My Life as a Toad

I bet you think my life is exiting, right? Wrong! My life is dull, and when it is not I’m about to get stepped on, run over or otherwise beat to death in some fashion! Because, if you haven’t noticed, I’m ugly! People literally hate me! Ok, yes I know little boys don’t, but that’s only because their moms do.  You would never believe the ways people have tried to kill me! Like, this one lady took a broom out and started hitting me with it! As I go through my day to day life, I can’t help but think of all the wrong which has been done to me.  One time I got so angry at a little boy who kept picking me up, that I jumped in his hair!   It was hilarious! I was laughing at that one for weeks.  Right now, I live in this really horrible pond.   The beetles are always bugging me, and that is only one of the reasons that I’m leaving! I heard the city has wonderfully clean ponds that have water springing up from the middle!  And people are much nicer there I heard!  It sounds so much better than here!  It’s been about thirty minutes of hopping now and I’m getting tired. But, the city’s in sight so I think I can make it!  I finally got to the city. It’s not as pretty as I thought it was going to be, but I’m sure every thing else is better than the other place!  Then I saw the pond! It was kind of small, and water was not springing up out of it. But, I’m sure the people must be nicer here! Then, I saw a crowd of people; I got up close to the people to see how they would react, and they started to stomp at me! Everything here is awful and I hate it. Now, back home sounds warm and cozy.  I’m so sorry I left! But, I’m going back right now, and I’m never leaving home again! 

The End
