Time for another writing contest! This one challenges participants to write a complete children’s story in 50 words or less! The mastermind behind this event is Vivian Kirkfield (check out her blog here). Trying to write such a short story has really helped me flex my revision muscles and helped me focus on making each word count! You can read my story below! 👇 😊

Mama Roo
By Lindsey Hobson
Word count: 50
One day, Rooster decided to hatch an egg.
He tried to lay his own.
Out popped…
A poo.
He tried to adopt, instead.
But Henny chased him away.
Then, he spied an egg, all alone.
Roo sat…
and sat…
and sat…
Finally, CRACK!
Out popped…
a baby crocodile?!
Uh-oh!
Mama??

Love it, Lindsey! Always cheering for you, my friend!! 🥰 🐔 🐊
