Nick lived in Auckland with his mum and dad. Nick had two brothers called Joe and John. They were the same age. They were born in 1895. Nick had brown eyes and has spiky hair. He was tall. Joe had flat hair and he was fast. John had curly hair. Nick, Joe and John all went to Grey Lynn School. Nick was in room 11 and Joe was in room 15 and John was in room 16. Then these people came to their house. They said, “You three have to come to fight in Italy.” The mum and the dad said “NO!” but they said “Yes!” It was three against two so the mum said, “Yes, okay.” The man said, “Let’s go boys. We need to get you in shape and get you in army clothes.” They got in shape. They were skinny. The plane came to get the army people. They fought in Italy and France. Two brothers came back alive but one didn’t. It was Joe. They had a funeral and it was really sad for his twin brother John. They went to visit his brother every day at the cemetery he was only 20 years old.

ReplyDeleteAWESOME sene the work you have put on our slid show is really good(:
ReplyDeleteHi Sene, what a sad story. I guess they brought Joe back from war, because they were able to visit him in the cemetary. I wonder what happened to the army boys that died but weren't able to be brought home?
ReplyDeleteAwesome work Sene what a great narritive.
