Sample Story for "Imagine if. . . "

London

Nacho

Bake


       Nacho Libre was on his way to his first day of school.  He was living in London, and the good thing was that in London they speak English.  The bad thing was that in London, they don’t speak Spanish.  And  he almost fell in the Thames River.  He was wearing stretchy pants, and felt like a real man!  Seventh grade was going to be great!  
     When he got to school, his first class was foods class.  He knew he was going to be outstanding in that class.  On this first day they were baking cookies.  He loved cookies.  And they were baking chocolate chip cookies – his favorite kind.   There were even some cute girls in class, and he wanted to impress them with his baking skills.  However, when he looked at the recipe, he realized that he could speak some English, but didn’t know how to read it.   He pretended this didn’t bother him, and did his best to make up his own recipe.   

         When his cookies came out, they looked delicious.  He went over to share them with one of the cute girls, and she took a big bite and spit it out!   She said, “Nice try, Nacho, but can’t we just have a salad or something.“  Fortunately he found beans in the cupboard, and he was really good at making those!
