The Crocodile's Christmas Jandals

Here is some great writing about why it is so great

I think The Crocodile's Christmas Jandals is a horribly cool book.
Firstly it is a cool book because it is amazing. For example it is cool when they have a bbq.
I think it is a horribly fantastic book.

I think The Crocodile's Christmas Jandals is a good book for all the students in the world.
Firstly is is a fantastic book because it is exciting and funny. For example, it was exciting when the jandals got swapped.  
Secondly this book is fantastic because it has lots of different ideas. For example at the start he is very happy because he had new jandals.
The Crocodile's Christmas Jandals is a fantastic book and good for the children. Now you know all the fantastic things about The Crocodile's Christmas Jandals.

Chris Malinchak - So Good To Me (Official Video)

We watched this exciting music video today and it inspired us to be fabulous writers.

It was a glorious, sunny, sensational day when I jumped out of bed and got changed with joy. I went sprinting down the stairs and I ran as fast as a cheetah with a huge massive smile on my face. When I got outside my face was melting because my pet was missing. I hunted for him. I got some crayons and some paper and wrote flyers. I was looking for him and knocking on people’s doors. But they hadn’t seen him. I went to climb up the climbing frame and I still couldn’t find him. But…

Something leaned over me. My giraffe had found me! We played hide and seek. I gave him a cuddle. I was so excited and joyful. Now you know all about when I lost my pet giraffe.

By Sierra.

It was a gleaming, shimmering day and it was hot. I got dressed as fast as a cheetah. I rushed down the stairs and out the door. I went to see my pet giraffe but when I got there he was gone. Then I knew just what to do. I made some posters. I put them all over town. When I had put the last ones up I went to the school and found the highest place I could. Suddenly a big black shadow bent it’s neck right over me. I was just about to run away. The I realised the shape of it. It got closer and closer and then it made a giraffe noise. So it could be my giraffe. And guess what? It was! I was so happy to see my giraffe that we played tag. I made sure I had an eye on him, then we went home to have a nice dinner.
