There was once a boat that was very special to an 

old man that owned it he always would get up and 

make it shine by sweeping the dirt and washing it 

every day he would always sail away with it to 

wherever he wanted to go even if it was just a mile 

away.People always laughed at him if he took the 

boat somewhere he could just walk to but he never took 

any notice.

one day when the sun was shining and the sea was 

calm lots of the old man's friends came and told 

him that the children where on there summer 

holiday and wanted to go on holiday to a little 

island that they could see but couldn't see clearly 

all they could see was the trees and the sand that 

sparkles at night."they have always wanted to go 

there but we just say that it is to far away but they 

wouldn't stop asking so we promised them that we 

would take them in the holidays" said one of them 

as he looked at the boat.

"we were wondering if you could take them to the 

island"said another.

"Well i could take them but i would like to see the 

island first to see if it is to far"he replied

He took his telescope and put his eyes on it he 

turned it from left to right then he saw it it was 

fascinating he had also wanted to go to that island 

but just never got up to the point to go to it he 

took his eye of it and said"i'd be honored to take 

the children to the island"

The friends were relived because if they didn't 

take the kids it would be a promise broken!!!!!

The old man got the children and set sail and 

after a while they arrived 

When they got back they were really happy 

even the old man.
