George and the big wide river

This is George and his family he lives in the Charleston River in Boston, Massachusetts. George loves his family a lot. He has 3 sisters and 2 brothers. There's Sammy, Lisa, Nicole then there's Mike, John, and me!

One day George and his family were looking for food. Then they heard a LOUD BOOM. They all started to panic. Mother duck started collecting all her little ones to get out of the water. She was in such a rush she didn’t notice George Didn’t get out with them

George started to get scared he didn’t know what to do he didn’t know were his family was. He started to swim around looking for land to get on to. George finally found a piece of land with a little dam. He didn’t know how to get past it. George started looking around and found a beaver. Hi my names Justin, Justin Beaver. Nice to meet you Justin can you help me get across the dam.

“Well of course I can I made this dam here myself.” said the beaver. So they crossed the dam and George was back on his way to find his family. He noticed that the beaver had kept on following him. He didn’t know why. So he turned around and said um excuse me why are you following me? In response the beaver said well I'm a little lonely no one usually comes by to say hi or ask for help. OH I'm sorry I'm trying to find my family I lost them in the storm. I’ll come with you then Your just a lil duckling you need my help. And then off we went.

George and Justin Beaver were on their way to the harbor. Close to where George lived. They came across a sea gull on a dock. They asked him a mother duck with five ducklings. He said “ yes, in fact,” and nodded his head to the right, “ wait! Who are you? I'm Mike the sea gull”. Then George said “ I’m George a lil duckling, this is my friend Justin.” George explained how he lost his family and that Justin was helping him. Mike the sea gull asked if he could come along.

George, Justin, and Mike all were traveling in the water. After almost two hours of swimming they got to the beach. George and his friends saw his family. All of his brothers and sisters were crying and his mother had a worried look on her face. George yelled “MOMMY!” and everyone in his family looked over and waddled as fast as they could into the water. And in the end the beaver and the sea gull became family friends and every one lived happily ever after.

The End
