Reccomendation- 9 and lower
Description- I wrote these stories when I was 8 but my aunt who is a screen play writer corrected them for me so they are easier to read. Carl Croc is just a series of about an investigative reporter who interviews whales, sharks, sea creatures and then comes on land and interviews a dog my plan was to also add cats, rabbits, and hamsters I still might but for the time being I lost interest. Carl Croc is you guessed it a crocodile! I always thought I might be able to turn these stories into a picture book or two.
The Stories:
Carl Croc- The Reporter
I’m all Wet! You’re all Wet!
Hi, Carl Croc, here. I was just at the Great Barrier of Fish. It was like swimming in a giant pool. The temperature is always a wonderful 80 degrees. The animals were so amazing that I couldn’t believe my eyes when I spotted them. Most of the sea life is very colorful. But there was a jellyfish named “Jelly” that was an awful beast. I’ll never invite that fish over for dinner. Anyway, you must go with me next time. Oh, yeah, when we do… don’t forget to order the peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich! Yummy!
Something Seems Fishy!
I’m here interviewing Sammy the Great White Shark here at the Coral Reef. Tell me Sammy, “What’s it like to be you?”
“It’s terrible, Carl. Everyone thinks I’m mean and nasty. That all I do is go around and bite people. But I’m a nice guy, really I am. But nobody will believe me.”
Well, folks, that is interesting. “Why then do you have all those huge teeth, Sammy? Sammy, are you listening? Hey, hold on a minute! Get your teeth out of my tail! Ladies and gentlemen, I seem to be having some technical difficulty! Sammy stop it! Yikes! This is Carl Croc signing off till next time!” If there is a next time!
An Octopus Loves Me
I just left Olivia the Octopus and must I say that she almost squeezed me to death with all her eight arms. No one ever hugged me as tight as Olivia. She says she loves me, but does she have to hug me so hard with all those arms to show me? I am squished!
I don’t know what to do, but I think I’ll only visit her when I’m with Sammy the Great White Shark!
The Dog Who Thought He Was Human
Hi, folks! I came up on land the other day because of a big storm brewing over the sea. I thought I would be safer there.
I traveled around the state and meet a dog who thinks he is a human.
It was funny. He thought he was a human, but looked like a dog. He tried to convince me. He sat at the table like a human. He ate with a knife and a fork like a human. He even drank a glass of milk with one paw. But he still could not convince me. Maybe it was because he was covered with fur like a dog. Or because he sniffed me with his little dog nose. Or because he sniffed other dogs with his little dog nose!
He’s silly. He may think he is human, but he will always be a dog. On my next trip to visit, I will bring him some glasses!
Willy or not???
Hi, Carl Croc here. I’m interviewing Willy the big blue whale. “Tell me Willy, how is it like being a whale?”
“It’s really interesting Carl, it’s just most of the fish think I’m a mean nasty whale all because I’m big! I try to be nice but nobody believes me.”
“Well that’s interesting Willy. Then why are you so big Willy? Willy, are you listening? No wonder all the fish think your nasty your eating them!” This is Carl Croc signing off till next time.
