Jenny went over to look at the magician’s magic tricks. That’s when she found out her mom was gone! Jenny didn’t know that her mom went shopping for shoes, and then a police came over and said that he was in a hurry to catch a robber at the store stealing people’s shoes! Then Jenny went to the shoe store and peeked in. Jenny saw her mom and lots of people without shoes on. That’s when the police went in and was about to cuff him when Jenny jumped in and tackled the robber and started to punch him. The cop was amazed that a six year old could punch a robber. That’s when the cop went in and cuffed the robber and gave the shoes all back to the belongers. That’s when Jenny couldn’t find her mom because the crowds of people srode out of the shoe store. So, Jenny also went out and the cop gave Jenny a juice bottle and thanked her a lot. Then, the cop took the robber to jail. That’s when Jenny found her mom putting her shoes back on! 1.6.2021

Lulie MaeBig, fat tears started streaming down Jenny's face. She went into the store where the magician was. She was going to ask him for help, but she tripped over her long dress and flew behind a shoe shelf. She stood up dazed and confused. She heard whispering so she peeked from behind the shelf. The magician had a baseball bat and was threatening the shoe store owner that he would bang his lights out. Jenny ran toward the door, but then the shoe keeper said "Run little girl, go far away and I shall be left here sorrowly." Jenny rolled her eyes at his drama. But the magician was running toward her, with the baseball bat!
Jenny ran and ran and ran toward the police office. But tripped on her dress! When she fell she thought all was lost, but then she bounced off the floor! Her dress spun around making a strong gust of wind. The magician was still running toward her when she drew her fist back. Her mother had told her never to punch people but Jenny knew she had to punch this guy. The magician came closer, and then she punched with such force it knocked the magician over. Then she jumped on him and pretended he was a broken trampoline. "Stop!" The magician gasped. " Why?" She asked in a taunting voice. " Are you my mom?" "yes" Said the magician hoping this would work. "ok." She said "Help! Stranger Danger! He's kidnapping me!!!" The Police came out immediately. They handcuffed the robber, and took Jenny into his office. 1.7.2021
