Sample Student Works
You are going to pretend that you are Bloodbottler. Tell me what happened when you walked in the BFG’s cave.
I bashed into the BFG’s cavern. I said, “Are you here Runt?” I heard the BFG saying to try the Snozzcumber and I went to the table but I saw a green snozzcumber and I ate it. It tasted like a horrible pickle and I spit out that terrible taste. I held BFG’s hand tightly and I said that you are a disgrace to the other giants. I said to the BFG that Snozzcumber is disgusting just tasting like a horrible pickle.
I asked a question, “What are you doing with the jar filled with dreams”. I said that humans are yummier and snozzcumber are disgusting. I hunt every night in house girls and boys. I knew that I was a carnivore but I had never seen these interesting green vegetables. I was filled with the grossness when I tried the snozzcumber and I ran because I didn’t ever want to taste the snozzcumber again.
