Drew's Second Writing Composition

To explain, his writing instruction has him taking a well known story, writing an outline of the major points, and then retelling the story on his own.  This time, the story was, "The Ant and the Chrysalis".

The Ant and the Chrysalis                                                                             November 27, 2013

By Drew Phelan

One day there was a chrysalis named Andrew and it was going to come out of its cocoon soon.  There was a mean old ant who came along on a bridge at Tokyo Disney.  The chrysalis was hanging onto that bridge with its silk.  The ant was searching for lunch because it was a sunny day.  And then the ant saw the chrysalis wiggling its tail. 

The ant stated to tease the chrysalis.  "You can't move.  I can move anywhere I want," said the ant.  "I can walk tall trees.  All you are is just stuck in that thing."  The chrysalis was silent. 

The next day when the ant came along, he noticed that there was nothing in the cocoon.  And then, he saw the butterfly soaring in the air.  The butterfly said, "You're stuck on the ground.  I can fly anywhere I want."  And then when the butterfly went low, there was a big shadow of the butterfly above the ant.  The butterfly flew away and he had the best day ever.
