An Apple A Day
Damien Graves
Horror
pgs. 1-37


Tim Barnett was a boy who had a question that if a person could melt if the sun was too hot. And as he looked to the sky he always sweat from his face. And three days ago he had arrived to his Grandmother's farm but he was not so happy there. His Grandpa had died seven years earlier when Tim was just four and Tim's dad said to Tim's Grandma that she could live with them in their home but the grandmadid not want to go their house because the farm was the house where she was raised. Then Tim and his family moved near the grandma so she would not be alone. Then Tim met his new neighbors and they were not as friendly as he think. And than he saw the neghbor's perfect orchard and he wanted an apple from it. but then the neighbor saw Tim trying to cross over the fence to get an apple and then he got his shotgun and tried to shot Tim but he missed him but Tim feel over the neighbor's house and then the man was chasing him all over the place. That how far i had read.

I think Tim should not get into other people's property but the neighbor should not try to chase him with a shotgun. this is a very good story because it puts alot of suspense because the man tried to shot him and istead of Tim going to his house and called the police because the neighbor had a gun he fell over the fence into the neighbor house and then he chased him all over his house.

I still have a question why wouldnt Tim just asked for an apple nicely and the man would just give it to him.?
