How the Jack-o-Lantern Got Its Smile

Doobee was a high school girl who enjoyed adventure very much. Once at night she escaped from her house, hoping to find something interesting. She went along the street in the darkness, but she didn’t fear at all. She walked and walked, ran and ran. She even didn’t know she had used how much time. At last she found a farmland growing pumpkins. As she thought that Halloween was coming soon, she immediately tried to pull out the biggest pumpkin and wanted to take it home. Anyway she couldn’t pull it out. She tried so hard, but the pumpkin was still in the soil although she was much taller and heavier than the pumpkin. She suddenly felt afraid because she had heard some scary stories about the ghost told by her parents on Halloween. As she thought about the stories, she saw every pumpkin spring up and had a big smile. “Ahhhhhhhh!” She screamed. “ What’s wrong?” Doobee opened her eyes. That’s her mom. She realized that she had been dreaming. “Nothing,” she said. “Happy Halloween!” Her mother said. That day was October 31, the Halloween. Then she found a big smiling pumpkin on her desk.
