Just Juniper

This is a birthday story for my mum. Her favourite character is Juniper Moss so this story is JUST about JUNIPER. This is a day in the life of Juniper Moss. My mum's birthday is the tenth of December and all her Christmas and birthday gifts from me are Sylvanian!

"Good morning honey," said a voice. It was Juniper's mum.

 

Juniper used all her strength to pull herself out of her bed. She'd had a lovely sleep.

"Good morning Buck," said Juniper as she sat down at the breakfast table. "Morning," replied Buck, yawning. "Your father will be away all day. He's very busy at the pizza parlour with all these Christmas orders and deliveries. I have the day off," sighed Rowena. For breakfast, Buck and Juniper had bread with jam and a mug of warm milk.

 

Juniper and Buck got dressed for school. "Bye bye children! Oh..and don't forget to buy some milk from Mr Webster!" waved Rowena.

Juniper noticed the blue cart of Mr Webster, but, Mr Webster wasn't pushing it. "Hello Mr Buttercup, may I ask where Mr Webster is?" asked Juniper.

"He's away selling milk at the winter circus. He'll be back soon though," replied Hornbull. "I would like a medium sized bottle of milk please," said Juniper. "Here you go," he said, handing her the bottle. "Bye Mr Hornbull," called Juniper.

 When the two arrived in the school playground, Juniper went rushing over to some friends to have a chat.

"Time for school," said Aristotle Treefellow, ringing the bell.

Everybody sat down in their seats. "Good morning class," said Aristotle. "Good morning Mr Treefellow," chimed the class.

This morning we are learning about times tables," said Aristotle, hopping onto a stool so he could reach the board. Aristotle is smaller than his pupils!! Aristotle went through all the times tables, asking the pupils the answers.

 During playtime, Juniper and Buck played on the swings. Juniper loves swings.

Then it was science. Juniper had to write things down in her jotter. Science was not Juniper's strongest point.

When the lunch bell rang, Juniper sighed a sigh of relief to herself.

When she was lining up for lunch, her best friend, Frances Robinson, joined the line behind her. "Oh, look! It's stew for lunch today!" squealed Frances.

 

"I love stew!" cheered Juniper. "I would like vegetable stew, please," said Juniper. "Here you go Juniper, have a nice day!" said Mrs Patches the dinner lady.

Juniper sat with Frances and they had lunch together.

Then the two played a game of 'hide and seek'. Can you spot Juniper in this picture? Tell me in the comments where she's hiding.

 

After lunch Aristotle announced that the class would be going on a nature lesson in the conservatory. Juniper cheered.

She loved nature! Frances was her partner. They loved the smell of the flowers. 

"Doo-ni-pa an buk!" squealed Charlie and Bonnie Moss. Rowena laughed. "Here's the milk mum," said Juniper, handing the bottle to her. "Thank you darling, I'll show you what that was for later," she said mysteriously. 

Buck and Juniper sat down to have dinner. Juniper had a croissant and Buck had a burger.

Then Rowena came in carrying a massive berry meringue cake and put it on the table. "Tuck in! This is what the milk was for!" laughed Rowena. "I needed it to make the topping!"

 After everybody had a slice of the delicious cake, Juniper went straight to bed. "Night night mummy," said Juniper, softly. "Night night dear," replied Rowena.
