My story starts in a little brown house with six little people in is Mrs. pepper, Ebenezer, Mary, Joel, Davie, and Sophronia. Just sitting down Mrs. pepper was sowing and so was Polly Ebenezer was telling Joel and Davie a story and phronsie was playing with her little rag doll. Then after a while phronsie wanted to go outside for some nice fresh air.  When she got outside she found a little monkey so she followed it and it went right into a big nasty man then a little while latter Polly thought that phronsie should come inside but when she went outside phronsie was no where to be found so she looked and looked and finally she found her laying down on the grass so Polly went down to the house to let phronsie sleep. A few months later it was Christmas time we were making lot so of things. finally the day came and it was the best Christmas they had ever had!
