The Snow Globe
by Amelie
One day, Lucy was in the loft, when she came across the old Christmas stuff from last year. Lucy saw a glimpse of something glowing brightly, she bent down and pulled out a globe of some sort. I can't remember this from last year, she said. I wonder when it got up here? When she went downstairs and saw her younger brother, Edmund, she hid the snowglobe behind her back because she didn't want him to see it. But then, her Mum and older sister Kate, came down the stairs, so she threw it on the sofa.
Seconds later, she thought she saw it glow again!
When Kate and Edmund went out, she ran to the snowglobe and quickly put it in her bedroom. Then she went downstairs and said to her Mum 'Did you have a snowglobe when you were younger?' Mum said, 'Now I think of it, yes I did', I got it from your Grandma when I was nine. It had little snowflakes with glitter inside. Lucy asks, 'Where did she get it from?' Mum said, your Grandma told me she got it from somewhere called Crosper Road, a magical Island. She said it was magical, just like the Island was. I remember your Grandma saying that in 32 years, if anyone found it, they would be able to go into the snowglobe for an adventure with their two friends!
Two weeks went past and Lucy's best friends, Primrose and Lavender, came round to play. Lucy told them all about her mum and the snow globe. Lavender said, your Mum was 9 when her Grandma gave it to her, and now she is 41 years old. That means, you're going into that! shouted Primrose ... pointing at the snow globe. Lucy said, and you will come too. 'What?' said her two friends. Lucy said, remember what my mum said about two friends going with the person who found it? At that moment, just like magic, there was a glimmer of snowflakes and they were inside the snowglobe! It was snowing all around and they saw that they were in a small town with blue and red houses and a Church. There were big snowflakes everywhere! At that moment, there was a black flash and a witch appeared. Then everything froze around them and the witch was standing right next to the frightened girls. Who are you? asked the girls. My name is Grace Hope replied the witch. And who are you? asked the witch. We are Lucy, Primrose and Lavender. The witch said to Lucy 'you are Amy's daughter?' Yes, said Lucy. How do you know that? Grace said, because we used to be friends, until she left to go into the real world. Lucy shouts, you must do the right thing and unfreeze everyone, then once you've done a good thing, you'll be able to come back with us and see Mum again! So the witch unfroze everyone and they all went home together to get some pizza! The End.
