The frogs race


The Frogs’ Race


One day, a group of frogs decided to make a race and get to the top of a high tower.
A lot of people came to see them and give them their support, but the race had just begun and everybody was already saying that the frogs would not get there: « It doesn’t make any sense going on! You’ll never reach the top of the tower! »
Little by little, the frogs felt disappointed and discouraged, except for one of them that continued to run. And everybody cried out: « Give up! Give up! You’ll never get to the top! » Listening repeatedly to these
negative words led the frogs to abandon the race after all, except for the one frog that, despite what people were saying, and though alone and with great pain, continued to run and finally reached the top.Deeply astonished, the other frogs wanted to know how she had managed to do it. They came to her and asked her what her secret was.

And it was then that they found out that… she was deaf!

Kia Ora! My name is Alanna. I really like the story you wrote about The Frogs’ Race. I think it was really creative to make one frog deaf, which meant that she could finish the race! Maybe next time you could try and make your sentences a little bit shorter? If I was reading it out loud, I think I would run out of breath. Apart from that though, I think this writing is amazing. Happy blogging!
