GOT WINNERS?

Thanks to everyone who sent in stories revising old fairy tales.

Here's the one we thought was the best this week:

By Andrew P:

A Takeoff on the Three Little Pigs

Once upon a time there were three really BIG wolves. They left to seek their fortune.

The first wolf made his house from bricks.

The second made his from twigs.

The third made his from grass.

Then, a little tick who loved to stick to wolves came and said with a high and tiny voice came to the first house and started to yell "Come out of there now of I'm gonna have to crawl into that house of yours and do things the hard way!"  The continued on like this until the high-pitched voice started to annoy him. 

When the big wolf opened the door, he heard a little crunch under his feet and then he heard no more of the annoying sound. 

After that, the wolves lived happily ever after 

And here's another terrific one.

By Dave S:

A Takeoff on Good Night Moon

Sweet Dreams Lunar Sphere 

In the big, olive colored area of the house

There was a cellular device 

And a scarlet balloon

And an artist’s rendering of--

The bovine leaping over the lunar sphere

And there were a trio of tiny grizzlies relaxing on seats

And a duo of baby cats

And a set of gloves

And a miniature toy domicile

And a youthful rodent

And hair care implements and a bowl filled with oatmeal

And a silent female octogenarian who was murmuring “shush”

Sweet dreams room

Sweet dreams lunar sphere

Sweet dreams bovine leaping over the lunar sphere

Sweet dreams illumination coming from the lamps

And the scarlet balloon

Sweet dreams grizzlies

Sweet dreams seats

Sweet dreams baby cats

And sweet dreams gloves

Sweet dreams time-keeping devices

And sweet dreams cozy footwear

Sweet dreams miniature domicile

And sweet dreams rodent

Sweet dreams hair care items

Sweet dreams nobody

Sweet dreams oatmeal

And sweet dreams to the female octogenarian murmuring “shush”

Sweet dreams fiery balls of gas in the sky

Sweet dreams oxygen

Sweet dreams cacophonous sounds everywhere
