Writing Workshop Work

Madeleine came home with a packet of Writer's Workshop poems and narratives today.  Among the work was this three-paged story with no words and some...um...interesting pictures.  I invite all blog readers to come up with their own words to fit the illustrations!

Here's my crack at it:

A stick-figured girl is FREAKING OUT thinking about a shirt that floated away on the breeze and left her stick body naked.

A benign fairy godmother appeared holding a basket. What's inside is anybody's guess. The stick-figured girl, now dressed once again, is STILL FREAKING OUT.  I'm not sure why.  Maybe the fairy godmother's appearance scared her.  The stick-figured girl is also holding a basket for some reason.


Suddenly, the fairy godmother disappeared and in her place appeared a stick-mommy whose hands were recently amputated, a stick daddy whose hands double as garden rakes, and some other one-handed person with a large protruberance coming out of her head.  The stick girl also appears to have lost a hand, but gosh darn it, she's still got her basket, and that's what counts, right?

Actually, I'm not really sure what counts in this story.  I'm still a little foggy on the details.  Anyone else want to give it a whirl?
