Roger's Great Adventure

Glancing around nervously, Roger took the book silently from the dusty shelf and slid it under his jacket.

It was a cold day in Minnasotta when Roger was reading his history book. It was talking about an old library with valuable books inside. He and his family were poor. His mom had a hard time keeping food on the table for him and his younger siblings. They needed money badly.

That week Roger was going on a big field trip with his history class. It was to the library with the books! "Hey Roger you ready for the trip we gotta be there in like five!" said his friend Ryan.

"Coming! Just needed to find my sock." Roger said out of breath asn he ran down the stairs. "Bye mom, bye Lulu, bye Luke! Love you!" Roger called as he ran out the door. He was so excited.

Roger and Ryan made it to school just in time. The plane ride was boring. The girls gossiped, teachers slept, and the guyswere guys. When they got to Egypt they wnet to the hotels. " Yo these rooms are beast! Right Roge? Ran said.

"Ya Ryan." Roger sat on his bed took out a piece of paper and wrote the letter.

At the library when the were allowed to walk around Roger put his plan into action.

Glancing around nervously, Roger took the book silently and slid it under his jacket. "What is that? Hey who is stealing that book?" Roger yelled. Everyone ran twords where Roger had pointed while Roger ran away He ran all the way to the hotel room got his bag and went to the airport. He bought a ticket, with the money he stole from a teacher. And went to the place on the slip of paper.

"Wow." Roger said blown away by the city of Tokyo. "So this is where dad lives." He went to the address on the slip he had found months agoand knocked.

"Hello. May I help you?" said a man, in Japanese.

"Hi I don't speak Japanese but I am Japanese and I think your my father and I ran away on a school field trip and I need to say the night so can I?" Roger said all in one big breath.

"What is your name?" The man asked, now in English.

"Roger. My name is Roger."

"Come in you can stay one night just one and then you're going home."

Roger ate a good dinner and a good breakfast but he didn't talk much. The mawas acctually his father. But Roger was mad. Why would he not share his wealth with a poor mother who needs to feed her kids?

The next day Roger sold the book, for some good money. And bougt a plan ticket. On the plane Roger looked over his letter.It went like this.

//Dear Mom,//

//I love you verymuchand I know I'm in big trouble but if your reading this ltter I'm on my way to jail. It's a long story I will tellyou when you come to visit m. Hopefully. Give everyone all my love. Oh, here is some money too.//

//Love,// //Roger//

Roger turned himself in for sealing thebook. Surprisingly though they didn't lock him up. They explained that some of the books in the library are fake, or copies. He was lucky and just took a copy. They sent him home the next dy. He ran home and opened the door. "Mom! Lulu! Luke!" Roger sid excitedly. "Rogy?" said Lulu. "Wy are you here?" asked Luke. "Mommy is sad." They said together. "Take me to Mommy." said Roger. They went upstairs and when Roger's face apeared in the doorway his mom started crying even harder. She was so happy o see him. Roger went over and gave her a hug and whispered "I love you."

"I love you more."
