“Not yet darling, we’ll be home soon” replied Annie.

Annie was driving her tired, sleepy children home on an extremely foggy night.

“It’s so difficult to see” muttered Annie to herself.  The whole car was surrounded by a thick blanket of fog, so Annie couldn’t see so well. She could hear the soft snores of her children sound asleep. Annie felt alone and lonely in the small cramped car so she clicked a shiny grey button. Automatically the radio burst to life. The radio was on full volume so Annie turned it down a bit. The radio was still playing loudly. CREEEAAAK!!!! The windows made a deafening creak as they swiftly slid down. Annie tried to take a glimpse out the dusty window. Sadly she could hardly see. The fog was just too strong. Unfortunately the fog started to get worse and worse. Poor Annie tried to think of the safest, simplest way to return home. There was another deafening creak as the windows slowly slid up. Annie quickly moved onto the motorway. Even though she couldn’t see so well, she remembered that she drove up a steep hill just before a turn off to her lovely, cosy home. The roads were empty, as empty as a cemetery. Annie was zooming in the fast right lane as she approached the bottom of the steep, dark hill. Annie stopped. She checked if there were any other cars, but no the roads were bare. As bare as a dead tree in winter. Then she decided to swap lanes. As she carefully changed lanes, she heard a familiar man’s voice, from the far away distance, shout “GET BACK IN THE FAST LANE!!!!” Surprised, Annie just decided to ignore the strange voice. A few minutes past, “GET BACK IN THE FAST LANE!!!” She heard the strange voice again but this time the voice sounded like the person was panicking. This time Annie decided to listen to the strange man’s voice. She moved into the back of the right hand lane. Suddenly she realised she was passing a car with cracked windows and a popped wheel. “Come on push!” she heard a faint voice yell. Annie just missed the back of the broken car. She started to drive safely down the other side of the steep hill. She then realised that her husband’s favourite programme MOTORWAY EMERGENCIES was playing loudly on the radio. Suddenly she heard the same man’s voice say “You’re lucky you listened”.

Story title: Kittens in the Kitchen

Published by: Lucy Daniels

This book is about a girl named Mandy who finds a stray school cat that is about to have kittens. But the cat has her kittens in Mr Williams kitchen and Mr Williams does not like CATS or any other animals. Mr William is furious and he want the kittens gone! Theres no place in her house so she needs to find a house for the kittens and FAST!!  I like this book because it has alot of metaphors and interseting words in it.

I think this book would be great for girls who love Kittens.

"Ah! wheres my award winning spoon that I won last year for eating 500 pieces of corn cried Chicken. Chicken started to blabber on and on when he was cut off by his annoying phone.  "Get the phone Chicken"! screeched the noisy phone. " Chicken I know this is out of the blue but you'de better come to military or you'll be sorry. The line went dead. A few hours later Chicken arrived at military. Chicken wandered around amazed."Isn't that my spoon?"  Chicken sprinted to get a better look. "OWCH!" Chicken fell over. Well actually he was pushed by Mr Coffin. "where do you think your going? Start cleaning my spectacular coffins". Not being able to talk back Chicken started cleaning the dirty coffins so they were as shiny as gold. Mr Coffin turned around, "this is my chance!" "Get back here Chicken!, you want your spoon right? then you'd better clean all of my coffins." "No wailed Chicken sadly I WANT TO GO HOME=http://!
