The Storm In Jilliann's Room

One little girl goes on an adventure on trying to make the storm go away outside!

     Jilliann was playing in her room because it was storming outside.  She was playing with her doll house, and her barbies laid close by.  Jilliann's mommy came to her door and exclaimed, "It looks like a storm has hit your room!"

 

     "No mommy, the storm is outside, not in my room,"  she said feeling confused.

 

     "Jilliann," her mommy said.  "You know what I'm talking about,  make the storm go away!" she finished sternly.

 

     Jilliann didn't know what to do.  she didn't like her mommy to be upset with her.  Mommy must want to play outside and can't because of the storm, Jilliann thought to herself.  "But how can I make It go away?" She asked herself.

 

     Jilliann walked to the window, and began to sing:

 

"Rain, rain, go away.

Come again some other day.

Little Jilliann's mommy wants to play.

Rain, rain, go away.

 

     Jilliann decided that she was tired of playing with her dolls and doll house.  She found her wooden blocks and built a huge tower.  When she put the last block on it fell to the floor.  The blocks went in all directions.

 

     Then she decided to play with her tea set.  She was going to have a tea party and invite all her stuffed animals.  It was going to be a big party because she had a lot of animals.

 

     Jilliann's mommy came back to her room.  "Jilliann, the storm is still here, I thought I told you to make it go away."

 

     "I tried mommy, It's not ready to leave yet," Jilliann replied.

 

     "Jilliann, I mean get rid of the storm now!"  Mommy shouted.

 

     "I'll try again, mommy," Jilliann cried.

 

     Jilliann walked back to the window and began to sing:

 

"Rain,rain, go away.

Come again some other day.

Little Jilliann"s mommy wants to play.

Rain, rain, go away."

 

          Jilliann decided to play with her dress up clothes.  She opened her small chest and threw all her dresses and fancy shoes all around her.  She dressed up like cinderella.  she danced around the room pretending that she was dancing with her prince.

 

     She was having so much fun she didn't hear her door open.  "Why is this storm still here?" Mommy asked.

 

     Jilliann stopped and looked at her mommy like she was crazy.  "Mommy, I don't know."

 

     "Well, figure it out," mommy said.  "I want it gone when I come back." Then she left.

 

 

      Jillian walked back to the window yet again  and song:

 

Rain, rain, please, pretty please go away.

Little Jilliann's mommy wants to play.

Rain, rain, go away.

 

     Jilliann looked around her room, feeling tired of playing with her toys.  They looked tired too!  She first put all her dolls in their proper beds.  "Night night," said Jilliann.

 

     She then picked up all her stuffed animals and placed them on her bed.  "Night, night," she said.

 

     Jilliann looked around her room.  She picked up all her blocks, throwing them into the big brown box.  She peered inside.  "So long blocks time to rest."  She picked up all her dress clothes and shoes and stuffed them back into her chest.  "Good-bye for now," Jilliann whispered.  "See you later."

 

     Jilliann was looking at a book when her mommy came back into her room.  "Jilliann."  Her mommy smiled.  "You made the storm go away!"

 

     Jilliann ran to the window.  The sun was shining brightly.  "I sure did,"  said Jilliann.  "Let's go out and play."

It's a very well written write. Set up well too.
The detail and imagery was wonderful.
You stayed with the plot and not stirred away from it.
Most writers who say they are writers generally get
off the subject. You did wonderful.
Enjoyed!!!
