🚒🚒🚒 Firemen to the Rescue! 🚒🚒🚒

It was a bright sunny morning, Joseph, Mia,Tom and Emma were enjoying the beautiful day in the meadow. Mia and Emma were playing badminton while Tom and Joseph were sitting and watching the girls play.

While playing, Emma hit the shuttlecock so hard that it went flying over Mia’s head and got stuck on a tree. Everyone was wondering how to reach the shuttlecock and bring it down. A few moments later, Joseph struck upon an idea. He decided to climb the tree and get it down. The girls were worried. “What if he falls down?” said Mia. First was Joseph, he held one branch and put his feet on a weak branch. The branch could not support his weight and it snapped! Joseph was stuck on the tree! The girls were terrified. They rushed and called the firemen so they could rescue Joseph. The fireman pulled out a long ladder and told Joseph to climb down. “Climb down the ladder and do not be afraid!” shouted one of the firemen. Joseph carefully stepped on the ladder and came down safe and sound. 

“Were you scared?” asked Emma. Joseph was ready to reply, “Are you kidding? I was not scared at all!” exclaimed Joseph. Mia started whispering something in Emma’s ear, “I think Joseph was petrified when he realised he was stuck on the tree,” whispered Mia, giggling.

“I think you are right,” said Emma. Tom suddenly popped up in the middle of their conversation and said, “Is it really hard getting down a tree once you have climbed it?” Emma and Mia both looked at Tom and replied, “Yeah, obviously.” Tom got embarrassed and said, “Anyway, it’s getting dark so we should head back home now. “Yep!” replied Joseph. Tom, Mia, Emma and Joseph went back home. The next day, the four friends told everyone in their neighbourhood about what had happened the other day.

😕😕😕 Who Am I? 😕😕😕

 God knows the reason why,

But at times I wonder who am I😕?

My friends call me Einstein!

They say I am the lifeline.

Some say, I am Tesla,

Wow! That’s a compliment, fella;

As sweet as nutella !

They also call me Elon Musk,

Because I work from dawn to dusk,

Like an elephant with a mighty tusk!

Well! That’s absolutely fine,

As long as I am in line,

With great men who shine.

I’ll grow up to be great one day,

And make everyone around me say;

This child is bright as day!!

🗼🗼🗼 An Adventurous Day In France 🗼🗼🗼

Ring! Ring! It was the alarm clock. I woke up to find myself lying on a bed in a different room! I looked around. Oh no, all my stuff had disappeared! Except for my clothes. I got up and looked out the window. The Eiffel Tower? Where was the Burj Khalifa? Am I in France? 

I peered in wonder.

I put on the first thing I found in the closet and went down stairs. I went outside and what I saw stunned me! It was completely different from Dubai. Everything was written in French. I walked around looking for a bank. ‘Blom Bank France’. It looked like a bank so I went in. I asked, “How much is five hundred dirhams to Euros?” “One hundred thirty seven Euros, four cents.” replied the man staring at the wad of bills in my hand. I exchanged my money for Euros and went to a cafe. I was starving! I looked at the menu. Bœuf bourguignon, Poulet confit, soupe à l'oignon, etc. I called for a waiter. “Oui? Puis-je prendre votre commande?” Just then I realised something! I don’t know to communicate effectively in French. I tried my best. He smiled and said, “May I take your order?” I smiled back. “ One Bœuf bourguignon” 

I got my order and ate it all up. 

After that, I did some shopping and was waiting for the bus. A girl my age came up and asked, “Salut, D'où viens-tu?” “Je viens de Dubaï.” I replied. "Dubaï! Vous vous plaisez là-bas ? Que c'est beau!” She started chattering happily. I didn’t understand a thing. I flailed around for an answer. Just then, the bus came and I hopped on.

A few minutes later, the driver called out, “Rue du citron” Nobody replied so he drove off. I kept looking outside the window admiring the mesmerising Eiffel Tower and dozed off. My jaws dropped when I woke up! I saw the magnificent Burj Khalifa and realised that I was dreaming. My parents and I were on our way to visit my favourite uncle in Dubai. 

I laughed and said to myself, “ Haha, How silly of me!”

🌴🌴🌴Nature’s Feature🌴🌴🌴

Everything is nature

God gave us this feature

Birds fly in the sky

And the mountains are so high

The rivers are so long

And the oceans are so strong

The butterfly is so beautiful as it flies

And the flowers are more adorable to our eyes

Everything is nature 

And it's everybody’s responsibility to protect this feature

😃 😃😃What Makes Me Smile😃😃😃

A smile is happiness you will find right under your nose. 

There are many things in life that makes me happy and smile.

The sight of my black cat, named Amuti/Midnight brings

an extremely broad smile on my face.

My brother’s dog, named Shody, licks my hand whenever he sees me, 

taking the happiness in my hands to my lips, causing me to smile.

My aunt owns a cat named Bella, and she has a kitten named Pompom. 

Seeing them together brings twice as much compared to my usual smiles.

I smile when I go out to the park to play football. 

Really, you should try to play football in your local park; it makes you fit and smile!

If you feel stressed, just take a dip in your local pool. 

It also brings a smile to your face! 

I always have a big smile plastered on my face, not just because of people, 

it’s also caused by animals!

 I love animals as much as I love people,  

and I will do anything to make them both smile! 

Once you combine the smiles of fitness activities, people and animals,  

you will feel like you have the broadest smile in the world!!!
