Dante's Inferno (Part 3)

Image
The third circle of hell. The boat now was coming to a place where the Gluttons lived. Dante saw a sort of beast with three heads and a huge body barking. Virgil threw some dirt into it's mouth. The punishment here was the fat people gluttons would have to eat gross dirt forever. It was terrible and dark and dreary. But they started for the fourth circle of hell.  The fourth circle of hell. Dante saw a bunch of rocks and huge boulders moving. At first it looked as though they were moving by themselves. But soon he saw men pushing them. They would knock the boulders on each other. This circle was called greed. These people used to be on earth the ones who stole and killed and took money! They were greedy people. It was horrible... more horrible than ever. After they'd knock each other with the boulders, they'd have to turn around and do it again. Dante couldn't  believe what he was seeing. They started for the Fifth circle of hell.    The fifth ...

Mason Bees. My narration.

The mason bee is a wonderful creation. And you will see why. Because I will tell you what I know about them. In this case I will tell you a story of a young mason bee girl named Lavender. The mason bee looks just like a fly. Not all the time though. Sometimes they look like black bees. Have you ever heard of black wasps? People say that they don't sting or anything. I am not sure that is true. Honestly, I don't see the difference between different colored wasps and bees. But Mason bees. Oh yes! They are different.  Lavender the mason bee first was born in a tidy house nest made by her mother. She was a larva and never seen her mother. But she gracefully eats her wonderful meal that her mother prepared for her. Honey, delicious and sweet. Lavender lightly eats before she realizes that she is starving! She eats all that she can. She is nice and fat after a long a good meal she gets sleepy and start to fall asleep. Her mother goes back in and makes more food for her babies. Then...

Dante's Inferno (Part two) The First and second circle of hell.

Second Circle of Hell. In mortal world First circle of hell 😦☹ Dante in the boat came up to a land. The first circle of hell. He saw that there was no sadness nor happiness. There really wasn't any feelings there. He saw a beautiful castle with a patch of green grass was some poets talking of great and good things. But the light and brightness soon went away into a choking darkness. The air and darkness whirled around powerfully. Like a tornado whirling poor little birds place to place without any mercy. Soon there were two lovers and Dante cried out with love and wanting to talk to them. A women and a man named Francesca (Fran-ches-ka) and Paolo (Pow-lo). They came and Dante knew the sadness that had happened in Florence. They had died and it was like a tragedy. Their story began with Francesca getting married for business reasons. But the man who was getting married to her was deformed and didn't want to frighten the young bride so he sent his brother Paolo to repre...

Coins (I drew these) Timing. Sorry for the pictures that way.... I couldn't fix them so a tip is if you aren't on a computer is scroll down your settings bar then look for the rotate thing and click so it wont rotate when you rotate your phone. Then flip it right side up! Or if you don't want to do that then just deal with the rotated picture. :) 

Ethelred the Unready and Edmund Ironside. Our Island Story. By: H.E Marshal. Narrated by me.

Image
Edward the Elder was a wise and good king and his sister named Ethelfleda was also very good and wise. She led the soldiers out to battle. Soon the Danish attacked again. They didn't really keep their promises. And she led them out to battle as usual. After Edward died and his sister died also he gave his son the throne. His name was Athelstane was also a very wise and good king. After he died the young kings began. Some of them were wise and also very good and others were not so good and should have not been the king. The last of the young kings was named Ethelred. He was a horrible leader and they called him Ethelred the Unready. There was agony everywhere because of his choices his people fell. They argued with one another. And the Danish came and attacked them again and he came up with a stupid plan. He decided that he would pay the Danish a large amount so that they would go away. They loved the idea and left with money. Soon they spent all the money and came back for more lik...

The Black Plague (also known as bubonic plague or the black death) story by me.

In Europe there was an army about to attack a city. A girl lived there named Mary.  Men walked into the town with terrible news telling everyone that they are soon to be attacked by another army! Mary was frighted by the shock of the terrible news. She ran along to her house and opened the door. "Catherine! Mother! Jane! We are going to be attacked!" cried Mary. Her mother looked at her Jane washing the clothes and Catherine cleaning the table. "What? Where did you hear such nonsense!? We've had peace for years!" her mother looked at her as though she were crazy. "I really did hear it mother! I heard it on my way to the market! Lots of mean ridding horses came in at were yelling as though there lungs would pop any moment!" Mary told them what happened but her sisters and her mother didn't believe her. "You know what they say. Children tell stories." laughed Jane smirking. The door slammed open and father came in. Mary turned around. Fat...

The Good Master. by: Kate Seredy

An old man sat at his mill. "Can you tell us stories?" asked Janci, walking toward him. a few moments later the man led Janci and Kate over to a grassy hill. "What kind of stories do you like?" asked the man looking at Janci. Janci replied "I like stories about dragons and horses and magical!" Kate added "And far away lands!" The man nodded. "Well the story I'm going to tell you is all of those things!"  Long ago there lived a prince named Matyas who was very lazy and never worked. He had a servant named Matyi. Matyi had to do everything for prince Matyas! Even button up his shirt. The prince only liked having fun times and would pick fights with his neighbors! He had no friends. One night the prince must have eaten too much because he had a funny dream. He dreamed of a far away land in which no man could die. They lived forever! Soon the man woke up that morning and was more grumpy then ever! Matyi got irritated and soon blurted ...
