The Early Morning Stroll

She walked along the brightly lit street and peeked through the shop windows. “Blue curtains for that and mistletoe on the doorway for this.”

“RWAR!”

She twisted around and came face to face (or almost, since he was a bit taller) with a green dinosaur.

“Han, stop messing around here; you know you’re not supposed to be anywhere near the dollhouse,” she said pushing the dinosaur into a nearby store just as the lights came on.

“Julie! How many times do I tell you to not touch my toys.”

  2. Lovely take. I enjoy how kids have no boundaries or reality when playing with toys. Dinosaur in a dolls house – why not?!

    1. Yup. Though I guess the dinosaur had it tough since his head kept bumping against the roof.

  4. Dear Bernadette,

    Children are blessed with such brilliant imaginations. Too bad they have to grow into adults. 😉 Well done.

    Shalom,

    1. So true! And to think there aren’t many (popular) books written by kids.

      1. Huh. Never thought about that. The first one that came to mind was “The Diary of Anne Franke,” which was not fiction at all.
