**A Good City by Alex** There are a bunch of lights You will see lots of people and lots of cars you will see. Little boats about and docks and you will see little fishes and the blue sea You will smell the fresh air.

by Elizabeth ** Trees look like giant flowers. Snow looks like rain The sky looks like the ground The ground looks like the sky The logs look like roots Smells like the garden Feels like Winter Rocks look like leaves. Leaves look like rocks. Oooooh - so cold. I like this world, Do you?
 * The Silly Day

 * Cat**

It purrs and purrs all day and night. It makes me feel happy. It makes me smile. A cat sits and sits all day and night. A cat is big. A cat is small. It sheds and sheds all day and night.

 **Dolphin by Megan** Bottle nose dolphin Swims slowly and softly through the sea. Looks like a baby shark but with no teeth A white and light purple piece of paper with a fin on the top Lives in a purple cave in the sea Eats tiny minnows, beta fish and lobsters Fast swimmer smooth skin mammal a nice animal

**Snake by Jackson** Slithers slowly as a turtle with very sharp teeth as sharp as a **KNIFE!** it eats its prey after it sprays its prey with its special poison then the prey will die. It looks like a moving piece of string it sometimes lives in a hole in a rock eat pandas and other snakes sharp teeth gray slow, fast

by Patrick** Blue is loud like a monster truck rolling. Blue is wet like a splash. Blue is smelly like gas.
