ÜppIssDowwn Day - Muskaan Mittal

Muskaan Mittal, 10 yrs.English

UppIssDowwn Day!!

Once there was a boy called Amar who went out to play with his roller.

He practically made his roller go all around the mountains but that was till Uppissdowwn happened.

When Uppissdowwn happened, Amar was rolling his roller down the mountains. Suddenly, he found himself rolling on the other side of the world up the North Pole.

Amar was friends with a boy called John who knew a nosy, mean girl called Matilda.

One day, John was going through his loft when he found a gold coin. Suddenly, he saw Matilda running off screaming gold coin. He hurriedly left the gold coin on his bed and went after Matilda to warn her not to tell anyone else about it.

When he came back, the gold coin was not on his bed. His first thought was that Matilda had stolen it, but then he realized that even Matilda could not be that mean. It was when he peeked under his bed that he found the gold coin; it must have first rolled off his bed, and then under.

Little did John realize that his coin had just experienced Uppissdowwn day.

Amar and John also knew a boy called Samarth, who had a dog called Mustard. Mustard was always running away and Samarth often had trouble finding him.

One day, Samarth was happily sharing potatoes with Mustard. Uppissdowwn chose that moment to happen.

Suddenly he felt the whole world around him lurch and he found himself yards away from Mustard. When they saw each other, they started running towards each other so fast that Mustard nearly fell into the hole which they had dug for the potatoes.

All of this happened because the moon, stars and sun all had come down to play with children!

When this happens, the whole Earth starts to tilt this way and that way at 36.5 times the usual rate!!
