Dear Readers:
I couldn't resist posting several more short tales students wrote during a Seven Golden Secrets to Writing workshop at Gulf Avenue Elementary School in Wilmington. Luke wrote this piece and more are to come from other students. Seven Secrets aids children how to become comfortable and have fun using their writing skills.
"Quack Quack" to you all!

If My Brother Were a Duck
By Luke Nunez
If my brother were a duck I would give him corn and bread.
And if he went to school with me, I would take him outside when he
needs to go.
I would tell him not to
talk duck to the teacher because all the
teacher will hear is:
"Quack! Quack!"
When we go to the market, I
tell him not to talk to the butcher "or you'll end up as a Duck Burger."
And I tell him if he goes near a man with a knife, he might end up
a naked pink or lose an orange leg like a pigeon at school.
I will be sad if he migrates, although that would be extraordinary.
If he doesn't want to leave, we'll cuddle and we'll be brothers
forever. But I tell him if he stays he'll have to clean his own feathers,
because I want to relax.
That was what I
would do if my brother a were a duck.
