Suess Goose (story by Evan)

This is a story about Suess Goose and his "migration vacation."



One cold autumn day in Canada, there lived a goose. His name was Goose Suess. Suess for short. He was going to migrate in two days because it was getting colder every day.
On the day of the migration, it was exactly 32 F, freezing point. It was so cold the grass was frosted and white. Suess and his friends were about to leave when, "BOOM!" a rumble of thunder came. "Uh-oh," thought Suess. "We better get out of here before we get struck by lightning!"
Suess and his friends zoomed through the air. Then, lightning struck! It was exactly one mile away and Suess could feel its heat. "Go, go, go!" he shouted. Next it started pouring rain.
Finally, the geese made it to Minnesota, where they would stop for a snack. They stopped at Lake Minnetonka to catch some bass. When they were done eating, they flew off. Their next destination was Mexico.
They made it to Mexico City the next morning. They were very tired, so they stopped at Embageese Suites to rest. When Suess woke up, it was 7:00 a.m. in the morning. "Rise and shine!" he said. His friends barely woke up. "We have a long day ahead of us," said Suess.
They were at the beach in record time, swimming in their swim trunks and having lots of fun. They swam and tanned and were flying back home in an hour. By the time they reached Minnesota again they were sweating like donkeys. They got a drink, had a snack, and before they knew it they were home.
