Today I had to read at least three non-fiction articles/stories in a school journal. My favourite story that I read was called The Plum Tree. It was about a group of kids that are scared of a lady that lived on the corner of their street and they called the lady a witch. She had a plum tree and the kids would have competitions on who could get the most plums before getting yelled at. It was two of the girls' turn and they were in the tree and the lady came out, the lady let them carve their names into the tree, the lady said it reminded her of her mokopuna and asked them to get some plums for her. Ever since then the girls are allowed to go up whenever but not their friends.
