Once there was a girl named Emma. She had to do science project for school. She could not think of anything. So she asked her friend Hannah. Hannah said “just do tigers that’s your fav of all animals”. “Thanks Hannah” said Emma. “I can’t do tigers” ”Sophie is already doing tigers” Emma said to herself. Then a teacher walked by and said “ why not do Japan”? “Japan is too hard “said Emma. Just then a voice said “do penguins, do penguins”!!! “I’ll do penguins”! Emma said. Then she researched the topic and found out that the dad takes care of the egg while the mom just eats. And that penguins mostly waddle around and eat. She researched some more and got a lot of info to write down for the project. Then she was able to complete the project. One week later she won the Awesome Writer Award. “I’m so happy to win this award said Emma. “And I would like to thank Hannah, and my teacher for helping me win this award. The End!!!
