HOLLY's WORRY #3

I wish she was wicked.

That sounds daft. Mr Speed will think I’m seriously weird. Mind you, Mr Speed is a little bit weird himself. He’s speedy like his name. He whizzes up and down the school corridors, he dodges around the desks in the classroom, and he skips across the playground. He really DID skip once when Claire brought a skipping rope to school. He could all fancy footwork too– but then he tripped and fell over and said a very RUDE word. He’s not a bit like the other teachers.

This worry website was all his idea. It’s instead of the Circle time. You know, when you all sit in a circle, fidgeting, and you meant to discuss your problems. Sometimes it’s dead boring because someone like Samantha bangs on about her dad. Everyone felt sorry for Samantha because she’s so little and pretty with long fair hair. Even Mr Speed has a special smiley way of looking at her that makes me felt sick.

HOLLY's WORRY #2

I minded so because it belonged to our mum’s when she was a little girl. Snow White’s mother died when she was born so she got this stepmother who looked lovely that her magic mirror said she was the fairest of them all. But she was evil and mean and dead jealous when the mirror said Snow White was the fairest of them all now, so the stepmother tried to have her chopped into bits and then she poisoned her with an apple and she fell dead down and was kept in a glass coffin until a handsome prince came by (yawn!) and brought her back to life. The wicked stepmother was so maddened that she boiled with rage and her shoes stayed red hot that she couldn’t take them off and she had to dance until she died.

She must have had awful blisters. I’ve got one where my old trainers are rubbing. Dad doesn’t always get it together when we need new shoes. It’s not his fault that he’s so busy. Yes it is. I’m not making any more excuses for Dad any more. I can’t stick him now. I especially can’t stick HER. I’m going to add to my worry.

HOLLY’S WORRY #1

Type in your worry:
I think I’m going to get a stepmother.

There are lots of stepmothers in my favourite book of fairy tales. Don’t go “Yuck, boring!” Fairy Tales are seriously cool, much scarier than any X-rated video you’ve secretly watched at a sleepover. Snow White’s stepmother is the scariest of all.       

She doesn’t look scary. She looks beautiful in the picture in my book– though her long queen robes are spoilt because Hannah tried to colour them with a purple wax crayon. I was FURIOUS. I felt like snapping the book shut and smacking Hannah round the head with it, even though she’s still little and didn’t mean to spoil the picture.
