When me and my sister  got to the gold rush there was a long line, so we waited and waited till we were first in line.

Holiday reading

The book that I am reading is Geronimo Sitltion Alien Escape. This book is all about a mouse that works for his grandfather and is the captain of the space ship MouseStar 1. Then one day Geronimo and his family that works for the Mouse star 1 had a massive problem with the aliens from another planet. The alien master where making other aliens shoot lots of big rocks onto their houses and destroying them. The alien master did get what he wanted the things he wanted where money cheese and the houses that where owned to the mice so he went over to Geronimo  planet and stole everything from the mice. The mice woke up in the morning and realised that all of their stuff is gone so they made complaints about what are stolen then straight away Geronimo knew that it was the alien master so Geronimo and his family went over to the alien master's planet and kindly asked him if he can kindly return all of the things he stole. But alien master just ignored it. So Geronimo said it is " it is no use we tried our best". So the next day Geronimo told him again if he can return the things but the alien master ignored it like always and just told the security guard if he can take Geronimo away. When Geronimo got back home there where lots of complaints but Geronimo didn't do anything. So the mice went over and told the alien master if they can have their stuff back but he just kept them in a cage. Geronimo went outside and realise that no one there. So he traveled over to the masters planet and saw the mice all in a cage so Geronimo went to the master and taught him a lesson by saying " stop being selfish and give the stuff back to the mice because half of the mice have mouse lets and they need to provide things to them so can u give the stuff back to the houses". So the master realised that he doesn't need everything. So the master took it back and built the houses back and the mice thanked the master and lend him some money and cheese just to say thanks and the mice lived happily ever after.  The end.
