VICTORIA By Paige

Once upon a time, a long time ago there lived a man called Charlie-Ray and his wife Paris. Charlie-Ray wore a black t-shirt and a black pants. Paris wore a white t-shirt and white pants. They lived in an old house. The house was black and it was very, very old. They were very, very poor. They had no food and they wanted a baby.


One day Paris was very hungry and she asked Charlie-Ray to get some fruit from the witch’s garden. Charlie-Ray said “No because she might catch me!” Paris said, “Just go!” And so he did and the witch did catch him! The witch said, “What are you doing here?” “I need to get some fruit for my wife,” said Charlie-Ray. “You can have some fruit,” said the witch, “as long as you give me your baby when she is born.”

The next day Paris had a baby. They named her Victoria. But Charlie-Ray and Paris forgot to pay the hospital and so the doctors cursed her to have long arms. Charlie-Ray remembered his promise and gave his daughter to the witch. The witch made Victoria use her long arms to steal stuff. She would say - “Victoria, Victoria! Use your long arms to steal that!”

One day a policeman saw Victoria stealing stuff with the witch and he followed them to the witch’s castle. When the witch went out to find something for Victoria to steal, the policeman went to talk to the Victoria. The policeman told Victoria to stop stealing stuff but Victoria said, “I can’t because my arms are too long.” The policeman said, “I can take you to a generous witch who will take your curse away.”

Victoria agreed and the generous witch took the curse away. Victoria moved into her own house and became a policewoman with the policeman. They lived happily ever after.
