At the beach one day, I was<br />

having lunch with my family. I was<br />

just about to eat my sandwich when a bird<br />

took it and flew off! ‘Hey!’ I yelled. ‘Come back<br />

with my lunch!’ I got up and ran after the bird.<br />

I was looking up, so I didn’t see the big wave coming. Crash!<br />

It took me into the water. Under I went. Round and round I went.<br />

When I finally came up, I was far from the shore. I tried to swim back,<br />

but I wasn’t getting very far. I needed help!<br />

<strong>The</strong>n in the water next to me I saw a fin. Oh, no! A shark! I was going to<br />

be a shark’s lunch! A long grey nose popped up next to me. I saw a<br />

smile and a friendly eye. It was a dolphin! <strong>The</strong>n the eye winked at me.<br />

And in my head I heard, ‘Hold onto my fin. I’ll help you’.<br />

Was the dolphin talking to me? I wasn’t sure, but I held onto its fin. It<br />

took me back to shore. When I felt sand under my feet, I stood up.<br />

‘Thanks!’ I said to the dolphin. It winked again and swam away.<br />

I found my family and told them what had happened.<br />

‘Sure, darling. That’s a nice story’, said Mum. ‘Now off you go and play.’<br />

‘But it’s all true, Mum!’ I said.<br />

‘It really happened!’<br />
