Have you ever wished you could fly like a bird? If so, you have to think again. I learned how to fly when I was six years old, and it was not a experience at all!

It was its owner by her feet, trying to get her to go. It seemed that even the owner was growing with her dog’s movements, as to my , she turned to me and said, “Would you like to walk my dog?”
ME? I was sure the dog would eat me whole in one bite. I looked at my parents to see if they would rescue me, but they were paying no to me.
A second later it was firmly tied to my wrist and I had no choice but to the dog. At first, it wasn’t so . The “monster” took its time, walking here and there. Then it took off like a rocket. My arm was nearly injured as I found myself being sent into the air.
In a few seconds, everyone on the beach was at me as if I had become some kind of local attraction. I tried hard to the sand with my feet.
Then the dog . And I fell onto the sand. The creature must have been , because it was walking slowly back to my parents and its owner were. When we finally got back, I noticed the looks of on their faces. My parents said, “What took you so ? Little boys shouldn’t wander away that far!” And then I began to loudly.
Is it strange that I have grown up to be a person who likes cats more than dog?
