Thias Storis

The newest addition to the Rowe family library:

Thieas Storis
by  Madeleine Rowe

If the title "These Stories" doesn't grab you right off the bat, I don't know what will.



Chaptr 1: kute bunye

"We wr having a grate - time and then we saw a litl BUNye so we - disdid to mace him uor pet.  and we deckoraytid a box and cept him ther.  it was grater then it - alredy was.  We gave - him - food and we payd with - him OH - NO Wat - shoold - we - name - him.  Oh Oh i - have - an - idea.  howe - about - ooo - kute bunye.  that - is - a - grate - idea."


Chaptr 2: for - you - that's - not - good -
"We wr - just - adouwte - to - giv - kute bunye - his - snak.  and then ooo OH - NO - were - is - kut - bunye.  but we wr just - adouwte - to - crye and then uor perrint's found - him and then we didint and - then we - gave - him his snak.  "'well kid's i - thinck we have - to - go - to bed.'"  so we did.  and then daddy snord so loudly that we coudin't sleep.  in - the morning it was a nice butifl day.  "That's - not - good - for - you" kute bunye was eating a choclit - chip - coocy.  and that is not good for bunye's.  so we stop't him just - in - time!  We wr so luky."


Chaptr 3: frst day of school
"it was icksiding.  today was the frst day of colij!  We also have time beafor we have to fedd kut bunye.  and we sang..."Colij colij we get to go to colij."  We wr a - litl - bit - .. skard.  Wen we got ther....WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!  and wene we got home..we had ivin mor fun."


Wow.  This book covered a whole range of issues, from the dilemma over what to name the bunye to the last-minute life-saving methods that prevented kute bunye from eating a choclit-chip-coocy to the attempt to balance colij life with the feeding and care of kute bunye.  I feel like I've been through a marathon with these characters, especially kute bunye.  Bravo on such a powerhouse of a novel, Madeleine!
