The
Good Apple by: Kaitlyn
Ok, I know all of
you know the story of Snow White, right?
Well here is how it really went…
Once
upon a time, there was a beautiful girl named Snow White. Her mother was the most wicked mom in
the whole entire world! She wanted
to be the queen of all the land.
She even had a magic mirror that talks. She asked the mirror, “Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s
most fairest of them all?”
“Your
daughter, Snow White,” answered the mirror.
“What? That can’t be! I must be the most
fairest of them all to be queen of this land!”
“Well
you are not fit to be the queen, but I can tell you what you can do to be the
most fairest of them all, feed Snow White an apple with poison on it. She will be gone and you will be the
queen,” said the mirror.
“Thank you mirror,” said the wicked mother. Underground, “Wicked” has what she calls “an evil lair”. She had a cauldron of the poison for the apple, another for a potion that will turn her into the most ugliest, hideous, oldest, person in the land to trick Snow White into thinking she was just an old lady. And another cauldron for chicken soup, incase she gets hungry later. One day, the old lady was standing in front of Snow White’s house, holding an apple. Snow White was very hungry and asked for the apple. The old woman gave the apple to Snow White. She ate it and nothing happened, “Oops, forgot the poison! Oh well!” THE END
The
True Story of Cinderella by: Regan
Once
upon a time there was an ugly girl named Cinderella who lived with her evil but
pretty step-mother and step-sisters.
Cinderella was treated very badly by her step-mother and step-sisters. Late one night the price called for a
dance at his beautiful, white palace in the ballroom. The ballroom had so many lights and decorations. Cinderella wanted to go to the dance so
bad but her step-mother wouldn’t let her go. So, Cinderella sat home alone. Until a fairy showed up and said, “You are the ugliest girl
I’ve ever seen.” So that moment
the fairy decided to turn her into a beautiful princess and told her that she
has a spell, and it will wear off at 12:00 midnight. Cinderella was so happy that she really didn’t care what
time the spell wore off at. When
Cinderella arrived at the ballroom, the prince noticed her right away because
of her beautiful, sparkling blue dress.
Right away he knew that they were made for each other so he asked her to
dance. Cinderella said yes. They danced and danced until
midnight. All of a sudden,
Cinderella heard a clock strike 12 and she remembered what the fairy said. Cinderella tried to get away, suddenly
she lifted in the air and turned back into herself again. When the prince saw her like that he
said, “You are horrible looking.”
Cinderella just looked down at the ground in shame Then the prince decided to marry one of
the pretty step-sisters instead, and they lived happily ever after. Poor Cinderella had to run away from
the evil step-mother and step-sister, because the one step sister moved
out. The mother and sister would
make her do more stuff because one of the sisters moved out with the prince so
she actually had one more thing to do.
So that’s the true story of Cinderella! THE END!
