Dive in and Read Day 4. In day for our task was to design a advertiment for a job. Emma and I decided to do that in peers.





=A Tale To Be Told=

A short time ago there lived four animals, The animals were the best of friends. The friends were nick named the “fab 4”. The “fab 4” included Bee the beaver, Livvy the leopard, Nicole the newt and Rosie the rabbit. They all used to be very trustworthy of each other but their trust soon faded away, this is the story of how it came back to life.

One bright sunny day Bee the beaver, Nicole the newt and Rosie the rabbit began an argument over whose turn it was to choose the spot for the picnic that they had organized. Rosie the rabbit didn’t trust Nicole the newt to choose a good spot, Bee the beaver knew of a great patch of grass but no one would listen to her and Livvy the leopard felt that it was a pretty ridiculous thing to be arguing about so she wisely did not join in. Livvy started to get pretty impatient with all this arguing, she wanted her friends to stop, so she thought up a plan.

Livvy leopard thought that if she collapsed there and then that she might get her friends to stop arguing, so she did. Bee beaver, Nicole Newt and Rosie rabbit stood there stunned, they didn’t know what to do. Livvy started choking so Bee beaver went and put her on her side, a few seconds later Livvy sat up and said “I’m sick I need this rock.”. So she handed over a crinkled piece of paper that had a picture of a rock on it. On the paper a bold title read:

After her friends had read this piece of paper they packed up a day’s worth of food and water and set off on their quest for the RED ROCK OF WELLNESS. Livvy was left on the ground thinking about her decision to lie to her friends about her illness.

A while later the three friends arrived at the forest with the sun shining through the cracks in the towering trees. They looked at the map and followed it’s instructions to go straight ahead. They walked a little, they talked a little and they sat a little. Several hours later, they came to a clearing. In the middle of the clearing loomed a crystal pond. The three animals strolled over to the pond. It was there and then that saw a glowing red light. Soon enough the friends realized they had ventured long enough and had found the RED ROCK OF WELLNESS. Their next problem was how to get the rock out of the pond without destroying it. They split up around the clearing and then Nicole the newt yelled out “ I have found a sword”. They all rushed over to where the sword was. The sword was stuck in a tree trunk so the animals pulled at it until they were red in the face. The sword came out of the tree and Bee the beaver because she was bigger then Nicole and Rosie stabbed the crystal pond until it shattered into a million tiny pieces. The rock flew up and found itself in bee beavers hands. All of them stared for a few minutes at the rock that was glowing like red embers. Bee the beaver, Rosie the rabbit and Nicole the newt all felt so proud of their accomplishment and couldn’t wait until they could give Livvy the leopard the RED ROCK OF WELLNESS. So they all set off down the path heading for their spotty friend.

A short while later they reached the end of the big forest and could just make out Livvy’s spots through some nearby bushes. They all ran as fast as they could yelling happily “WE GOT IT!!!.” When they reached Livvy, her black lips curved up into a mean smirk. “ Well you guys got it did you, interesting you see I was never ill, I faked it all. It was a test to see if you could trust each other, after all you weren’t trusting each other when you had that argument, were you?” Livvy said smiling. “ You lied to us, we thought you were going to die.” said Bee the beaver rather puzzled.

“We went out of our way to find this ‘Oh so amazing’ rock to cure you, and now you’re telling us that you were faking.” exclaimed the smallish newt.

“Yep. You fell for it.” said Livvy, quite smartly.

“You broke our trust by lying to us, Livvy, I’m not impressed.” Before Nicole Newt could finish her sentence, Rosie Rabbit butted in:

“Hang on a second, Livvy and Nicole both have a point, Nicole’s point is Livvy lied to us but Livvy’s point is we weren’t trusting each other when we organized the picnic. I think Livvy owes us an apology and we owe her a thank you. Now, can we move on to our picnic, the carrot looked deeeelicious!” said Rosie Rabbit.

And that is the magnificent tale of the FABULOUS FOUR!
