Story Spotlight – The Bubbles by Freya and Elva
A.
“I can hear Danny saying he needs a bath,” whispers Mr Bubbles.
“Ooowww,” says Baby Bubbles.
“What was that?”
“Oh no, it’s Mr Yellow Ducky again,” Miss Bubbles whispers.
“Quack!”
“My ears!” cries Baby Bubbles, “aaaahhhh! Where am I?” screams Baby Bubbles.
“Darling, I’m coming!” Mummy Bubbles yells as she jumps in Ducky’s mouth.
“Ooooowwwww! My ears, my ears! I’m flying,” laughs Baby Bubbles as she plonks into the water. Just as all of the bubbles think Danny is asleep, Danny walks in and rips out the plug.
“Ahhhh! Where are we?” suddenly they are going down, but unexpectedly they freeze as a big tsunami comes rushing up the pipe.
“We’re flying,” they cry as they jump into the bath, but just as they think they are home, they are flying into their soap bottle.
B.
“I need a bath,” I say, plopping my rubber ducky in the bath. The yellow ducky went “quack!” I run straight out the door to go sulk to Mummy. As I ran, I could hear the Bubbles laughing at me.
“I accidentally, hic, ate Baby, hic, Bubbles, hic, hic, hic, Mummy Bub-hic-bles. Don’t, hic, jumpin’, hic, kagkagkagkag! Oh finally, all the Bubbles got out.”
All the Bubbles cry out, “hurray for baby Bubbles,” as she plonks into the water.
Just as Ducky thinks Danny is asleep, Danny walks in and rips out the plug.
“Arrrr,” screams all the Bubbles. They were all going down the plug! I swim over and land in the plug. All of a sudden, a big, fascinating tsunami comes screaming up the plug. I go flying up out of the bath. All the Bubbles are back. I plop back into the bath and make all the bubbles go back into the soap bottle.
