  1. I really liked how you made the birds talk. 🙂 I wish that you would put the other set of quotation marks where you wrote :Ow!” I also wish that you wouldn’t just write, “no she not… it should be, “no she IS not. Why was the whole last paragraph slanted?

    • Thanks Stern!It accidentally did the quotation marks there I don’t know why?Yeah I wish we did that.I really don’t know why it was slanted at the end?

  2. The story was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too short I liked it though but what happened after they saw the dragon? Did he fly away? What happened?
