Once upon a time there was a magical elf called Alfie. He had a pair of magical shoes that helped him to fly. Sometimes when he was in his workshop he got distracted when he looked on facebook. He was going around with Santa and his friends Michael and Jackson on the sleigh. They were messing about and Alfie fell out of the sleigh...

Harry lived in the countryside. One day he was walking to school with his friend, Timmy. While Harry was walking to the school, he saw some people playing the violin, and he thought he would like to learn an instrument like that. The people were fancy, they always wore fancy clothes wherever they went. They used to practise their music every day in the streets of the village. . .

Bob-Joe has loaded his gold-plated Glock 19. Jeremy sits in the corner crying, because he’s scared of Bob-Joe with the gun.
The orphanage burnt down in 1964 during the war; Bob-Joe was adopted from there and that’s when he met Jeremy. That was 70 years ago. Ever since then, they’ve been friends and have taken over their family-run butchers shop.

“Welcome home from Larne!” said Feargal, as he opened the door to greet Collette. She looked shocked and flustered, as she knew something wasn’t right. Her suspicions were confirmed as she laid her eyes on her dog, who was falling down the stairs. She rushed over to see if the dog was ok, and then she noticed his haircut!...

Knock, knock knock. Eileen knocked on Karen’s mahogany door.
Karen inhaled deeply; Eileen was back. Her heart was beating fast as a drum. Her hands were trembling like leaves on a branch. She suddenly realised what she would have to hide.

“Hi, I know this is last minute,” said Oisin, “but I’m going on holiday.
Could you look after my dog?” Ryan took a step back in shock and confusion. It was a cold and windy day in Ballyharry. The clothes on the line were blowing in the wind from the Atlantic. The waves were crashing against the shoreline.

Justin was sitting in his room, playing on his game console and his game stopped working. He had to get ready to go to his basketball game.
Justin said, ‘My game’s stopped working, Mum.’
‘We don’t have time, we’re late for the game,’ said his mum.
His mum drove him to his game but he was an hour late. His coach shouted at him and made him sit out the entire game. He felt sad and scared because he was worried he’d get kicked off the team...

Once upon a time there was a wee dog called Daffy and he lived in a house beside a river. The house was made of logs and Daffy’s bed was a small version of the house and it had his name on it. Daffy woke up and got out of bed. He had his morning breakfast which was cabbage and shish kebabs.
Daffy was feeling cranky because he was old and tired and hadn’t woken up properly...
