(Super Special) The Retirement

Hi. My name is Frank. You have heard all my 1st grade stories. In this book I am in kindergarten and I am 5 and a half years old. Now it is time to hear the story. "I have some some bad news." said our teacher, Mr. Johnson. "I am retiring." "Aw, man." said the class. "But don't worry." said Mr. Johnson. "You will still have school and we may see each other always." This gave the class a "Hooray!'' Mr. Johnson had gave them a poem for the retirement cards:
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
You are retiring,
We will miss you.
Signed,
Your name here

"Can we make our own poems?'' asked Aron Marcini. "Nope." said Mr. Johnson. "Do we have to use stencils? asked Melvin Sneedly. "Of course." replied Mr. Johnson. "Can we make our butterflies purple?'' asked Fred Weasly. "Uh-uh" said the teacher. So everyone wrote the poem, being sure to use their name, while me and my best friend made both a retirement cards and a World Car comic (My tree house was built during the first day of Grade K). When Mr. Johnson saw the comic, he was very impressed. "Frank and Andy," he said. "You have a wild imagination." During recess their was a retirement party with fun and free ice cream (our favorite flavor and Mr. Johnson's "Top 5' flavors). At the end of the school year we were happily
carrying our yearbooks and said "See you later Mr. Johnson! Hope you have a happy retirment!" and drove our buggys home.

Chapter 1: Frank and Andy

This is Frank and Andy. Frank is the car on the left with the pencil, Andy is the one on the right with the comic, Remember that now.

Now, Andy loved to draw, and Frank loved to make up stories. And they spent a lot of time making their best comic book ever: Super kid, Power boy, The Bionic Van 4000 and World Car!

When Frank and Andy were finished with a comic, they put up signs around the neighborhood for cars all around the town to buy or subscribe their comic books.

Chapter 2: www.treehousecomix.org

Frank and Andy also made a website called www.treehousecomix.org. Now here is the story of Boost, Snot Rod, Wingo and DJ. See Chapter 3.

Chapter 3: The Bad Guys

This is Boost, Snot Rod, Wingo and DJ. Boost and Snot Rod are the first two cars on the left. Wingo and DJ are the last two cars on the right. Remember that now. These four villians are evil. So Whatever they do, you should fight back!

Chapter 4: A Horrible Sight

Meanwhile, at Car's Diner, Andy was making pizzas when he saw a horrible sight. He told Frank the entire thing.

"What!?" Yelled Frank. "The characters in our comic has came to life!? Andy!"
"Auuuggh!" Screamed Andy.
"We've got to do something!" Quickly, without another word, he sped away.

The two friends followed the four bad guys as fast as they could.

How I lost my first tooth

-- this is one of Andrew's school work --

I have never lost a tooth but one day I might. How I might loose a tooth is proably the time when I will trip over Mudge, or when I eat healthy food. By the day my tooth falls out, I might hide under my pillows, and then the tooth fairy will come and examine it. Nobody knows where the tooth fairy lives, how the tooth fairy gets to your house, and how she knows where you live! Because no one knows for sure, but then...They will find out!

I don't know when I will lose it, but I will lose my tooth pretty soon, then the crown thing on my tooth will fall off. When I am 12 years old, I will have permanent teeth, which is teeth that are different from baby theeth. How different? Well, they don't fall off, which is how it got its name, and they don't go loose, or wiggle. But when I grow up, things change. How do they change? Well, I will have 30 teeth, instead! And my face looks different!

World Car and the Atacck of the Talking Fuel Cans

Once there was a town called Car Island. One day a UFO zapped a nearby fuel cafe in Car Island. (UFO zap) It made all the fuel cans alive. The fuel cans were hungry. TALKING FUEL CANS: Yum, yum, eat' em up! So they slurped up the store owner.
STORE OWNER: Help!
The talking fuel cans marched over to a nearby elementary school.
TALKING FUEL CANS:Da-da da! But the children were not happy. CHILDREN: Help! The talking fuel cans just ate all the lunch by slurping it through their straws! PRINCIPAL: This looks like a job for... CHILDREN: World Car!
WORLD CAR: What seems to be the problem, kids? CHILDREN: Help! Its the talking fuel cans!
World Car knew he could use his extra-strength, but the UFO opened up... (UFO hatch clicks open)
And out came the terrible Turbo Fuel Can 2000.
TURBO FUEL CAN 2000: I'll slurp you!
The Turbo Fuel Can 2000 chased World Car... but World Car was faster than a speeding race car... more powerful than wrestlers... and able to fly above tall buildings without even running out of gas. Finally the Amazing World Car pressed a button on his "Utility Keyboard''. And out came the Turbo Laser Shaft 4000. One of the Turbo Lasers zapped the Turbo Fuel Can 2000 and the UFO. The UFO blew up and all the fuel cans were back to normal. They headed back to the fuel cafe and never bothered anyone again.
CHILDREN: Hooray for World Car!

A Day of Hard Work

Hi. My name is Frank. Today me and Andy didn't go to the park, or play in my tree house, because today was a hard working day. And so we didn't have time to play. Benny the tow truck had to tow an old car to the towing center. Jeremy the jet had to take some cars to Piqua, Ohio.Also Franklin the train had to take cargo to the bay. Me and my friends had to open up Fred's new bookstore, The Weasly Books, and then had to work for Chicken Licken (starting up up the All New All-You-Can-Eat Chick-o-Licken Buffet), starting lemonade and smoothie stands, making food for the Car's Diner Senior Citizens All-You-Can-Eat Early Bird Special, then company's. Then we wrote some comics and sent them to The Weasly Books, and it was time to relax.

The New Tree House

Hi. My name is Frank. I am so excited. You know why? Because my parents are building me a new tree house! Well, my dad will build the tree house, that is. Well, I would have a new place to play (well, hey bub, throw in a playground). Luckily, I added a few materials to go with the tree house: a pantry full of our favorite foods (friends and family) and paper for drawing and writing. 5 days later, me and my friends had a new place to go. Mostly we would go to the park, sometimes playing in the tree house, writing books and comics, drawing transportation, heroes, villians, super creeps, space, and writing journals and math. Sometimes the entire family can come into the tree house, or just myself.

The Dune Buggy Race is Coming (2)

On the big day of the big race, I was nervous to win. I could beat Fred and Melvin (who signed up for the race). "On your mark, get set, go!" said the announcer. T ch-ch-ch, our buggy's started their engines... and off they went."A bright sunny day at Car Island Racing Stadium. There are 3 buggy's, but which one will win?We've got a colossal Frank Fargo at 378 mph, our fast know-it-all champion, Fred Weasly, at a blast of 263 mph, and our dumb nerd racer, Melvin Sneedly, at a speed of 72 mph. "Hey, don't call me a dumb nerd!" said Melvin. He liked it when everybody called him Mr. Potato Head. "Lap 62." said the announcer. " Frank is almost speeding to his pit crew. He's almost ready for Lap 63. Fred is speeding 306 mph. Looks like he's catching up with Frank. "I guess Melvin is going at an additional 15 mph. He needs gas for his buggy. Frank's buggy is the coolest one of all. A model rocket! "I think Frank is going to win "The Racing Cup"!"Okay. Lap 495. This is a 600 lap race. Frank's buggy is almost running out of gas, he has a blast of 61 mph. Fred has the speed of 25 mph and Melvin is at 1 mph, he is running out of gas. Now at Lap 496. Everyone has their buggy filled with fuel: 492 mph, 406 mph, 102 mph. Its going to be great, and fun!" At lap 597, I was going 612 mph. I was happy for that of course, because I was almost at pit crew. I won the Racing Cup!

The Dune Buggy Race Is Coming (1)

Hi. My name is Frank. I can't believe the "Dune Buggy Race" is coming soon! So me and Andy drove over to my Grandpa Ed Fargo's workshop. ''We got a buggy to build! said Grandpa Ed when he saw me. Then he handed me lists of stuff to make the buggy. And our schedule was:3:05 Find buggy parts at Farmer McColl's farm3:32 Find buggy parts at Moss Lake Pier (the beach)4:00 Find buggy parts at Mike's Construction4:45 Find buggy parts at Joe's Junkyard Crushing Old CarsWe collected 5 license plates, 4 flip flops, 1 ship porthole, 2 windows, etc. After acar-crushing, buggy-collecting day, we put all the parts into Grandpa Ed's Buggy-a-Tron 2000.A computerized voice said:Machine operating in 5 seconds.Machine operating in 4 seconds.Machine operating in 3 seconds.Machine operating in 2 seconds.Machine operating in 1 second.Blazzzzzt!
