Docking Day

The Docking Day  by Amanda Jackson

This story is about a Sheep farm family who go down to the paddocks to do docking. The children helped a bit but most of the time they rolled down hills and chased rabbits. While the family was busy docking, a chocolate truck tumbled down the hill and crashed on a tree. Then the family helped the truck driver collect all the boxes that had fallen out of the truck.

The characters in this story are Aunt Mollie,Mikey,Uncle Tama and the truck driver.

This story takes place in a paddock that was by the sea.

I liked this story because they had Christmas decorations  to hang up for docking day.

Less than One Second

This article is about Ashley and Shiree taking part in the slot car race that takes less than one second.Ashley and Shiree are the only children taking part in the annual slot car drag race.

The cars could reach speeds up to 193 Kilometers per hour.Times are recorded on the computer.

I like this article because it is a racing car story and I like racing cars. I wish I could drive a car myself and I wish it was the fastest car ever.
