The dog was gone for almost a week Patrick and his family were so worried. They were out looking day and night. They were about to give up but then Patrick thought of their favourite place to go and it was down by the river where the old tree stood. They quickly ran like there was no tomorrow, to finally reach the river. There the dog stood facing the river looking at his shadow with the tree behind him. Patrick was so happy he ran over and shouted ``Mario you are safe!” They were so happy walking away to celebrate!

Do you know, Caoimhe, often I praise children for their choice of words, their use of figurative language or their creation of strong imagery. Yet your writing inspired by this prompt has shown me that sometimes, the simple telling of a story can actually be just as powerful! I was really struck by your story, the love that people have for their dogs, the worry if they go missing, and the joy when they are reunited. Storytelling is a skill and with this 100WC, you have done it so successfully. Well done, Caoimhe! Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
