Bed time story for Princess Pea

Once upon a time there lived a little girl called Princess Pea. Princess Pea had a Mother called Queen Esmeralda, a Father called King Arther, a brother called Prince George and a little sister called Princess Sophie. They lived in a grand castle far, far away in a land called England. One day an evil widow called Nenassy made a plan to rule the land by taking away the King to the place called Never Never land. Once she got the King she decided to get the Queen too since she thought it was so easy. Once she got hold of the Queen she woke up. But Nenassy thought up a trick at once. She said that her child was crying so she came up to help and she also saw that Queen Esmeralda had fallen of her bed. So she helped her up. Nenassy had disguised herself as one of the rich people because Nenassy has been in jail at the castle. So they decided to invite her to a "thank you" party but Prince George, Princess Pea and Princess Sophie recognised the face and decided to stay in Prince George's room. They tryed to make a plan but it was too hard to think of one.So instead of dobbing they decided to think of something else instead. Just when the maids where setting the table for the "thank you" party the children put wriggly worms in the sandwiches on Nenassy's plate! But to their surprise when they all sat down and ate their sandwitches Nenassy said her sandwitches where delicious!!! The kids were amazed. They thought that she would hate it. Prince George said that she has been in the castle jail for months and for her food she would of been fed worms! While they were eating Nenassy realised that this was one of the best days of her life! She was so happy to be treated like this instead of being fed yukky things in the jail. So when the party was over she went home with a really big smile on her face. When she went home she looked at her house with cob webs, spiders, dirty walls and messy rooms. "Oh dear, this place is a disgrace" She said. So she decided to brighten up her house. She painted the house walls bright yellow, she cleaned the cob webs, tidied the rooms until they were sparkling. Then she decided to invite people over for a party. Then she thought about the mean things she has done in the past. She felt so sorry that she started to cry. Nenassy had learned a lesson not to be mean to anyone ever again.
The End!!!!

Rocks

A rock is a natural substance composed of solid crystals of different minerals that have been fused together into a solid lump.

Igneous-Igneous rocks are the oldest kind of rock. Igneous rocks are formed deep inside the earth where the temperature is very high. Some Igneous rocks float because a large number of air bubbles are trapped inside. Igneous rocks can be found near volcanoes such as Duluth hill in Duluth, MN. They can also be found near Diamond Bar Volcano in Hawaii. This is a picture of a Igneous rock.

Metamorphic-Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have changed from 1 form to another. These rocks form deep in the earth where it is very hot and there is a lot of pressure. This is a picture of a Metamorphic rock

Sedimentary-Sedimentary rocks are made from sediments. Sediments are other small pieces of rocks. They turn into pebbles, gravel, sand and clay. As they settle, they pile up and form layers. This is a picture of a Sedimentary rock.

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields the Poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below We are the dead, Short days ago
We lived, felt down, saw sunset glow Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders Fields

Fear not, the crimson flag, waving in these dawns will never fade. Before the last hearth that is burning in my nation vanishes. That is my nation's star, it will shine; That is mine, it belongs solely to my nation. Oh coy crescent do not frown for I am ready to sacrifice myself for you! Please smile upon my heroic nation, why that anger, why that rage? If you frown, our blood shed for you will not be worthy. Freedom is the right or my nation who worships God and seeks what is and seeks what is right.

There are 6 types of tigers. They are Indonesian Tiger, Seberian or Amur Tiger-The largest type of the tiger subspecies, males can be as long as a station wagon! These tigers also have the palest orange coat and the fewest stripes.

Bengal or the Indian Tiger-This is the most common subspecies of the tiger. Malan Tiger-This is the subspecies of San Diego Zoo.

South China Tiger-In the 1950's the Chinese government orded to be destroyed because they were veiwed as pests. Today, there are less than 30 South China Tigers left in the wild!
