Story Spotlight – The Blue Boy by Sadie
“I got the blues, baby!” once a little boy sang all day long.
He was very sad ‘cause he didn’t like his name. It was Blue Boy. He had a super power which was to sting anyone possible, but it was really hard ‘cause he just had to lie there waiting for a human to touch him.
But one day a baby came over, and dumped its sand castle on him. He got very angry and turned into a red boy. He turned massive and threw the baby in the ocean, but the lifeguard was always there for a rescue.
So, they leaped up and swam. Until they got bitten by his blue bottle.
“Good boy, Blue Bottle!” he shouted.
The Wee Woo put him in jail for no reason at all!
“He only threw a baby and made my dog bite a lifeguard,” he said politely.
“That’s a lot of paperwork to do,” croaked the Wee Woo.
To be honest, the lifeguard should be called ‘ruinguard’.
“Not a happy ending!”
