Viking Adventure

I read “Viking Adventure” today. I will tell you about this story.

Wilf and Wilma came to the door. It was time to go to school. Kipper told everyone about his adventure at the Teddy Bear’s picnic. But nobody believed him. Biff, Chip and Wilf were in Mr Johnson’s class. The children liked Mr Johnson. He made everything interesting and he told lots good stories. Mr Johnson had a model ship. He asked whether you can tell me what sort od ship this is. Wilf put up his hand. He said that it is a Viking ship. Mr Johnson said that well done. Mr Johnson showed the children a picture of a Viking ship. He said that this ship was called a long ship. It had oars and a sail and it moved very fast though the water. Mr Johnson said that the Viking lived a long time ago. They crossed the sea in ships like this. My Johnson showed the children a Viking helmet and a Viking shield. Mr Johnson helped the children with a Viking project. It was very interesting. They made model long ships and they made Viking shields and helmets. Mr Johnson took the children into the school hall. They made a big long ship. Then they all dressed up as Viking and pretended to row it. Biff said that it is hard work being a Viking. The children came home from school. They looked at the magic key. They wanted it to glow because it had not glowed for a long time. Kipper told them about his magic adventure but still nobody believed him. Kipper was upset. He thought that the magic key glowed in the night. It glowed when it was dark. It did, it did, and it did! Biff looked the key. Biff had good idea. Maybe the key will glow in the dark. She got a touch and then she found a big thick blanket. The children sat on the floor and they pulled the blanket over themselves. It was dark under the blanket. Suddenly, the key began to glow. The magic was working after all. There was no wide. The Viking rowed the long ship across the sea. Every man pulled on the oars. It was hard work being a Viking. Suddenly, the wide began to blow. “Hooray!” said the Viking. “Now we can put up the sail. The wind can blow the ship along and we won’t have to work so hard.” One of the Vikings heard a noise. He went to look. He found the children. The children are surprised because they are on the Viking long ship. They don’t believe it. The Viking jumped back. He couldn’t believe it, either! He looked very fierce. Kipper thought that the Viking doesn’t look pleased to see us. The Viking pushed the children to the back of the long ship. The wind began to blow harder. The Viking put up the sail. The wind blew harder and the ship tossed up and down. The waves splashed over the children. They got cold and wet. Kipper began to feel sick. He thought that it is not much fun on s long ship. At last the long ship landed. They jumped into the water and carried boxes and barrels to the shore. The children looked over the side of the long ship. Kipper hopes we don’t have to jump in. It looks cold and wet. The children waded to the shore. The villagers were amazed. They had never seen children like these before. Kipper had some sweets. He shared them with the Viking children. They had never seen sweets before. They didn’t know what to do with them. The Viking took the children into a long fall. A fire was burning in the middle of the floor. There was smoke everywhere. It began to get dark and soon it was time to have some food. As soon as it was dark a long ship sailed close to the shore. On the long ship were some Viking raiders. They were going to attack the village. One of the villagers saw the long ship and ran into the long hall. The raiders looked very fierce. They ran towards the village. They are going to attack. Biff had an idea. She shone her torch. The raiders and the villagers had never seen a light like this before. They were frightened and they all fell to the ground. The raiders ran back to their long ship and sailed away. They won’t come back here in a hurry. The Viking looked at Biff’s torch. It frightened them, but it frightened the raiders even more and it saved them village. The villagers lit a big fire on the beach. They had a party for the children. They gave Biff a shield. Biff wanted to give the torch to the Vikings but Wilf told her not to. The magic key began to glow. It was time for the adventure to end. Biff showed the Viking shield to Mr Johnson. Mr Johnson said “It is very good, but Viking shields didn’t look like this.” Biff looked at Wilf and smiled.

This story is unique. It is very interesting story. If I see the Viking, I will be surprised very much. The key is great. I want to have it. They would experience good and fun. I want to it. It looks like very fun. This story is little long, but it is easy to read. I was addicted to this story. I read again and again. I want you to read this book.
