11. Retelling 1 (owl) From the day Abel has been carried away from Amanda during the hurrcain he has been trying to get off this island. The next day he tried to get of the island but this massive river is in his way. Abel has found log to live in so he has shelter to cover him up. He gotten used to the island and is now colleting berries and making blankets out of grass. But he has just found out that I am here, the owl. I swooped down from the sky and snacthed Abel up as fast as lighting. I take up in to the sky but he does not give he slashes my talon and I drop him he does survive the fall but go up in a tree and wait for the right moment to strike but Abel is giving smack talk but I strike once again and he slashes me again and then makes a run for his log and spends the rest of the night in there. Winter is coming now so there is no chance of me getting mouse for supper but I have been flying around and see and hear that Abel is scurring to find food in his home. Now this is spring and a drought has happened and the river has gone down so I see that Abel has now started to cross the river and now has gotten across and is looking back at the island, and is about to get a sweet surprise.

12. Retelling 2 by the Star Hi I am Abel’s star he has been trying to get off the island since the hurricane carried him off on to this island. He talk to me the star at night and I just stay here up inn the sky till day comes so when I’m away at night I can watch Abel. Some of the adventures Abel has had during the night are one when he fought the owl I was laughing my heart out it was hilarious how he would give smack talk to the owl I just couldn’t stop laughing . The next one I remember was when he out smarted the cat. Abel must be one smart mouse because he tricked a cat to fall out of the tree. That was funny. But what I don’t get is when Abel got to the park and saw Amanda he didn’t run to give her a hug or something he just walked home making sure that he was in the shadows and when got home he just lay there on the couch till his beloved Amanda had got home from the park.

13. Retelling 3 by scarf Hi I’mthe scarf I will be telling you about Abel’s adventures on this island. Well let’s get one thing straight Abel’s is kind of stupid because he had to save me when I blew off Amanda’s neck. The hurricane was not a fun and games amusement park ride it was a terrifying cold wet death trap I’m am Abel saved me from the hurricane and got stuck on the island on this island he made one new friend that he might not ever see again and he got a heavy weight championship belt from fighting bigger animals(owl and cat). When Abel saw that the river was low and it was just starting to rain Abel knew it was now or never. So he crossed the river. When he got to his town and saw Amanda he didn’t run up to give Amanda a hug Abel just went home put me on a table, and lay on the couch till Amanda got home.
