Mr. Linden’s Library

By Paul Shubat

I was going to my uncle’s house this weekend. I was excited because I hadn't been there in a few years. My mom called up from the kitchen, "Are you all done packing?" “Yeah, I'm almost done." When I last went to my uncle's house I was ten. Now I'm thirteen and I can't quite remember what it was like, so I'm very excited. My mom started getting worried about me and I told her “Mom, I'm thirteen, I can take care of myself."

When we got there, He led us into his mansion, and served me dinner after my mom left, for dessert we had ice-cream. He had all kinds in his walk in freezer. Afterwards, we watched Iron Man, and had pop-corn. Afterwards, we went to his library. His library contained 2,000 books. He got me a book, I read the synopsis and loved it, so I started reading it. Before I left the library, I looked through some of the books, when I got to a certain shelf he said, “This shelf is restricted.” , I said, “Okay” , but after I went to bed I went to the library, got a book from the shelf, and started reading it in bed, it was called Dewie’s Adventure, I fell asleep after starting it. Suddenly I felt something on my arm, opening my eyes, I saw vines growing out of the book, then Dewie ran in and ripped the vines off me. He told me never to take a book without asking. Afterwards we destroyed it.
