Mandy's Short Story

SmartHome resident Mandy has been using the technology available to her at the Bob and Judy Charles SmartHome to write her own original stories for the Imagine! employee newsletter. Check out her latest work below!* Great job, Mandy!

Charlie is a very young boy. He really wanted a dog. The dog he wanted was a beagle. The dog was all white, and he had a black nose and long, black, floppy ears. Charlie found out that his friend Lucy had a dog, and it was going to have puppies. The dog had the babies, and Charlie wanted a dog so bad that his friend Lucy just gave him a puppy. Charlie decided to name his dog Snoopy, and Snoopy was very talented. He had a lot of talents. Even though he was a dog, he acted like he was a human. He and Charlie walked to a pumpkin patch, and then they took the pumpkins home and carved them. His dog did everything humans did. The dog was very cuddly. They baked cookies and went trick-or-treating. Snoopy and Charlie found an old building, and they made it into a haunted house.

Everyone found out about Charlie’s dog, and they wanted to see him because he was so talented. Charlie got him a red collar, and he engraved Charlie’s address and Snoopy’s name in it. Snoopy refused to wear it. Snoopy tried to hide it, but Charlie always found it.

When Charlie went to school, Snoopy would climb the fence. They bought Halloween costumes. Snoopy even ate human food even though it’s really bad for dogs. Charlie couldn’t stop him. Snoopy was even allowed to get in the swimming pool. Charlie even built him a doghouse. He wanted to be in school. He would wait on the lawn until Charlie got out of school.

Peppermint Patty took a sewing class and made outfits for Snoopy. They all had a Halloween party after that.
