Delisy Mo’s Popcorn was a big hit, thanks to Stella and her amazing tricks, like singing, dancing and doing flips. One by one ball’s were flying up and away.

Bang, there was a strange man in front of the door,”I’m here for an old friend of mine”.he grins,”may i help you said one of the cleaners”.she replied,”lizz.” the man whispered.

Stella’s ears went up straight away. A tall figure came out of the hall, what was she doing there?

BANG! The man fall to the ground. Everyone was dead silent.”what, what he was going to plant a boom right under us, i’m the good guy, not him. everyone was looking confused.”Lizz ran out of the room with Stella right behind her.

Lizz and Stella were banished. No one ever goes to Delisy Mo’s Popcorn. “But where did Stella and Lizz go, will be right back with you after the bark thank you and good night”.

My Speech

Toy poodle, Husky, German Shepherd, Chihuahua or even a Labrador… i don't care what kind, big or small… or even what colour… i just need a dog!

I know they’re a lot of work…

But i know i'd be good at taking care of one! See, i could take my puppy for walks- that way we’d both keep fit! And i would be sure to clean up its poop!

I would feed my puppy every day, and sneak him my left overs so mum and dad thought i'd eaten all my dinner!

I would teach him cool tricks like how to sit roll over and do my homework!

We would be best friends- we wouldn't fight like me and my brother do.

And i could train him to be our guard dog to bark at people who knock at our door, and keep our visitors out!!! Let me have a dog!

There's just one problem…

I know dogs cost money-registration, vet bills, the cost of their food, and their diamond collars! But i'm not the type to carry my pooch in my handbag!

We could take our dog out- to the beach, or walk in the park, or anywhere- i bet it would behave better than my little sisters do and it wouldn't drip ice cream all over itself!
