1045 - CRAFT

This is my 9-year-old Granddaughter's version:

Timmy And Tommy weRe opening their new shop called the Nook's Cranny. It has a craft section, a food section, a book and exploration section and a stationery section. Tommy had just put a stark picture on the wall which showed Tom Nook, Timmy, Tommy, Dog Lover, L-J-A, Sahara, Mabel, Gulliver, Antonio, Katt and the airport guy. By the book section were CD's and DVD's too. There was Nooky and the tramp, The animal crossing king, Sleeping Isabelle and many more movies. Three new residents were joining and Dog Lover had the honour of choosing the new spots for the newcomers homes. Tommy was the greatest chef Palm Camp had ever seen. Timmy asked Tommy if he could grant his wish by making him blueberry pancakes. Timmy was the one who did most of the chattering. He was also the one to ask about simple information about Palm Camp. Blathers is the knowledgeable one but sometimes he gets a bit too carried away in reading old fairy tales and once, when Tom Nook went over to return a fossil, Blathers just blurted out, "No matter what you do, the bract and leaf drop will happen!". It was apparently from a nature book in the wildlife section of the museum.

This is my version:

One dAy, Colin was Taken aback at the sight befoRe him. It was a stark reminder of his former ways. A bedraggled scruffy tramp picking up bits of food fallen off the food stalls that caught his eye. Colin had been living a similar life, living as a homeless person, permanently cold except in the summer and often wet, never sure what life would throw at him next. But a chance encounter with a street pastor had started the process of change from that. The pastor had spotted that Colin had a supressed aptitude for gardening. Eventually the pastor and Colin's social worker had managed to obtain a grant for Colin to learn the trade of a professional gardener. Colin studied about all sorts of things like tree grafting, transplanting and the academic aspects such as knowing the names of various parts of a flower (petal, _bract, stamen, etc). Colin gradually became more reliable during this process and was rewarded with a qualification in the craft of professional gardener.
