
