A New Slug in School

Ms. Emma's class is nervous about a new classmate.

Ms. Emma’s class at Gastropoda Elementary started like any other day, then news started to spread,

“There’s a new slug in school, a new slug in school!”

“What’s his name? Where’s he from? What’s he like?”

 

“Well,” said Know-It-All-Barbara, “I hear he is the meanest slug of all.”
“No way.” Yes way. How mean is he?”

 

“Well,” said Bonita Melita, “His name is slugger and that is exactly what he’ll do to you.”
“No way.” Yes way. How mean is he?”

 

“Well,” said Queen Charlene, “He will slurp up your lunch and do a double burp.”
“No way.” Yes way. How mean is he?”

 

“Well,” said Sabrina the Dreamer, “He’ll slime you every chance he gets.”
“No way.” Yes way. How mean is he?”

 

“Well,” said Super Man Stan, “He will bulge his tentacles out so far, he’ll knock you down.”
“No way.” Yes way. How mean is he?”

 

“Well,” said Rhyming Yi-Ling, “His tail is like a whip and he’ll use it to make you trip.”
“No way.” Yes way. How mean is he?”

 

Suddenly the classroom door opened and in walked the biggest, scariest slug you’ve ever seen. “Class,” said Miss Emma, “Welcome your new friend Junior.”

 

Behind the big slug entered a little slug with a backpack and he said, “Hello everyone, this is my dad and he’s brought bananas for everyone!”

 

“Ewwww! Yuck! Terrible! Boo!” everyone protested.

 

Junior’s Dad said in a big booming voice, “Well of course, ROTTEN bananas!”

 

“Yay!” everyone yelled, “Junior! Junior! Junior!”

 

Junior’s dad passed out the rotten bananas and everyone enjoyed meeting their nice, new friend.
