First Draft
My Worst walking day ever.
I was walking down the river bank with my family. My dad was horrified because he saw the lions getting ready to get him and my family. I was feeling frightened because my dad was terrified that he smelt the lions. I heard the lions roaring at me because they wanted me for their delicious lunch.
I could taste the feeling in my mouth that I was going to be eaten, but I wasn’t. On my body I felt so crushed because I had a lot of scratches on my face and body because the lion had sharp claws. When I got caught by the hungry lions it was really scary and it was like ‘Bam’ because she jumped on me and scratched me. Then I saw the crocodile, I saw his razor sharp teeth and it was really big and scary. The lions were really scary because I could see their eyes flashing at my eyes like they were going to eat me. They played tug of war with me.
So now I finally got out of the enormous battle of the Kruger and I now I’m finally free for once. I feel so happy because I am out and with my lovely family.
Well done Anneliese I loved reading your recount. I really like when you didn’t talk about the other people not the calf because I think you were the calf. I think you have to make it a tiny bit longer. I also liked how many how you used interesting words. I also love all your whole story. When I read it the second time I knew you were the calf and I think you have to put Something at the end of bam like a commer or full stop. For the first part of the story you could try and put some more.
