“The Bear That Lived in a Tree”: A story by my sons

This is a guest post of sorts. My older son likes to make-up stories and his brother often chimes in. Here is one written today. It is entitled “The Bear That Lived in a Tree.”

The Bear That Lived in a Tree

(By Tomas and Gabriel Rocha, ages 5 and 3.)

Once upon a time, there was a bear that ate plants. The bear also ate meat. He even liked eggs. He loved salami!

One day, he was at the park, playing tag and jump-rope with his friends, Meerkat and Otter. All of a sudden a big robot that looked like Tomas came and stole the jump-rope. The Meerkat, Otter, and Bear ran and got the jump-rope from the robot and threw rocks until he went away and broke. A whale also appeared and splooshed the park with water and they played in it until it was time to go home.

The end.
