The Tale of Max

This is a story I wrote in second year at Creative Writing Society, when the task was writing for children!

It’s a silly story about an elephant, it’s been fully illustrated and can be viewed here:

Now this is the tale of an elephant named Max,
Who one day decided to send out a fax!
A fax is like email, but you have to use paper,
So settle down and listen to this heart-warming caper!

So Max left his house and he walked down the road,
But he hadn’t gone far, when he met his friend Toad!

“So where are you going?” The Toad asked our Max,
“I’m going,” Max told him, “To send off a fax!”
“A fax?” Toad exclaimed, “Why not send a letter?”
“Because,” Max explained, “A fax is much better!”

So Max kept on walking, along down the street,
And soon he discovered, a Mouse at his feet!

“Good Day!” Said the Mouse, “Where are you off to Max?”
“I’m going,” Max told Mouse, “To send off a fax!”
“To fax?” The Mouse cried, “Is email not good?”
“It may be,” Max muttered, “But I never would!”

So Max kept on walking and left Mouse behind,
The thought of his faxing was filling his mind!

Soon Max reached his office, and found the machine,
But the machine was all dusty, so he gave it a clean!
He wrote out in his fax, in a clear memorandum,
Then he sent out his fax, to people at random!

If you think this story, was funny and good,
It wasn’t, the last verse doesn’t rhyme!
