One morning I dashed out of my treehouse and I heard lots of birds that were chirping and frogs croaking. Suddenly I slammed my feet to a stop. In the rainforest I saw lots of huge trees and a huge green tree snake. Quickly I ran back to my treehouse and the green tree snake climbed up the huge tree. From my treehouse I yelled, “help me. Someone help me.” Nobody came to me. As my hands were shaking the snake was getting closer to me. I was looking for a stick and I didn’t find a stick. But I kept looking for one very spiky stick. On the floor I found a stick at last. I picked it up and poked the snake with it. As fast as a lion the snake went down the huge tree and went home. So I went for a nice run in the rainforest. It was getting dark so I went home to my bed and went to sleep with my teddy bear.
