Dinosaurs and Pink Pomegranates
by Marie Hynds"One Tuesday morning Peter and Shamim and six other children went with Miss Bird to catch the bus to the park. They were all carrying paper bags with sandwiches in them. Miss Bird had two large bottles of lemonade and some paper cups in her bag. Shamim felt rather sick on the bus, but a drink of fizzy lemonade made her feel better. When they got to the park, Miss Bird took them to the lake first. As the children walked round the lake they could see an island in the middle with huge stone dinosaurs standing on it. Peter and Shamim stared hard at each one. They felt very small beside them."
