A LITTLE

NICE

ITALIAN

WITCH

Once upon a time there was a little Italian witch.The witch was very nice and her name was Wendy.

In the summer, when the sky was blue and the grass was green, Wendy liked goingon holiday through Europe. She took her broom and flew away!

One morning, it was the end of the summer. In the sky there were some clouds and the air was cool. Wendy saw some children playing in the sea with their boat.

” Hello children, my name is Wendy! I am a witch and I come from Italy.What are your names ? “ Wendy asked.

” My name is Paul , I am a boy and I live in … “( e.g. Slovenia)“My name is Sarah, I am a girl and I live in…” (e.g. Slovenia )

” Look children, this is an Italian flag ! Would you be my friends ?” Wendy asked“Oh yes I would ! “ Paul said.

”Oh yes of course “ Sarah said.Wendy was very happy , she had made two new friends and she said :” Come with me!”

“Where?” Paul and Sarah asked.

THAT IS MY

CASTLE!

“ To my castle in Turin ! I live there with my best friends :Miss Pumpkin and the Ghost’ s family. They are very nice.“ Where do you live, in a castle or in a house? the witch asked.

I live there with my best friends :Miss Pumpkin and the Ghost’ s family. They are very nice.

“ Where do you live, in a castle or in a house? the witch asked.

” We live in a house with our mum and dad. This is their photo!”

“MUM ! CAN WE GO WITH WENDY ? “

“YES YOU

CAN!”

“Come with me? “Wendy repeated.Paul asked to Sarah “Sarah, shall we go with Wendy?”

“We have to ask mum for permission,“ Sarah. said“Mum, can we go with Wendy? “

“Yes you can ! Wendy is a very nice witch

The three friends get on the broom and fly together but…….That day there was a strong wind. It blew away everything that was around: leaves,

paper, tickets and little stones. Paul and Sarah was scared.“Help, help!!” They cried!

“Wind, wind go away, go away” Wendy said and then she blew strongly at the wind“FFF-FFF!!UUU!! UUU!!!” The wind became scared and went away.

The three friends were safe.

“ HELP HELP!!! “

SARAH AND PAUL CRIED

“WIND , WIND GO AWAY, GO

AWAY”

While Wendy, Paul and Sarah were flying, they saw a lot of things Some fish were swimming in the Mediterranean sea.

Big cows were walking around the trees in the Alps Mountains

Some cats were sleeping near the flowers in Turin‘s fields.

While they were flying over Turin they saw a big tower.

“Oh Wendy, is that your castle?”“No it isn’t. That is The MOLE ANTONELLIANA. It is very tall and very important for my city.”

Wendy and her new friends arrived to the castle.The sun was going down and every thing was orange and red around the castle.

Wendy opened the door of the castle and said:“ Do come in. Do sit down on a chair.”

“ I’m very tired and hungry! I could eat a horse. Why don’t we go to eat?”“Oh yes .It’s a good idea!” the children answered.

“Wendy, what’s your favourite food?” Paul and Sarah asked.

“ I like eating brown spiders, green frog tails, wings of black bats and wolf fur. I also

like drinking magic potions: the purple one, the yellow one, the red one, but I don’t like the white, pink or grey ones,” the witch explained.

WENDY, WHAT‘S YOUR FAVOURITE

FOOD ?

“Yuk Wendy! those things are disgusting. Italian people like spaghetti, pizza, fruits,tomatoes, potatoes and chocolate….”

“But I’m a witch!!!!!!!!”“Wendy, could we have Italian food please?” Sarah and Paul asked.

“Yes you can.” the witch said.

After the dinner the three friends went to sleep. It was night, the moon was in the skyTomorrow is Halloween and Paul and Sarah are having a party at Wendy’s with her friends.
