Basketball Player
By John Moll
Age 12


Can any of yawl ball out there?  I didn't think so, but I certainly can because I think God gave me this gift and I think that gift is basketball because noone can ball better than Moll can.  See, it rhymes so it has to be my gift.  I picked this costume because you make a lot of money, which then equals to stretch Benz, big mansion, diamonds, one of my favorites of why I like this costume is that you get all of the fine and pretty women.  Because when you play as good as I do all the women will be all over you, just like they're all over me right now.  Then when I don't know what to do with my money anymore I will give a lot of it to charity.  That is what I like most about being a basketball player and that is that you help others that need help and you become a better man.

4th Grade Writings

Brother
Brother,
Black brother
gets hot
when I am on his nerves

Brother,
cold
when he walks home
from his bus stop

Sounds loud,
sounds hurt
sounds funny

Tastes like
me
and every other person
human flesh

Smells like
cologne

Feels
soft and bony

Looks like
a great brother to me!

Makes me a happy person


Feelings
I feel sad when my dad yells at me
and my mom yells at me.

I feel sad when my brother is mean,
and when my dad won't take me anywhere.

I feel angry when I have to go to band
and when I get a bad grade on a test.

I get nervous when I have a big test,
or a big basketball game,
or a big soccer game,
or a big bowling game.

I love when my dad goes out and buys me stuff.

I love when my mom and dad don't yell at me,
and when my dad takes me places.

I love when I don't have to go to band,
and when I get an A on a test.

I love when I win
my basketball game,
or soccer game,
or bowling game.


Every Day
Every day my brother
puts his underwear
on my head
and opens the door
so the dog can come in
and lick my face.

Every day I walk downstairs
to eat breakfast
and every boring day
I go to school,
but the only good thing
is that every now and then
I get an A in school.


School
There are only
three reasons
why I like
school.

First reason is
if I didn't go to school
I wouldn't have as many friends.

Second reason is
you wouldn't learn anything.

Third reason is
you wouldn't have
any time with your friends.


Match
My brother and a pair of socks
match
because they both stink.

Bill Clinton and my dog
match
because they're both sicko.

I match up with myself
because I am the coolest person in the world!
