The day I was as little as a Weta (published writing)

The day I was as little as a Weta.

The Weta is titchy and I am tiny too.  I went under the leaves and I saw the Weta.  I went on the Weta’s back and went for a ride.

One Day I shrank to the size of a Weta. I was so confused. I saw a Weta and it was my pet.  It was bigger than me.  I rode on it and then I made us a house. We went for a walk together and we saw a beautiful butterfly and we chased it.  I still want to be bigger.

One day I shrank to the size of a Weta. I was very little and I like it because my colour is golden on my back.  The Weta lives in a tree and I live there too.  I rode on it back and it was brilliant.

One day I shrunk until I was the size off a Weta. I felt like I was dreaming about a Weta. But I wasn't dreaming. I looked around and there was heaps of leaves. I didn't know where I was. I was so scared but knew I was in a jungle because of all the leaves.

One day I shrank to the size of a Weta. I would like to climb up my Mum’s legs and tickle her legs.  There was a enormous Butterfly, so I climbed on its back. I flew somewhere with my friend the Weta and we came back on an aeroplane. It was fantastic.

One day I turned to the size of a Weta.  I have a pet Weta. I would put the Weta in a cage with another Weta.  Before I would put it in I would put sticks in the cage.  Me and my Weta’s would be safe.

One day I shrank to the size of a Weta.  I was chased by a Spider.  I got away. 

 I had a lucky escape.

One day I shrank to the size of a Weta.  I got chased by a horrible cricket. I was very scared and lonely.

One day I shrunk to the size of a Weta.  I didn't know where I was.  But then I saw the Weta was the same size as me. I felt very strange. When I looked out of my window I saw everything was humongous!  

We played some games and then I didn't know what to do to get big again. So we made a potion.  She poured it onto me.  I said goodbye and I was big again.

One day I shrank to the size of a Weta.  I was very confused and titchy.  I was so small.  I would tickle my Mum and my Dads legs with my friend the Weta. When I was playing with my friend I sneaked into my classroom and jumped onto Ms Lindfield’s head.  I liked playing with my friend the Weta, but I would like to be big again.

One day I shrank to the size of a Weta.  I didn't know where I was.  I played with my Weta.  I liked my Weta.

One day I shrank down to the size of a little Weta. I was riding on the Weta’s back. I am making a home for my Weta and I am making a light and a bed for my Weta.
