GUEST POST

I finally found someone to do a guest post! My seven year old sister, future author and illustrator of children's books, Astrid Crowley. Enjoy!


The Baby Turtles By Astrid Crowley


Once there were a couple turtles. They got married and they always loved to kiss. They would always hug too. One day, they had three babies. Their names were Ilae, Katy, and Marissa. When they were born, they were always crawling around and trying to find food, but their parents wouldn't let them, unless they stayed in their house. They were always eating bugs. They were always crawling around. They would not stop crawling around, they would just keep finding bugs everywhere. 


They had little cute clothes. They always wanted big girl clothes, but they weren't big girls yet. Their mommy was smaller than their daddy. They were very afraid of piranhas. Piranhas were mean. One day, the little turtles went to find fish to eat, but a piranha almost ate them. It was scary to them. They fell in the water, but swam away just in time. They ran home and hid in their rooms. They would never stop being scared of piranhas. Piranhas always tried to eat them, but they could never catch the turtles because they were too fast.


It was their fist birthday. They had never had as much presents as they did on this day. They got so much presents that their rooms were filled, and they couldn't even go in! They realized they had so much toys that they wanted to donate some to poor baby turtles. The poor baby turtles were so happy that they became friends with Ilae, Katy, and Marissa. They baby turtles were very happy because they knew that many other turtles would have been too selfish to share their toys. 


And they all lived happily every after.
