A Creative Writing lesson

A paper's story:

The story of my life by Page

Well, I was made from a Oak tree from Oklahoma. They sent my mom to a big factory in New York. I not made yet and was SOO excited that I was going to be made in NYC! When I was finally made, I found out that I had millions of brothers and sisters. Sadly I was separated from 300 of them, so it was just my sister, Pam, my brother, Poblo and me.


Finally, on May 15, 2010 we were shipped off to Nashville, TN!  It was so exciting. When we got there, we were put in a big machine called a printer. There were lots of other papers in there and they told us that we were going to get tattoos. That's when it happened. It was my turn to get a tattoo. “ Page are you going to be Ok?” asked Pam. 

“ Of course I will be! I’ll see you on the other side...” I said as I went on my journey.  I was so scared. There were so many loud noises and then I could finally see the light. There was a man, he picked me up and just stared at me. Then he just set me down on top of a bunch of other papers. That's when I saw it, the destroyer, also known as the shredder. 

When I realized that I was in line for the shredder, I was terrified. But then I heard someone yelling, “ What have you done!” Then he picked me up and said, “ This is a very important paper. Put him in the folder with the other good papers.”  The man then took me to what he called a folder and I reunited with Pam and Pablo!
