Raggle-Taggle Chook

After the flood mum dad and Alen walked out from their house. The ground looked very muddy. Alen saw a chook and she went and got it. Alen took the chook to mum and dad. “That thing looks half dead”, said mum. The chook looked like some feathers were plucked off because from that flood. The chook had a macome. “Cut off the chooks head” said dad. “No This chook must been in the flood”, said Alen. “ OK as you insist but you have to be responsible and caring to that chook”, said mum.

Alen took chook outside. Chook plucked out a worm and ate it. Alen's friends came over and they took turns holding the chook. Mum and dad liked the chook to. Mum liked it because the chook laid eggs to make omelets. Dad liked it because he talk to it every day.

One day the chook wondered of to Mr Dicks house. Mr Dick is the neighbour. When Alen came back, chook was gone. Alen went looking for chook. But she didn’t find chook. Then Mr Dick called mum to say the chook was at his house. “Alen you are so in trouble”, said mum. “Go and get chook from Mr Dicks house now”, she said in anger. When Alen walked out the door she thought that he will be angry. Alen saw Mr Dick holding chook. “Hi can I have chook back please” said Alen with a scared face. But Mr Dick kindly gave the chook back to Alen.
