This collection of stories and poems was written by our second grade class. The first story was written in the fall semester, the second in the spring. It's fun to see us then and now: what a difference a year makes! In addition, important adults at our school give us a peek into some of their first important writing experiences. When we're older, we'll read and remember all fun we had in second grade.

A remarkable compilation of new plot lines in one anthology. Hollywood will be beating down the door. These fictional legends and short works offer the brain several new and exciting adventures. A petroglyph of the southwest has an encounter with a concert flutist in "Kokopelli Encounter." Shakespeare awakens in a day labor office in New Jersey, works the day with plumbers who convince him to rewrite Hamlet as a RAP sonnet. A crippled young boy, captive of the Sioux, fights to find a way in life within a warrior society. A dark court room drama covers the States decision to give fetal status, (read disposable) to all prisoners with 18 or more years sentence. Two separate stories of the fabled Dreamkeeper Tree in the Teton Mountains of Wyoming. One has the Shoshone legend NunumBi, the dwarfs who shoot invisible arrows. Terror needs satire and the new Mirror Schools are the answer to the Madrasses. Both teach hate. "Horror of the Angels" presents forty million Angels who show up on a Sunday Halloween said to be the aborted of those they seek. "Upload" is a political/satire/comedy of through the looking glass. Alice falls into a huge computer monitor in the British Embassy and finds logic in D.C. "Cryogenics" offers unique situations to those who return with emphasis on where they return from. And there's more.

Casey and his sisters had no idea that two teenagers trespassed onto their property. These intruders were mesmerized when they saw Casey's younger sister ordering the birds to fly her to the pond. These flying creatures grabbed her clothes with their beaks and bills and elevated her high up in the air. "Could this place be haunted?" the teens wondered. "How do the children get these animals to obey them?" The intruders decided to follow the children to Uncle John's cabin. They wanted to find out the answers to their questions. After having sworn the children to secrecy, Uncle John showed them his underground laboratories. He explained how snow, rain, and hail are formed. The siblings had fun playing in the labs. They made snow angels in the snow lab and they experienced zero gravity in the gravity lab. The intruders discovered the secret labs and managed to sneak in. They almost froze in the snow lab and nearly drowned when a storm developed in the ocean lab. How did the animals get their super powers? The answer to this question, plus many educational and moral lessons can all be discovered in this unique place called Magic Farm.
