“Cheer up,” said Harry’s dad as he passed his bedroom. Harry was fed up as he had been training for weeks for the fun run, but sadly he had broken his leg so now all his effort was worth nothing. Harry was so desperate to run in that race. Then his dad heard him talking so he decided to secretly ask if people who have crutches could still do the race. The next morning his dad said he could still take part. As he started they all cheered for him. He couldn't stop smiling as he was given a cup for the best effort.
Hello Caitlin
ReplyDeleteWhat a heart-warming story! And so beautifully told too. I love the sentiments you put into your story - courage, despair, joy - and the initiative shown by dad. You make good use of adverbs, and vary your sentence openers.
This is a terrific way to start the 2015 100WC, so well done and keep up the good work!
Happy New Year
