<a href="http://kidpub.com/kidpub/">KidPub</a> is an enchanting little website that I rediscovered after rediscovering a list of my circa-1995 bookmarks. (And it looks today almost exactly like it did then -- you can even see a bit of Siegel influence) KidPub is a place for children to post their stories, poems, etc. Most of the authors seem to be in the 9- to 12-year-old age range, and the stories have titles like "<a href=http://kidpub.com/kidpub/kidpub-display-story.php?SID=3d4e043e05a0a>The Mystery of the Circus Clown</a>" and "<a href=http://kidpub.com/kidpub/kidpub-display-story.php?SID=3dc977be9c487>Crazy School</a>". A cute site to remind you of the importance of reading and writing for children.post:www.metafilter.com,2002:site.21559Mon, 11 Nov 2002 21:19:11 -0800oissubkekidpubwritingkidschildrenstoriespoetryauthorsreadingBy: dhoyt

Hrm, I remember writing a story in 6th grade. It was supposed to be a 'mystery'. And I based my story on a dream I had. A nightmare actualy.
Anyway, before I was going to go up to read my story, I decided I should have the teacher read it first to make sure it was "ok", and she was like "no, no, it's fine."
then I was like "no you really should read it". She did, and then she got all pissed off and scolded me.comment:www.metafilter.com,2002:site.21559-386146Tue, 12 Nov 2002 02:40:30 -0800delmoiBy: delmoi

<em>What an exciting adventure! Last summer I was battling ghosts at a haunted arcade. Tony and I had defeated the arcade owner. The place mysteriously disappeared.</em>

The Boy Who Ate Herring
by Kenneth age 9
There once was a boy who ate herring,
He used the herring as filling.
When it was dinner,
He quickly shrunk thinner,
And now he is still shrinking.comment:www.metafilter.com,2002:site.21559-386290Tue, 12 Nov 2002 10:29:14 -0800sonofsamiam
"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself. A minute later and she was her cold calm self again. As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain. Extraneous decoration, such as detached filagree work of iron, or painting in colours, is [159] so repulsive to the taste of the true engineer and mechanic that it is unnecessary to speak against it. Dear Daddy, Schopenhauer for tomorrow. The professor doesn't seem to realize Down the middle of the Ganges a white bundle is being borne, and on it a crow pecking the body of a child wrapped in its winding-sheet. 53 The attention of the public was now again drawn to those unnatural feuds which disturbed the Royal Family. The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law. They've been arrested in violation of the Constitution and laws of the State of Indiana, which provide¡ª" "I know of Marvor and will take you to him. It is not far to where he stays." Reuben did not go to the Fair that autumn¡ªthere being no reason why he should and several why he shouldn't. He went instead to see Richard, who was down for a week's rest after a tiring case. Reuben thought a dignified aloofness the best attitude to maintain towards his son¡ªthere was no need for them to be on bad terms, but he did not want anyone to imagine that he approved of Richard or thought his success worth while. Richard, for his part, felt kindly disposed towards his father, and a little sorry for him in his isolation. He invited him to dinner once or twice, and, realising his picturesqueness, was not ashamed to show him to his friends. Stephen Holgrave ascended the marble steps, and proceeded on till he stood at the baron's feet. He then unclasped the belt of his waist, and having his head uncovered, knelt down, and holding up both his hands.
