The dumb deer

Once upon a time, there was a deer named James.  He lived in the woods near a river.  “Let’s go out to the river and get something to eat.” Said James to Percy.  “NO!” said Percy.  “We might run into hunters and get shot!  We’re not going.” “You’re not.” James said under his breath.  When it was dark out, but it was getting lighter, James snuck out of their home and headed off for the river so he could see his food.  Just then, he saw a wierd looking house, he had never seen this house here before.  “I’m going to go in and see what’s in there.” He said.  Just then, he heard a wierd squeaking sound.  The sound was actually the door of the house opening.  “What’s this wierd creature wearing a leaf costume.”  Thought James.  “I’m going to go say hi to him.”  He started walking up to the “wierd creature”.  Just then, he pulled out a bow and arrow.  “Man, this creature is wierd.” But before he could walk any farther, he was dead.

  1. Nice story Hertzler! I love how creative you were with it and how you included that the deer actually knew it was hunting season! I wish you would have made the story a little longer. I feel like you kind of rushed the ending a little bit. Great story all around though and you have a good subtitle, ” Where imagination and creation is a destination.” Keep on writing!
