School Is Over!

By: Steven J. Butler, Jr. (Buckstevenson)

“School is over, class” said the teacher. The third grade class ran out of the classroom, some kids ran home and others went on the bus. Everyone left the classroom, even the teacher Ms. Jay. The only living creature left in the room was the pet frog, Zach the Frog.

The door to Zach’s cage was left open by mistake. Zach hopped out of his cage like a rabbit, even though he is a frog. He ran over a puzzle of the USA that was lying on the ground. Then Zach hopped into the nearest bathroom. He jumped into the sink looking for a lily pad. (It’s good that he didn’t jump into the toilet instead). He couldn’t find any lily pads, so Zach exited the bathroom.

Then he went into the Lunchroom. He jumped on top of a hot dog. The janitor, whose name was Steve, found Zach stuck in the hot dog bun. Steve took the frog back to his cage in the classroom, and locked the door. The sun came up the next day. The third grade class was back in school the next morning. About an hour after school started, a student noticed that there was a hot dog bun in Zach’s cage. But the student did not see Zach, at least not right away.

Zach was actually hiding under the hot dog bun. Because now, Zach was a “hot frog”!

THE END!
