902 - SHARP

In many A River, lake and even in ponds there are likely to be roach. You might not see them of course as they will tend to scram when they see you. They will also swim away if they see a fresh water shark - they don't want to encounter their sharp teeth!

My granddaughter (aged 9) was keen to have a go at writing a story, so today there's a bonus story:

One dAy in a River a roach was swimming slowly with its 24 other cousins. They didn't know it, but they had reached the end of the fresh river water so they kept swimming. After 20 mins in the sea a shark spotted them. One of the cousins saw something shiny and sharp reflecting in the sunshine. After a closer look he realised it was a shark and told everybody to scram. And now there are 21 cousins altogether.
