Hello guys! I wasn’t sure which page to put this on, but I am writing a book. Like, its 60 pages so far… but its about dinosaurs. Its called, The Lands of Skiouro. It features two girls stranded on an island inhabited by all kinds of dinosaurs. They fight for survival, and meet some friends on the way. Im very excited and I would like to publish it when it finishes. Heres a bit of it….

“Goodnight Emma.” Mumbled Sarah from her bed to her half asleep sister. Their tranquil room with a warm glowing night-light seemed to make everything better. Slowly Sarah drifted off to sleep and hugged her blankets close absorbing the comfort and heat.

A slow peaceful snore drifted through the woods and soon Sarah couldn’t take it. “EMMA. SLEEP. NOW. PLEASE.” She rolled over to scowl at her, but she saw was a mossy tree root protruding from the earth and diving again, hiding back into the ground and she trembled foot to toe with fear. She flipped over on the rigid ground and to her relief a sleeping figure of her sister lay there. “Emma!” She scrambled onto her feet and shook her rapidly. “Yeesh, ok ok, what is-“ Her eyes widened and her mouth hung open as she stared incredulously at the thick canopy of trees obstructing the sunlight trying to squirm through.

“Sarah, now say it slow, where are we.” Emma said with her serious tone. “I have no idea! I thought you would know, like it was some prank from Mom and Dad!” Emma dismissed the forest around them and said “Hm, I dunno Sarah, this doesn’t look like a prank!” “YOUR the older sister! YOU should know what to do!” Squeaked Sarah, a tear sliding down her cheek and her face flushed red. SQUAWK! SQUAWK! “Did you hear that?” Asked Emma completely turning from the problem, alert to the strange sounds. “Oh no- its totally gonna eat us! EMMA SHIELD ME-“ “Wait Sarah, its just a chicken..” Emma said her tension blown away. “YOU CAN CALL ME CHICKEN BUT ILL BE LAUGHING WHEN YOUR IN ITS STOMACH!” Yelled Sarah averting her eyes and hunched behind a tree. Emma gasped and her body shook No, No, this is going to be some hilarious joke and its gonna be some video Mom and Dad laugh about years after- it cant be… “A dodo bird.” Breathed Emma astonished. “Sarah- this place just got ten times weirder.”

So uhm, thank-you for reading this little bit of it, I may post more every once in a while. Wish me luck ;)
