laire had had a boring summer holiday. There was nothing to do exept read.Her friends occaisionaly rang her and her Mum just typed away at her computer.It was fairly late so she watched her faveorite programme and went to bed.

She read one of her great Harry Potter books for a bit,slid the bookmark on page 40 and closed her eyes.The time was midnight so she soon got to sleep.She dreamed a monster was chasing her.

Suddenly she woke up.There was a bark and a scratch at the door.She tiptoed downstairs and opened their door.A fluffy dog was there.She let it in and took it upstairs.

Her Mum and Dad said she couldn't keep it when she asked so they phoned the R.S.P.C.A and the fluffy dog went there.Claire cried when she heard somebody bought her.Mr Adams had him.Claire lived neer the R.S.P.C.A so she went and helped out at weekends.

"I'm glad for Fluffy Mum"said Claire as she went into school."Well Mr Adams has invited you round to see Fluffy today"said Claire's mum."Wow"cried Claire.

After school Claire ran to Mr Adams house with her Mum.She stroked him all the time she was there."I think he likes you"laughed Mr Adams.

The End
