The Christmas Attack- by Julian, age 7

Once, years ago, there were Vikings and the people of England had to keep on giving them gold for them to stay away. The English wanted to stop giving them gold.

It was Christmas day, and the English didn't fight in the winter, especially not when it was Christmas, but the Vikings came on Christmas day and attacked!

The English king, Alfred, had to flee! He worked in a lady's house like a servant, but she didn't know who he was. She told him to watch the cakes on the fire while she went to get firewood. He was concentrating on what he would do about the Vikings so much that the cakes burned!

He decided to send messages to all his warriors to plant their crops and then come to headquarters.

So then, they attacked the Vikings and the Vikings were surprised! The Vikings surrendered and then the English won!

THE END.
