The room on the broom (Storytelling)

This is an adaptation that is created by two mates and me for the subject "storytelling". This entry is about a well-known tale "The room on the broom"

The room on the broom

The witch had a cat

And a very tall hat,

And a long blond hair

With a beautiful ponytail.

The cat and the witch

Started their trip

On the broomstick

Flew through the wind

Suddenly the wind blew so wildly

It blew off her hat.

A dog found find the hat

And called the witch and the cat

-Thank you so much!- said the witch

-Can I go with you?- asked the dog

-Of course you can!-

And the dog dropped it politely.

Suddenly the wind blew so wildly

It blew off her glasses.

A bird found the glasses

And called the witch, the cat and the dog.

-Thank you so much!- said the witch.

-Can I go with you?- asked the bird.

-Of course you can!- cried all of them.

Suddenly the wind blew so wildly

It blew off her magic wand.

A frog found the magic wand

And called the witch, the cat, the dog and the bird.

-Thank you so much!- said the witch.

-Can I go with you?- asked the frog.

-Of course you can!- cried all of them.

All the animals are hungry

And the witch decided to cook a delicious meal.

She asked the animals for some food

And they went.

While they were searching for food

A dragon scared them.

-A big dragon is coming!- shouted the animals.

-I`m sorry, I didn`t want to scare you- said the dragon.

-Don’t worry animals, he is my friend- said the witch.

And all of them ate the great meal that they have cooked.
