the world of manners by rose (read aloud books .txt) 📖

Living a hard life is terrible, just you think having a son that has no manners would be easy to teach to have good manners, but mine, my little boy, Jack which is 10 years old, can’t leave his bad manner. The day came that Jack needed to learn some proper manners. Sunny and a little bit cold was the day grumpy Jack decided to go for a walk.
The boy was not at all good at telling the weather, so he couldn’t tell if it was winter, spring, summer or authem. While walking he got bored and started talking to himself, but in the middle of chatting he heard a scream then a little girl voice shouting mummy. Jack would haved just walked away and forget all about the screaming but something in the girl tone of voice made him want to investigate more.


Running and shouting at the same time, Jack finally got to were the little girl was just in time to see her mother drown. Without no thinking Jack jumped into the lake and went down to the very bottom of the lake to see a small, round and gorgeous lady lying down with both eyes closed. Quick as lighten Jack got hold of one of the lady hands and started to swim up as fast as he could. Very dizzy Jack pulled the lady up to surface and fell to the floor. After a while Jack woke up to see he was in a strange room with a orange wall, and the thing that made Jack know that he wasn’t in his own house with his mum lavender perfume making the whole house smell nice, was how small and pinkish the bed was.

In the middle of looking around, a little chow wow wow dog strolled in unexpectedly with the girl from the lake at his back. “I really want to thank you for saving my mother from drowning.”
“Yeah what ever” replied Jack rudely.
At that moment the small round lady Jack saved from the lake, came rushing in. “well that’s not a proper way to answer my daughter after thanking you from saving me her mum.”
And I don’t care!” shouted Jake. With an angry face he stomped out the bedroom and ran up the stairs, to were the front door was and left the house with a big bang coming from the door.

Later on that day, Jack decided to do part of his homework because he was very bored and had nothing to do. While trying to figure out what twenty pulse five-thousand-nine-hundred and eighty-eight was, he saw a suspicious looking box right at the corner of his bedroom and went to check it out.
He steered at the stripe {brown and black} box. Jake took a look at the door making sure his mum wasn’t going to burst through the door and tell him it’s bad to open such strange box that wasn’t there before. He opened the box slowly and to his surprise, it was empty but then suddenly, there was a blast of light, so bright that Jack would have got blinded if he hadn’t closed his eyes. After a while Jack felt a bit of tingle in his body as if an ant was climbing up his body, then all of a sudden, he was zapped into the box......

“Ahhhhhh” screamed Jack as a terrible, ugly and scary monster climbed up his belly.
“That’s my dog! His name is oblong do you like it?
“Well yes kind of.” Replied Jack
“I like you lad but it’s sad to say that I’ve got be on my way now”
“Well you better go now and bye “said Jack with a big smile. He was very happy because for once somebody actually liked him. The confused boy walked around the town square until he found a woman that looked actually like his mother. “May I help you please”, asked the lady.
“Were on earth am I?” asked Jack.
“Where is your manners young man?”
“I don’t care Just tell me were am I!” shouted jack.
Guards get this unpleasant boy out of here please!”

SLAM! Jack woke up to find him self in a small cage. Nooooooooooooo, he shouted but the guards paid no attention to him. The lady that called the guards came in again and told Jack she would let him go bake to his home if he only said sorry.
“Sorry” said Jack.
“Do you know your manners?” asked the lady.
“Well no”
“When somebody says hello you say hello”
“When somebody gives you a gift or something you say thank you and when you say please people will like you more”
“Thank you very much”, replied Jack and with that he was back in his own cosy house with his mum lavender perfume, making the house smell better.

From that day on Jack learnt that having manners could sometimes get him what he wanted and also make people like him more. So that’s how my little Jack got his manners.
