Our First 'Writer of the Week'

3rd Feb 2023

This week's 'writer of the week' is Amelia in Year 4 for her description of when Leon enters the box and gets transported to another world in the book Leon and the Place Between by Angela Mcallister and Graheme Baker-Smith.                              

As I leapt onto the wonderous, lilac stage, all eyes were on me and it made my legs tremble like I was breaking into pieces.  I hurried into the box and heard a voice screaming until I realised it was my voice!  When I cautiously looked down,  I was absolutely terrified to my bones.  I was falling!  I was getting closer and closer until... BANG!  I had fallen but when I looked around-I didn't regret going into this mysterious, mystery box.  Magic vines dangled in the calm wind.  Creamy white doves flew gracefully as a beam of light caught my eye.  I peered up and saw Abdul Kazam's intense face staring at me as I opened my mouth and exclaimed,                                                                                                                                                        

  "Where am I?"                                                                                                                                                                                

"You will see soon," he responded sharply.                                                                                                                                    

 My heart pounded as I looked at the crystal, shining floor.  I thought it was a dream so I pinched myself.  I carefully looked up and saw the lanterns shining like glistening stars.  I prayed to get out of here.  Was I trapped?  Or was there a way out?
