  The World Is Lost and Returned
Noah (age 8) of Oregon, 8/9/2016
Wumps are like tiny Moose. They eat grass and moss. They have their own little perfect world. But, one day, a space ships came with tractors and people from a different world. They made this world have cars, all sorts of buildings, factories and smoke. There was no grass for the Wumps and the rivers were full of sewer. They had nothing to eat and drink and they had to hide in a log. One day, it got so smoggy, the people packed up and left. Finally, it cleared up, the grass grew, the water started to get better and that was the happy end.
