Reading

 

It was eight o’clock in the evening.  While my friend Daniel and I were walking through the park, we were talking and laughing. Suddenly the sky went very dark.  We felt surprised and looked up into the sky.  Daniel said, “It’s going to rain.”  Then we heard a loud bang and the sky went bright green.  There was a huge spaceship above our heads.   We thought we were dreaming.  It was shining, but several creatures were looking at us.  They all had wrinkled skin and hands.  They were smiling at us.  We felt scared, but they came close and wanted to shake hands with us.    

I was shaking when they tried to walk toward us.  Daniel cried out and shouted, “Run, Peter! Run away from them!”  We were so scared that we ran home as fast as we could.

The next day, we read the news in the paper.  Several people saw the spaceship in the sky that night, too.  Though it was unbelievable, the incident really happened.
