The Hoppity Hop Came to Life

Once there was a hoppity hop. But he wasn't a hoppity hop horse, he was a hoppity hop dog. The little owner didn't know that when she was gone her little hoppity hop would come to life.

One morning the little owner whose name was Jarrah went shopping with her mother. Her big sister whose name was Amelie stayed at home because she didn't want to go. While Amelie was cooking, the hoppity hop started to come to life. The hoppity hop did not know that Amelie could hear and didn't know that Amelie was there. So when Amelie heard jumping and laughing she came to look. She thought it was the hoppity hop. Was she right? When she saw, she was right. She knew. Because she saw. Then she told the hoppity hop to stop jumping and laughing. He went still again but he was not just still - he was dead just like a hoppity hop that is dead. But he could come to life again.

So when Jarrah got home with her mother and all the groceries, Amelie told Jarrah that the hoppity hop came to life when she was gone, but Jarrah didn't believe it. So Amelie told her that when she was big enough and stayed home like Amelie did, she would get to hear the hoppity hop jumping and bumping into the wall and laughing with glee.

The End.
By Amelie.

Amelie, your writing is wonderful, but your imagination is superexcellent! We're going to have to tell Raggedy Ann all of Hoppity Hop's adventures when you come down this week!
