Synopsis
CHAPTER 1 A VERY BORING HOLIDAY Joel was back
to school after the holidays. His new teacher
wanted the class to write about their holidays.
Everyone shared their exciting holiday adventure.
Joel felt sad that he had the most boring
holiday ever. All of his classmates set off to
write at least a page about their holiday,
leaving Joel wondering.
CHAPTER 2 MAKING IT UP Joels teacher
approached him and asked him about his holiday.
Joel repeatedly told his teacher that he did not
do anything fun during the holidays but his
teacher persistently encouraged him saying that
he can write an essay, he can even make it up and
she walked away. Thats when Joel decided that
maybe he can actually come up with an interesting
piece. He then started recalling all the
activities he did during the holidays with his
sister, Natalie and his grandmother.
8Synopsis
CHAPTER 3 SOMETHING WEIRD HAPPENS Although his
teacher was happy with his work, Joel felt sad
and wished that his holiday was indeed as
exciting as he pictured it in his essay. Joels
teacher again asked her students to prepare
another write up about a pet they would like to
have. Joel ran out of idea as he had used up all
his imagination for his previous work. He kept
his homework away and did not think about it.
During the weekend, on Saturday, Joel, his mother
and his sister, Natalie went to the shops and
library. They entered the library and saw a
crowd of people. Joel saw his favourite author,
Anastasia Olivetti, just like in his imagination.
The author recognized Joel and thanked him for
his idea.
CHAPTER 4 MORE WEIRD THINGS HAPPEN After the
library, they headed to Mr. Gelatis ice-cream
shop. To his surprise, the shop was crowded with
customers. Mr. Gelati saw Joel and ran toward
him and acknowledged him as the inventor of his
new ice-cream, Joels Jelly Baby Freeze. Again,
just like in his imagination. Joels mother
brought them to the pizza shack. The manager of
Pizza Shack welcomes Joel and his family to the
shop as Joel is the winner of the
pizza-for-a-year. They enjoyed the pizza. When
he went home, he thought about what happened
earlier. He realized that it all started when he
told his teacher he had nothing to write about.
Joels mother reminded him to finish up his
homework. Joels started on his homework and he
imagined. He imagined having a horse.or a
crocodile.or even a dinasour.
