Roger’s Best Dream
By Manaaim Somani
Once upon a time there lived a frog and he lived happily with his family. The frog was named Roger and was 5 years old. One day he helped an animal by saving him from a tiger. On that night he had a dream that a fairy gave him magical powers to fly. The next night a short pretty looking fairy appeared at the frog’s house. The frog was surprised to see a fairy since it was the first time for him.
Then he said “Why are you here? Are you here to give me some magical powers?”
The fairy says” Yes I have come to give you magical powers because you saved an animal’s life. Now listen here you have to promise me that you will not misuse your powers.”
Next Roger says “Yes I promise.” But, once he forgot about his promise to the fairy and misused his powers. Then the fairy appeared again and looked angry and scary.
The fairy yelled and said “How dare you misuse my powers. Now I will take your powers back.”
