Violletta Firth – Part 3

A thought struck Mack like a lightning bolt,” Molly, let’s explore the jungle!” he exclaimed in excitement and was overwhelmed by the fact of all the snakes and critters he thought might be lurking inside but Molly shuddered at the thought of all those dangerous animals and creepy-crawlies she thought might be hiding inside,

“Mack! We can’t just go wondering and if we’re in the forever forest like I think we are we might meet a poisonous Snoth; if you don’t know what a Snoth is, then look it up in the dictionary. Oh no, you’ve never opened a dictionary in your life. You were just stuck up watching that silly Steve Backshall, like he’s going to teach you anything!” she shouted annoyance.

“Cool, I want to meet a Snoth! I could sketch one in my journal.” he replied with enthusiasm, ignoring his sister’s frustration. Molly groaned, Mack always snatched up a chance to prove he was the bravest, even when he was at an animal party, when he was only four, he volunteered to hold python. He had never cared for the facts. “Typical.” she thought just typical but then she always had to hold him back when he got carried away and yet never got a mention of thanks. Sometimes she thought, sometimes, it felt like they had nothing in common at all, but she knew too well the one thing that tied them together and they could both relate to was their love of an adventure.
