Chapter 2 - Snake Charmer
Skittle started to sulk. She didn't want that new boy Casper in her group. Why couldn't he go in that group over there with all the boys? She sighed."Well, class, can you remember what day it is?" the teacher exclaimed.
Skittle slumped down on the desk. She didn't want to know what day it was right now.
"It's zoo day!" the rest of the class yelled.
Skittle sat up straight when she heard that. Of course! It was zoo day! She'd been looking forward to this day for ages. Today was the day that some animal handlers would come into school with their pet animals, and let the children hold them and stroke them! Skittle loved animals.
Just then, a huge white van pulled up outside of the school. The animal handlers stepped out with cages with different animals inside them, and all of the children in the class ran to the window. They banged their fists on the window, and the animal handlers turned round and smiled at them.
Then the animal handlers all came into the classroom with their animals, carrying all sorts of equipment with them. The children ran to their seats and cheered.
"Thank you, children." one of the animal handlers said, pretending to bow and making everyone laugh.
"Now, are we all ready to see the animals?" another one of the handlers said.
"Okay then. Can anyone tell me what this animal is?" the first handler asked, picking a snake up out of a box.
Tara raised her hand.
"Is it a snake?"
"Well done, young lady! It is indeed a snake!" the second handler said, clapping.
"Now who wants to stroke the snake?" the first handler asked. A lot of the children hid under the chairs at the idea of stroking a snake.
"Me!" Casper practically yelled.
"Such a brave young man." the second handler said, and he handed Casper the snake.
Casper held the snake with great delight. But then Skittle noticed some skin starting to come off the snake.
"Um, Tara?" she asked, nervously poking her best friend.
But Tara was ignoring her. Before she knew it, Casper was covered in snake skin. The snake had obviously chosen to shed at a very bad time.
"Agh!" Casper yelled, noticing the snake skin.
The whole class started to laugh, then one of the handlers rushed over and got the snake skin off him. Casper then ran to the toilet in embarrassment.
And Skittle couldn't stop laughing.

But I don't think you've seen the wall post about what happened on the trip. It was absolutely horrible. The teacher brought 20 other people on the trip who hadn't done anything at all. On the way there in the coach, I was forced to sit in a spare seat in a cramped area next to the door, and everyone else got proper seats, even though I was the See More▼ only reason they were on the trip. I kept having panic attacks on the coach because I got really claustrophobic. And when we got there, the whole thing was just listening to authors talk about their books for three hours. It was so boring, and at the end of it, the teacher didn't even let us meet any authors. When someone asked the teacher if we were going to meet them, the teacher told them not to be stupid, even though it specifically said on the letter we were given that we got to meet all of the authors. And we got back to school just after lunch, when the teacher had said that the trip lasted all day.
I was so angry. . . :/
