Week 26 – Fairy Tale Mash-Up (St. George and Curious George)

St. George and Curious George

One day St. George was making sure no harm came to his castle or hurt his people. And then St. George saw Curious George walking by. And Curious George asked St. George was he was doing. And he told George that he was making sure no harm came to his castle. And then the man with the yellow hat came and said, “What are you doing here with St. George?” And Curious George told the man with the yellow hat that before he was playing in the backyard and then he wanted to play outside a little bit and began to go out. And he also asked the man with the yellow hat if he could stay with St. George a little bit. And the man with yellow hat said “Be a good little monkey.”

And then Curious George be a good little monkey for a little bit. Then Curious George wandered off into the woods and saw a dragon. He left bananas behind him. And the dragon got him.

Week 26 – Telling a Tale (Frog and Toad in Space)

Once upon a time, Frog and Toad were in their spaceship looking for Mr. Pigeon, the Bad Guy.  His real name was Neil Armstrong, but Frog and Toad called him Pigeon because when he went on his space walks he looked like he was flying.

Frog and Toad landed in a great big rectangle with great big walls, which was Mr. Pigeon’s home.  It had sliding doors on each side, and when they landed, the doors closed and they were trapped!  And Mr. Pigeon wasn’t even home!

“Frog!” cried Toad, “Why did you lead us into this trap? I knew I should’ve been the leader!”

“Relax,” said Frog. “I’ll get us out.” He pressed a button on the control panel and immediately the front nose of the spaceship opened up and out came a big spring with a boxing glove on the end and it punched the doors down.  Soon, those doors were floating in space and Frog and Toad were back in space, looking for Mr. Pigeon.

Finally, they found Mr. Pigeon, but Mr. Pigeon saw them and got scared and flew to another galaxy. They made a plan. They decided to make their spaceship look like one of Mr. Pigeon’s. They took giant stickers that had Mr. Pigeon’s symbol on them and put them over their own spaceship’s symbols, so they looked like one of Mr. Pigeon’s spaceships.

They travelled to the galaxy that Mr. Pigeon had gone to. Mr. Pigeon wasn’t scared this time, for they had fooled him into thinking that they were on his side. Frog used his puncher (the big spring with the boxing glove) to punch Mr. Pigeon back into the Milky Way galaxy, right into the sun.  That was the end of Mr. Pigeon, and this story.
