Story by Laura , for Jane

"Have you ever wanted a pet cat, Sally?" Uncle Bill asked.
"Oh yes. A gold cat with white paws." Christine said.
"Well, let me tell you a story about a girl that wanted a cat, and she got one."

A girl named Sally wanted a cat so bad! She said to her mother, "I want a cat. A gold cat with white paws." Sally, who was about six or seven years old then could not have cat now. Having a cat was a BIG responsiblity. So she'll have to wait til she turns eight years old.

All day Sally kept asking, "Is it my birthday now?" And she always got the same reply, "You know your birthday is in August, and not evey month. "But I want my birthday to every month!"

Sally complained. Every other month Sally kept complaining about her gold cat with white paws. But on August 12, a surprise happened to Sally. Her grandfather, gave her a gold cat with white paws. It was like a wish come true.

"Sally was just like me." Christine said.
"Yep. And look." Uncle Bill said pointing beside him.
Christine look. She saw a gold cat with white paws, and tail that wags.
"It is a wish come true!" Christine said.

The End
