I love the shoes but I'm not sure I'm brave enough to it."
Storee looked down at her feet and started to giggle. She was wearing one black shoe and one purple shoe! When Storee confessed her mistake the new girl laughed along with her and said, "I like you. You have style and a sense of humor." Storee's oops was funny, wasn't it? Which pair do you like better?

Gone Fishing - Writing Prompt

Fishing is something everyone can do. It doesn't matter how old you are or if you're a boy or a girl. You can fish in a river, a pond, a lake, or the ocean. Of course, you must always have an adult with you and get a fishing license where required but fishing with a buddy is part of the fun and being safe means everyone will have a good time.

Write a story about going fishing. It can be true or made up. Write about the one that got away or the ones you caught and released. Did you catch something other than a fish like the boy in this picture? Maybe you didn't catch anything at all but you still had fun. Wouldn't it be funny if you did catch a bookworm?
