#50PreciousWords Contest

Art by Vicky Fang

Time for another contest! I submitted my entry last night before the deadline for Vivian Kirkfield's #50PreciousWords contest. The premise is (not so) simple: Write a story for kids in 50 words or less. Here is my go at the challenge. Check out my entry and the 758 others on Vivian's blog!

IT HAS POCKETS
41 Words
By Kirsten Leestma

“I like your dress!”
“It has pockets!”
“What for?”
“Treasure.”

A smooth stone.
A fancy feather.
A poky pinecone.

“Room for more?”
“Plenty.”
"Let's go!"

A large leaf.
A tiny tulip.
A copper coin.

“How about now?”
“Oh no! A hole!”
