Chives
Brendan Linden
Once on the west coast of Africa in the town of Namibia lived the family of the Morrisons. There was a young boy in the family named Chives. His family were going to take a flight to Miami, Florida for a cruise around the Caribbean. The Morrisons don’t have as much money as other do to do this trip. Amazing as it is, they won a contest on the radio for a free trip. All they had to answer was the capital of Argentina. Even though Chives wasn’t well educated, he new his capitals and he yelled BUENOS AIRES out loud. His parents were so proud of him and they were all so exited.
Chives had always dreamed of going on one the big cruise boats were there was lots of room for him. He was tired of being crammed in this tiny hut he called home. All there was in there was one window, three foam sheets as beds and a cardboard box with a radio on it. The tickets were mailed to him so he made sure that he wasn’t going to lose them. Chives was a very creative boy so he made a wallet out of bark from an oak.
