Story of two brave friends Kimi and miwok

Story of two brave friends

He was a little eskimo boy. He was a small but awfully brave. He was inseparable from miwok, a grey eyed husky dog.

The two friends were afraid of nothing and nobody will stop. Well, except perhaps beers.

In fact, they were terrified of bears!

Luckily, they didn't meet bears all that often, and the bears in their land were quite friendly.

Now, the champions race took place every year on the first day of spring.

it was a sled dog race and any young girl or boy from the village could take part in it. And this year he was going to participate for the very first time.

He was so excited-and so was miwok!

But how will we defeat the bigger children? He wondered.

Come on, Kimi, you are so brave! His little sisters sakari reassured him.

"And if someone is brave, then nothing is impossible!"

Finally, the big day arrived! All the participants in the race had to begin at old yabo's Igloo , go through the forest and finish up in the village.

    Everyone set off. kimi and miwok were smaller than the other races who were big, strong and fast, and they were soon left behind.

And then sakari had an idea. She knew How to help for brother! She disguised herself as a polar bear and ran into the forest, waiting for me me and miwok to pass.

When she saw them approaching, the little eskimo girl jumped out from behind the tree, stood write in their path and roared.

How scared tini Kimi and miwok felt! The bear seemed gigantic and terrible. Kimi and miwok were so terrified that they shot off like rocket, sliding and leaping across the snow. They soon to call the other participants without even realising it.

Finally, panting, with their heart racing and legs shaking like jelly, our two heroes cross the finish line, for our head of all the other racers! they were the grand champions of the champions race!

Ever since then, everyone has heard about Kimi and miwok's astonishing race against to the polar bear, because kimi narrates the tale to anyone who will listen.

   "We were afraid the beer would attack the village, and so we chased it and it fled at top speed!"

and each time he tells the story, The bear is larger and more terrifying and Kimi becomes even more heroic.

The moon

The moon has a face like the clock in the hall;

She shines on thieves on the garden wall,

On streets and Fields and Herbour quays,

And birdies as sleep in the fox of the trees.

The spelling cat and the squeaking mouse,

The howling dog by the door of the house,

The bat that lies in bed at noon,

All love to be out by the light of the moon.

But all of the things that belong to the day 

Cuddle to sleep to be out of her way,

And flowers and children close their eyes

Still up in the morning the sun shall rise.
