"I get to wear an Ariel costume it is so great! We are rehearsing Part of your world. That is the best song because the crew is putting a harness on me and tying it to a rope and pulling me up so it looks like I’m swimming! Life is just great! I get to do eight performances!"

"I don’t usually read mermaid tales anymore, but whenever I go to school I see Bailey School Kids and I see the author that is you and I always tell my friends, “I talked to her!” And who is the other author that was on the Bailey School Kids book? Thanks! Talk to you later!"

"I had a concert in my backyard, but I was late to the concert. Everyone wa a trying to get in, and eventually I escaped into the backyard by driving a small cart into my backyard. I had to get ready. First, Lisa put my hair in a swimming cap. Then, I got rid of my shoes to put on crocs, then I got on a skirt. Lisa then put water on my eyelashes, then I put eraser on my lips to make them nice and dry. Then we found a sparkly outfit for me to wear. I put on my elf to turn into my alter ego, Janna Indiana. then put on a robe and walked to the stage, I took off the robe to reveal my sparkly outfit then performed. It was fun "

Suzy

"I didn’t really think of it as fan fiction. I was just trying to use some of your ideas because I liked them. Here is more: Chapter 2: The Nasty Designs On their way home on the bus, the 4 kids were telling Ricardo about Mrs. Transylvanian. “I had Focous Pocos in my pocket,” said Marko. “So I took picture while she was reading a book.” “See.” “Oh,” said Ricardo. “Yeah. Liza started a rumor that she was weird,“ said Haillie. “She’d probably would go crazy if we just opened our mouths,” chuckled Emily. When they got dropped off they saw Mrs. Transylvanian. “Hello,” she said. “Would you like to come to my house.” “Your house has to many scary designs,“ said Levi. "

Suzy

"I love your books! I wonder: Have you ever heard of a play with mermaids and is six chapters long? (not to be mean)"

"Here is my new book called the New Librarian. Chapter 1: Mrs. Transylvanian “Class,” said Mrs. Azrcy. “Time to go to library. Line order please.” “Bye,” she said as she left the library. Then, in front of them, was a woman with red eyes, a bat bracelet, & red hair. ”My name is Mrs. Transylvanian,“ she said in a very odd accent. A couple of the girls in the back of the room giggled at her accent. “Go to the back of the room,“ she said. “I don’t like school,“ Emily whispered. “I can’t believe you just said that,“ Haillie whispered back. “I love school.” “Shhh!” said Gabersi. When they arrived at the pit, Mrs.. Transylvanian picked up a globe & pointed to Europe. “I grew up in the country of Romania,” she said. “I live there until…until….” She paused. “Before my family was forced to leave!” “But why?” asked Rosy. “Ummm...That is not important now.” Liza cupped her hands around Lucy’s ear. She whispered: “She’s weird. Pass it down” Lucy whispered it to Haillie. Haillie whispered to Emily. Then all the girls got the message. “Ehem” said Mrs. Transylvanian. “Wow,” whispered Levi to Marko. “Yeah,” he whispered back. "

Suzy

"Hi! Today I was reading a Mermaid Tales book, and I wondered when your birthday was. So I decided to look it up, and turns out your birthday is only 4 days after mine! Sincerest: Juniper"

"Chapter 9: Marko’s injury Marko was taken to the hospital. He had lots of people very scared. He had broken both legs. Everyone he new was crowded around him including his parents & Ricardo. Marko was crying. “Ok,” said the doctor. “We’re going to put a cast on Marko’s body parts that are broken.” Do not be concerned. Everyone was quiet for a while in the waiting room. Everyone was worried about him, especially Ricardo. “Do you think he’ll be O.K.?” Gabersi asked shivering: “I don’t know,” shivered back Liza. Everyone was in the waiting shivering & talking about Marco. The doctors were scared. A half hour later, Marko came out looking exhausted. Everyone gasped. “What the heck did you do!” yelled Liza. “Mrs. Nalan,” said the doctor “give you son some rest when you get home give your son some rest. “At least they got rid of Mrs. Zombiet,” he thought. THE END"

"Chapter 8: Gasp! Run! Mrs. Zombiet became darker and her eyes became greener and bigger. All the students gasped, including the four kids around Mrs. Zombiet. Everyone ran around and screamed. Mrs. Zombiet decided to chase them. She almost bit Marko on the head, but Emily punched her. Emily punched her so hard she fell over. Marko sat on top her tummy. But Mrs. Zombiet threw Marko very high up. Marko hollered. Haillie, Gabersi, Levi, Emmett, Rosy & Lucy got the parachute and Marko landed safely on top of it. But then the parachute sank because of Marko’s heavy weight. Marko hit the ground very hard. Mrs. Azrcy came in. Mrs. Azrcy and the class looked shocked. "

Suzy

"Chapter 7: Try it out. “Who, hollo chogon,” said Mrs. Zombiet. Everyone watched the door as Mrs. Azrcy left the room. “Just wait for the right moment,” ordered Levi. “We play man from Mars,” said Zombiet. “Two questions askers are Gabersi and Rosy.” “Man from Mars, Man from Mars, will you chase us to the stars?“ chorused the whole class except for Emily, Gabersi, Haillie, Levi, Marko and Rosy. “If your last name begins with L., M, N, or P. Emily, Emett, Haillie, Levi, Liza, and Marko. Levi & the other 3 kids curved in the middle of the gym. Gabersi caught Emily and the rest. “Back to the start if you were tagged.,” said Mrs. Zombiet. This happened again. But the third time the number 4 put their hands on Mrs. Zombiet. Marko sat on top of her tummy. The other 3 crowded around her. Marko bounced on her tummy."

"here is another book I am writing: The kids return to Camp Stone Wolf, where last summer they suspected Mr. Kenkins was a werewolf. Camp Stone Wolf is in ill repair and Coach Kellison is taking them there for a week-long nature trip, ending with a rowing competition against the kids from nearby Weldon City. Their rowing instructor is a stocky man with a long black beard and bright pink sunglasses. His frizzy black hair is tied back in a ponytail with a purple bandanna and a silver earring dangles from his left ear. His name is Captain Peach and his parrot is named Long-Tongued Mack. They learn from another student named Marey that the Hailey Bank is going to take over the camp and sell it to the Mega-Mall Development Company. The kids think that it would be a shame to tear down all the trees in the camp. The kids race a pirate and search for pirate's treasure!"

Francine

"Here is another original book Giza, Teddie, Jelody, and Wowie (the Hailey School kids) find something in the old oak tree. They are disappointed when it turns out to be nothing more than a old bottle with nothing in it but a stinky smell. Teddie tosses the bottle into the junky yard next to the school while Jelody wishes someone would clean up the place. The next morning the junky yard is magically clean and even decorated with Christmas lights. They meet a big man with a shiny bald head. He rides a purple bicycle and his muscles bulge under his gold brocade vest and bright, flowing orange pants. He wears gold necklaces and one earring. His name is Gene and he is the one who has made the yard sparkle. Suddenly, all their wishes start coming true with horrible results. The kids are almost certain that Gene is a genie. The kids are disgusted with wishes and figure out that Giza is the only one with a wish left. Can Giza bring life back to normal at Hailey School or will the genie win control of Hailey City???"

Francine

"A new art teacher named Mrs. Fork comes to Hailey Elementary School. She is strangely pale, but gets more color to her as the colors start disappearing from Hailey Elementary, even Teddie’s red hair!"

Francine

"YOU ARE SUPER PRETTY"

Suzy

"Ignore the posts from earlier. Sue and her friends are being annoying. Anyway here is the next chapter: Chapter 6: The Plan The next day, they all met under the tree. “I saw 2 clouds form Mr. Jim twice this week!” exclaimed Emily. “Well I came up with a plan to get Mrs. Zombiet out of our school,” said Levi. “First we all jump rope with her. Then when she isn’t looking, we jump on top of her.” Er! Er! The bell rang. Everyone walked to their classrooms. A little after it was time for work, it was gym. Line Order as usual. “Come children,” said Mrs. Azrcy. “Got the plan,” whispered Levi. “Yes,” they responded. Also you are SO PRETTY "

"Those aren't retellings. Those are original stories by me. heres another: Giza, Teddie, Jelody, and Wowie (the Hailey School kids) go on a field trip to the Kelley Museum. The old museum is four stories tall and they are greeted by a grunting giant of a man named Hank, the curator’s assistant. Dr. Jictor, is the curator. Giza tells them about a book her brother read called Frankenstein and thinks that Hank is really Frankenstein the monster. No one believes Giza and then the lights go out during a storm. Their teacher is in danger and there is only one person who can save her... "

"Chapter 5: Magic Again, Emily was lying in her backyard & again, Mr. Jim’s ghost was walking towards her. Haillie was having a play date with her. “This again!” exclaimed Emily. Haillie froze as if she turned to ice. “I have to tell this again,” said Mr. Jim. “Go away,” said Emily. And he did. “Why can’t he just go again,” she said. “That’s his heaven ghost,” responded. When his ghost was gone, she had a question to ask him. “Mr. Jim!” she called. “Come back!” “Why do you want him to come to you,” asked Haillie. “Because I have a question to ask,” Emily answered. “I believe that’s not a heaven ghost. I think the clouds are shaping him & a person is making the voice.” They waited to see if she was right. “MAGIC CLOUDS!” hollered Emily. “They’re magic see, one shaped like Mr. Jim.” They both stared at it for 20 seconds. “Haillie, time to go!” her mother. “Mommy, Emily saw magic clouds.” I thought it was his heaven ghost for her, she thought."

"here is another story: It’s Saint Patrick’s Day and Teddie pinches Jelody because she isn’t wearing green. Mrs. Keepers doesn’t allow anything to do with leprechauns in the third grade room; she considers leprechauns worse than blood-sucking mosquitoes. Since Mrs. Keepers and her magical brooch won’t let him misbehave in class, Eddie decides to cut loose in gym class. But Coach Kellison, their wimpy PE teacher gives the class to a visiting teacher from Ireland, Mr. O’Brady. The short Irishman seems to have magic gem stones and likes Teddie’s pranks. Mr. O’Brady starts teaching them a dance, but ends up showing them a few tricks on the basketball court. Wowie’s grandmother is from Ireland and she tells them the true story of the wee folk, which is about a stolen fairy stone. The kids decide that Mr. O’Brady really is a leprechaun and he’s come to steal Mrs. Keepers brooch, which is the magical Fairy Stone! "

"Chapter 3: Risen from the Dead The next day at school, Levi, Haillie, & Marko met under a tree. “Where’s Emily?” asked Levi. “Oh, she’s in the graveyard,” said Haillie. And she was right. R.I.P. Austin Jim 1956-2011 Gym Teacher Jasudy Ater 1952-2003 R.I.P. FOSTER GRAND PARENT “Now if I could just find one with the last name Zombiet,” she said to her self. “I could prove she was a zombie.” And then she decided to go back to the tree and wait for the bell to ring. Then after school, Emily was sitting under a tree in her backyard. Then she saw a light in the clouds. And a body. It looked like Mr. Jim’s. “C’mon Emily, get some exercise,” it said. “What the nuts!” Emily screamed. “You’re a zombie, Mr. Jim!” she yelled. “I’m just in heaven,” he said. “Zombie, Zombie, risen from the dead. I’ll break off your head,” Emily yelled. “Bye,” yelled Mr. Jim."
