Araiti narrative writing

There is a kid named John and he is 4 years old with black hair and white skin. He is short but he has one brother who he doesn’t know the name of and he has one parent because his mum died from a heart attack and his dad is in jail for robbery. He now he has foster parents who love and cares about him.

One time he missed his parents badly  he was crying in the middle of the night he wanted to go live with them and wished that they were back so then he changed his mind about living with his foster parents  at the middle of the night so  he climbed out the window and  ran off and lived by himself in the jungle.

He was tired from running because when the foster parents found out they told the police to look for him. His foster parents told the police what he looks like and then when the got the information they needed then they went off for the lookout for John.

John was 4 years old so he didn't know what to do so he passed out in the middle of the jungle. Then He got saved from a bunch of monkeys. As the years went by the monkeys that taught him how to climb away from danger and they also  taught him how to get bananas out of very high trees.

John lived off bananas and fruits. Sometimes he would get sick of bananas so he would climb up the tree and get different fruits like apples, peaches, nectarines and all that. But his favourite food was bananas.

As the years went by the monkeys taught him how to speak monkey language. But they started to get old and die out so he was left on his own. But when the monkeys was almost about to die but he said thank you in monkey language just before they were gonna die.

After a while lumberjacks started to come in and chop all the trees because there was just too much. First there was one then there was 2 and then a whole heap of them came and just started to cut all the wood.

But one time John was climbing a tree so high the lumberjacks came down and chopped it. So there was John scared as a cat chasing a mouse. But when the tree was falling he was scared that he thought he would of died but  when he was falling he passed out instead. But then the next day the lumberjack that had chopped the tree found him lying on the ground so then the lumberjack thought he would tell the police that a boy was just left on the ground. But the when the police found out his name and his identity then they rang his foster parents and said “is this your son”.

The foster parents said “it is not our son it is our foster son”. So then after the foster parents took him to the hospital so he can recover. But then the next morning when he woke up he was shocked to see his foster parents.

“He said thank you for taking me to the hospital”. And then after he got out of hospital they lived happily ever after.
