The hot air balloon
Cleverly, Alice steered herself around the big birds that were partying in the air. She was petrified as she hung on to dear life. In a remarkable speed, Alice was floating down, down where she would crash and meet her fate. Then quite suddenly, her sharp eyes caught a glimpse of something golden in the rural environment. Alice thought for a moment and rounded her way to the golden patch. She had a feeling it was a field of soft growing rice. There were shouts and screams from her parents who were high up in the helicopter above her. She couldn’t make out anything. The bitterly cold wind stung her face as she heads down the mysterious patch. She was hoping that there was a farmer there who could help her. Alice was frightened. Here it goes she thought to herself. She knew that the houses below her were far too dangerous to go. Alice zoomed down to the golden rice field - or what she thought was a rice field. Crash!! The farmer and his wife came running out of the farmhouse. They didn’t care about the ruined rice, they just comforted the little girl. The farmer's wife - Mrs Makreedies, gave Alice a glass of warm milk and cookies while the farmer, who knew Alice’s parents quite well, telephoned them and told them Alice was safe. So that’s what Alice’s birthday was like, and from then on she never went on a hot air balloon again.
