One day when I was on my way to Disney World I sat beside a big black shark. He was counting his teeth and I was watching him. Next, he took out a tooth brush and ate it. That's when I left him.
This is a Tall Tale by Angela. I know you will enjoy it!

One day I went to the pond. I fell asleep and when I woke up all the water was gone. I got up and saw a turkey eating ham for dinner. Then I went home.
Do you think you will ever see a turkey eating ham? Another Tall Tale. Brayden, you did a great job.

One morning I opened my copybook and got out a pencil. It started to grow and grow and grow. It looked at me and said, Let's write a gigantic pencil story." We did!
I am sure you got the point of Ciera's Tall Tale. You did a great job, Ciera.

One day after lunch I was told to pick out a treat. The treat was a cookie and it said, "Don't eat me, please." I don't want to die.
Well, Lauren I am sure your cookie was happy you chose not to eat it. What a cute Tall Tale.

One day I was at the park. I was playing all day. I got tired and I sat down on a bench. There was a big huge spider next to me. It crawled on my lap. I jumped up and ran home.
Wow! That is a scary Tall Tale, Lily. You did a great job.

When it was time for bed I got my slippers from the closet. I opened the closet door and a gummy bear was there. He was mighty big, red, friendly and funny looking. We read a Gummy Bear book together.
Now, how do you like Shane's Tall Tale? Good job, Shane.
