Zoo Persuasive Writing By Drevyn
Animals should be in the wild because in the zoo they can be lonely because they could have taken the baby or the mum or dad. They can be really lonely, which is sad for the animals. Some of the animals can not have that much space because there can be so many animals in one like birds in cages they can get older and then they can get really smashed and can probably die in the cage with no air and can not breath properly and that is sad when they die.
Zoos should not be allowed because you can go online to look at animals because sometimes you can not pat them and you are just wasting money and if you do not have a phone you can watch it on the tv. You can learn more by going to the library and reading a lot of books about animals.You can learn as much as just going to the zoo.Animals can get bored because they probably have to get ready everyday and that is kinda boring like every morning yeah that will be really boring.
Zoos should not be here because some zoos just like to get big animals like tigers and elephants and like lions but some do not like to get small animals like mia cat and spider monkeys and little animals like that is really sad. I feel sorry for them.

The chewed up pencil.
The chewed up pencil
The pencil was cheap looking, it had scratches that looked like it was from wild cats.
It's saving grace was that it was sharp, very sharp.
Sharp enough to pierce through a coat and stab a human.
I usually pretended that my pencil was like a dark red lightsaber
used in the movie star wars.
Teeth marks at the top from someone that had teeth sharp like a shark
made it look like it got scratched from Aquaman's pitchfork .
The long munched up pencil is now in my secret safe that nobody will use.
It is my special pencil that I will keep even when I am a grandpa.
My chewed up pencil can still draw and sketch and does the trick.

A moment in Time
I heard cicadas outside making croaking sounds. I heard kids having fun climbing trees. I saw people climbing up big trees and little trees. I felt the fresh wind in the air. I felt happy because I got to climb trees with all my friends. I wondered about the big tree and climbing all the way to the top. I imagined the little tree was a big tree and climbing to the top. I imagined falling but nothing happening to me.
