Barry was Different. He was Brushing his teeth getting ready for school? His sister Stacey always called him Mr Stinky. he always gets upset when she calls him that.



So one morning Barry came down for Breakfast and there were no Pancakes left. So I said mum Stacey ate all the Pancakes. she said Stacey cook more Pancakes for your brother now' and stop being so mean." 



I was just eating my Breakfast when the school bus Arrived and I said come on I haven't even got dressed yet. This is all your fault Stacey now I am going to be late for school.





But mum said look Barry I will take you to school in the car. But he said " mum you know I hate the car and we always end up getting stuck in a traffic jam and I don't want to get stuck in traffic explained Barry.

but his mum said 'There are no traffic jams  the roads are all clear I am sure it will be fine and you will still get to school on time because it doesn't open till 09:00 and if is 7:55 so we have ages until the school opens to fit the day.

I   Barry Arrived on time for school and he said thanks mum now I will be the first one in the school building before the school bus arrives 

And  he really enjoys being in the school first  because he can do so much stuff  in the school. So I try and sneak quietly in the school building because it’s 1942 and the war was happening and I was scared because I didn’t want a bomb to fall on the  school, so the bus arrives I told the students not to come in.

but of course they are boys and they never listen to anything that you say. So instead the headteacher said (PLEASE HEAD TO THE SHELTER NOW)  we have to evacuate  the school.

so I ring mum told her about the bombs abd she said don’t worry Barry  you will be fine
