The kangaroo in the zoo
It was morning in the zoo. And the kangaroo drank a bit of water, walked around and saw the first people in the zoo. The people walked first to him and gave him some food.
That was an advantage. But he forgot that he had had some breakfast. He stuffed himself.
Now he wasn't hungry. Suddenly he saw his breakfast. What a disaster! And he didn't understand.

The animal run
There were a kangaroo and an elephant. They wanted to see who was the fastest. The kangaroo had a great advantage, because he made great jumps. The race started and they ran to the end of the road. But what a disaster, the elephant injured himself and walked to the end of the road. By the end the elephant drank some water. The kangaroo saw and understood him and he said: ”Tomorrow is the real run.”

A dream
Last week, I was in my room. I did homework. But then I forgot my kangaroo! He had to eat and drink something. I walked to my kangaroo. But I forgot that he was a disaster.
That was not an advantage. When I came closer, I saw something horrible! I didn't understand, but he had left! I cried and woke up from my dream.

Kangaroo
I have a kangaroo. He understood most things. Yesterday was a complate disaster. I saw it. He walked on the street, he forgot the car.
He is in coma now. I sit next to him. Yesterday, I drank nothing for the last time.
There isn't one advantage in a hospital. It is cold here. I look at my kangaroo. He is talking!

A Disaster
Last week I forgot that I should have a drink with my girlfriend. It was a disaster, but one thing I didn’t understand was that my girlfriend wasn’t angry. I forgot the invitation, because my friends asked if I should drink some with them. One advantage was that I saw a man swinging like a kangaroo. It was very funny. When I walked to my house I saw my girlfriend and hugged her.

The red kangaroo
The red kangaroo drank very much alcohol yesterday. He walked home and he saw himself in a lake. He forgot he was red and though: what a disaster! A normal kangaroo is brown. He forgot he also was red yesterday and last year too. He didn't understand.

Bob's disaster
Once upon a time, there was a kangaroo, his name was Bob, he didn't drink any alcohol.
The advantage of not drinking alcohol is that you never get drunk. But one day, he was walking down the street and he saw 2 lights coming closer. Bob didn't understand what it was, but before he knew what it was, he got ran over by the car…

The kangaroo
Yesterday I walked to school, but I forgot my bag. So I went back home. I was really thirsty so I drank something. Then I went to my room to pick up my bag, but then I saw a complete disaster. There was a kangaroo in my room and I understood nothing about it. The only advantage of that day was that I didn't go to school anymore.
Marianne
A dream
"Mom! I dreamed tonight, that I was in Africa! " I walked and saw a kangaroo! He drank something and walked to me. We talked with each other and I understood him! He asked me for help. He forgot where he left the keys of his house and it was a complete disaster , because he let the water open and his babies were in the house. The advantage was that they had enough to drink.

The smoothieshop
Yesterday when I walked home I saw a smoothieshop! I really like fruitdrinks. So I took a strawberry smoothie. I sat there for a long time, apparently I forgot the time! When I came home, I understood that I made a big disaster. Because I started too late with biology. The advantage was that it was my favorite subject. It was about animals, like elephants, bears and a baby kangaroo!

A big disaster!
Yesterday a family forgot to lock the doors of their car.
They sat on a picknicktable and drank something.
When they came back they saw a kangaroo that walked to their car and opened the door.

They phoned the animal rescue and told them what happened.
The people of the animal rescue came as fast as possible, they got the kangaroo out of the car and the people of the car got their car back.
Nobody understood what happened that day.
But there was one advantage; they had something to tell now to all their friends!

The kangaroo who forgot his milk
The kangaroo walked on the sand, and it was very hot. He was thirsty and now he realized that he forgot his milk, he didn't drink anything this day. The kangaroo understood that it was a big disaster! This really big lion that was lying in the shadow saw that as an advantage and thought that it was good to catch him.
Zoe
Don't forget this
I know, yesterday was a strange disaster. The kangaroo in the ZOO was jumping out of the cage. He walked around the ZOO. What I forgot to say is that a few people saw it.
The people said:'''We don't understand.... how could this happen''? The only advantage was that the people drank a glass of water in the cage yesterday.
I hope you understood my story.
Kas
The bad kangaroo
In a small town in China lived an old man. He was a walking disaster because he forgot everything. One day he saw a girl that couldn't walk. He asked her what happened and she told him that she had been attacked by a kangaroo. The man went to the kangaroo and killed him. He went home but forgot were he lived so he had a big advantage.

Lonely party
Last week was my birthday, I was waiting for my friends, but when it was already a quarter past nine, I was still lonely. I didn’t understand! I walked up and down like a kangaroo… and then I saw it: I forgot to post the invitations! But it was not a complete disaster! There were also a few advantages: I ate and drank all the food and drinks!
Anouk
A little kangaroo
I am a kangaroo, I am really smart. Yesterday I forgot to do the dishes. What a disaster!
My mother was really angry... My mother walked to me and screamed at me. I drank a cup of tea. I saw myself in the mirror and I understood that I am not a really really smart kangaroo. What an advantage...

Today we had a drinking contest, but not an ordinary one. As my friend (who created this game) told us what to do, I wasn't really listening so when I said: sorry, I understood it all wrong. He got really mad, like a kangaroo it was a disaster! And after another explanation, he said: you saw it, right?! (and yes, I saw because I was raised as a drinker,

and I thougt I had an advantage) and we walked back to the start. But after that I drank so much I was stuffed. I threw up and forgot all the rules. what a complete disaster.

Kangaroo became sick
In the zoo lived a kangaroo. But there was a great disaster! The man worked there, but he forgot to give it some food and water. So the kangaroo didn’t eat and drink. And you saw that the kangaroo walked badly, because he needed some food. The advantage was that the man didn’t buy some food now. Later he saw the kangaroo was sick and understood it. He drank with the kangaroo.

The strange day
Today was a disaster. It began in the morning: I drank my tea and I remembered I forgot that I had to walk the dog yesterday. but I saw a movie about a kangaroo. I didn't understand why he wasn't jumping. it was not an advantage. Well, that was a strange day.

The advantages of a disaster kangaroo!
My name is John, John Hopsy but you can call me John. I always watch TV when I am home from work. Most of the time the Teletubbies, I think they are great! But last time I watched the Teletubbies I saw a very odd commercial. It was a commercial about the advantages of a disaster kangaroo. I was so fascinated by the idea of a kangaroo that can cause great disasters that I went to a friend and told him everything. We drank, walked to the TV, put it on and there it was, the commercial! He understood my fascination and we decided to build it. If you see a disaster kangaroo you know that me and my friend built it!
