“The Monster”

          One night it was dark and windy. Then I heard a noise in my closet. I looked in my closet. I saw a gray tail, brown eyed thirteen foot tall monster!

I woke up early to look for a jar, but I could not find a jar. Then I had to go to school. I thought about where a jar could be while I was at school. After school I went home and I found a jar.  I set up a trap and caught the monster in the jar.

I took the monster to the museum and a scientist looked at it. He said I was famous. Then I went home. I told my mom and I asked her if I could go tell my friends. My mom said I could if I wanted to. So I told my friends and my friends told their moms.

I found my monster in my sister’s room. She was pink with blue spots. She had two eyes, two legs, and two arms.

This is how I caught my monster. I put out a trap on my floor. The monster came to the trap and I caught her.

She is nice now. She is my pet. I have made a bed for her. She loves it. She is so nice now.

I knew it was some prankster, so I just went outside. Then I saw something. I followed it. It went into the woods. Then it stopped. I tried to get as better look at it. Finally I saw it. It was green. It had black eyes.

          My family was going on vacation for one week, but I had to stay. I was wondering how I was going to catch this thing. I knew a man who did deals. I went to him. He said id I gave him six wood planks he would give me shrinking powder. I gave him the wood planks. He gave me the shrinking powder. I found the monster. I threw it at the monster. The monster got smaller and smaller. I picked him up and put him in a jar.

          I was wondering what to do with it. then I saw something in the back of his neck. For some reason it was glowing. I pulled it out. The monster started to calm down. It became nicer. Then it became cuter. I decided to keep it as a pet.

“The Scary Monster”

          Once upon a time there was a little boy and a little girl. One night they were getting ready for bed.

          “I hear a sound,” said the little girl. “It is a monster!” she cried. “It’s under my bed. Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

          “It has two heads and six arms,” cried the boy.

          “Close the door,” the girl said “We have to catch it.”

          “We will have to sneak up on the monster,” said the little boy.

          They got a jar and started to sneak up on the monster.

          “We caught the monster,” said the girl.

          “Let’s turn the jar into a home for the monster,” said the girl.

          “Good idea,” said the boy.

          “Let’s paint the jar too,” said the girl.

          “How are we going to do that?” said the boy

          “I know,” said the girl. “I have special paint.”

          “OK,” said the boy.

          So they painted the jar for the monster and they kept the monster as a pet.

          “So we now have a monster,” said the girl. “Ya! We did it.”

          I used lettuce for bait in a jar. When they smelled the lettuce they went in the jar. I put the lid on the jar.  I picked up the jar and looked at the monsters. The monsters were cute.

          I let them stay until the summer. They lived under my bed. They were really nice monsters, but then they became sad. They missed their mom and dad. They went home.

          I was sleeping in my room, when I heard a scratching noise. I looked at my wall and saw a scratch mark on it. I hid under my blanket for half an hour. Then I saw a monster under my bed. It was blue and slimy too!

          So I made a big jar trap. The monster came over to the jar. I cut the rope and the monster was trapped in the jar.

          I made him my pet. I feed him every day. I bought him six toys to play with. He is a happy monster.

    After I caught the monster, I let the monster out so we could play for fifteen minutes. He raced around the yard. Then, we played tug-of-war with a rope. The monster escaped and I checked everywhere, but I could not find him until I got back to school.

          I set a trap for the monsters. I put up a trap at my door. There were three chairs by the door. When they went by the chairs a jar fell on them and caught them.

          I let the monsters go because they were sick. They had the chicken pox. I hope they got better.

          So I decided to catch him.  This was my plan. I got a jar, a stick, and monster food. I put the stick in the jar to make it stay up. Then I put the monster food in the jar. I hid. The monster went in. He hit the stick and the jar fell on him. Now what will I do with him?

          One night I got hungry and I went downstairs. I heard a creak. I looked up and nothing was there. I kept walking and I saw something white and pink. I walked closer and closer and it turned on the light. It was a little animatronic. It only had one eye and it only had fur on its head. She told me her birthday was March 19th.

          I looked around for a jar. I got a jar. I picked up the monster and it bit me. I dropped it into the jar.

          I sometimes let it out of the jar. I let it look around. I let it sleep under my bed. It is really not a bad monster.

“The Monster”

          One night my family and I took a walk. We were fine, but then we saw a shadow. Next we saw a monster. It was a big monster, a very big monster with six eyes and six arms. It was dark purple and hot pink. It tried to hurt us, but it did not hurt us. We went home and we were safe.

          The next day we went outside and we saw the monster.  We thought and thought.

          “I got it,” I said with a smile. “We can make a trap.”

          But how I thought? Maybe we could use a rope and a jar. If we tie the rope around the jar and the other end of the rope on a tree, we could untie the rope when the monster comes. And that will trap it. It worked! We captured the monster.

          I made a machine that turned the monster into a cat. I gave her food and water. I took care of her. And I played with her. I think she likes me. And I like her too.

          I asked the monster if he liked to ride bikes. We went bike riding. We had fun. We became good friends.
