TEETH

I started school when I was about 3 years old. I was delighted to start school, but that was because I didn’t know what was in store for me.  I was the smallest in my class, which isn’t much of a surprise.

The first day of school was normal, but the second day was the worst!  We had recess for some time; I was playing with a barbie and other toys that I can’t really remember. There was a little boy in my class who was blond and much taller than me. He got my barbie doll house and took it away. When I tried asking for it back he threw the doll house fiercely right at my tooth.

My mouth started bleeding like crazy and my teachers didn’t do anything about it! I remember hiding below a table where nobody could see me crying and bleeding.

When my parents picked me up the teacher told them what had happened. My parents were really surprised!

I remembered this story and I thought I should write about it, so I asked my parents if they could give me some details about what had happened. They gave me the wrong ones! They told me a completely different story. When I asked them where they got they got that story from, they said my teachers.

I told my mom what really happened and she got furious! Wouldn’t you be mad?
