The 29th house

It was Wednesday the 16th of May, and there were about 30 houses in this street. At the 29th house, people wondered, did someone live there or was it just a house? No one knew.

Two boys lived in the same neighbourhood and they wanted to find out if someone lived there. They both decided to knock on the door.

The house had a long driveway and it wasn’t very clean, but the boys said, “lets go and knock on the door”.

So they did, they knocked on the door and… the door opened. A really nice lady came out and said “hey boys ,how are you?”

“We’re good,” said the boys. ” We just wanted to invite you to dinner”.

The lady said that she would love to come.

  1. What a lovely story, Polly. I was sure it was going to be much more sinister than it was. I like the way you build the tension. You have included some good description; the long driveway and the fact that the hose was not very clean. All in all, a very nice story,
