The Apple Tree Wizard
in Georgia
November 28th, 2007
The word "apple" is a word that can be found in the dictionary under "a". "Apple" is a unique word because no other word in the whole entire galaxy is spelled the same way or has the same meaning. An apple is a type of friut that is crunchy, sweet, and juicy and is perfect to give to a teacher on the first day of the school year. There is an old saying about apples that you might hear from your doctor or your parents. "An apple a day keeps the doctors away." That statment is certainly true but some apples can do more than just keep the doctors away. As I write this tall tale, you will find out how a piece of sweet, crunchy fruit can change some ones life.
"Mom help! I can't breathe" Carly screamed as she was rushing down the one- hundred foot drop of the knuckle Crusher.
"Hold on sweetie! The ride is almost over! Just hang on!" yelled Carly's mother.
" Mom ask the machine operator if he can stop the ride!" Carly wheezed. " I need my inhaler!"
Carly's heart was pounding like an african bogo drum and she was breathing forcefully pumping air in and out like she had just run a marathon without stoping. The cart was dahsing around the tracks going left and right and up and down, throwing her to the sides of the cart. She began to drip with sweat which was followed by a quiet whimper.
After a few more miserable twists and turnes, the cart finally cme to slow halt. She leaped out of the cart and raced to her mother.
"Mom I'm never going on that ride again." she whimpered just barely getting the words out.
"I know, it's okay. Here is your inhaler."
As you can probably tell, Carly Robinson had a terrible breathing issue known as asthma. But Carly had this issue really bad. I am sorry to say that her first asthma attack was a dreadful one that sent her to the hospital. Carly had to carry her inhaler everywhere she went since that day. But the most fatal attackthat ever happend to hercomes very soon in this tale. Infact, it comes so soon that when you finish reading this scentence the miserable event will happen.
