My grandson is on his way to becoming the next author in the family. Check the skinny on this story!




My 10-year-old grandson, Jadon Price, is on his way to becoming the next author in the family. Check out the skinny on this story:

HOW THE FOOTBALL WAS MADE

Once upon a time, two boys were born at a California hospital. It took ten days for both of them to be born. It wasn’t easy to have a baby in the 1800s. Most babies would die and nobody knew why? Matt and J.T. Pucker were very unordinary twins. They were both ten feet tall. The doctor had a hard time with the delivery. Susan, Matt and J.T. mother was by herself while having the babies. Her husband was fixing there house to make it fit for 10 feet tall babies.

A few years later they started to walk. If you haven’t experienced an earthquake before well, you couldn’t say that again. Hawaii was getting tsunamis like crazy. They kept falling which cracked the earth. That’s how the San Andres fault was created. On their third birthday they both got shotguns. A few days later they went hunting. They came upon a heard of pigs. J.T. shot the the first pig right in the heart. Matt jumped out and also shot a pig in the neck. They both gave each other a high seven. They threw the pigs over their shoulders and headed home. With two five foot pigs.

Later, when they got home they skinned the pigs and started to grill the bacon. They wondered what to do with the skins. They had no idea what to do with them. They thought of playing a game with the skins. J.T. picked up the skin and cut a quarter of it off. Then he threw the skin in the air. It turned “ovalish” in the air. They were amazed! Matt went to go get some string, and tied it to the pig skin in its “ovalish” shape. Nobody had seen such thing before. Matt threw the skin up again. The pig skin hit J.T. foot and popped back up in his hands. They decided to call it a football. First of all it hit J.T.s foot. Second, “well he kind of just made the ball part up”.
