How Do You Write a Letter Now?

One day in the little house with the long legs down by the creek...

Moon Girl wanted to write a letter. However she didn't have any nice paper so she went to the newsagency to buy a pretty writing set. She looked near the diaries, but there weren't any there. She looked near the notebooks, but there weren't any there either. She looked near the invitations and pretty printing paper but there were still no writing sets. She asked the lady who ran the store who directed her back to the notebooks again. Moon Girl decided this shop wasn't right, so she went to the Australia Post Shop. She thought they would definitely have a writing set, but alas she had no luck there either. So she bought a packet of ten stamps and left.

The Night Visitor

One day in the little house with the long legs down by the creek... there was a loud noise in the middle of the night. Moon Girl opened her eyes in bed and stared into the darkness above her listening intently. She was trying to determine if the noises were an intruder and waited to hear any footsteps. There were no footsteps but a rummaging scratchy noise made her curious. So she slipped out of bed and crept into the kitchen to the back door.

How high's the water Mama?

One day in the little house with the long legs down by the creek...

the little old lady who lived next door to Moon Girl went to see how high the water was. It had recently flooded and so the little old lady and the little old man had become a little obsessed with checking how high the water was.
This particular day Moon Girl was having her morning tea on the back deck when she heard a loud SPLASH!
She looked up to see the little old lady walking back up the path. Her hair was all wet and she had hurt her arm too. The poor thing had fallen into the creek.

Although she was concerned that the little old lady was all right, Moon Girl couldn't help but giggle to herself just a little bit.
