AMAZING ANIMALS The Pluar By the bin-bags
in a purple pram
something is making a noise
like someone breaking
a door with a hammer,
shouting so loud
it makes you deaf.

The Tameros

The Tameros lives in a cave
so that it doesn't get wet.
It only comes out when the sun shines
and goes in when the sun sets.
It hates the hard cold rain
because it makes its hairy body drippy,
because it gives him banging headaches
and makes the ground all slippy.
He lives off old boots and smelly socks,
he stamps on them till they're like jelly
then he swallows some into his belly
and saves the rest in a cardboard box.

The Antocel
The Antocel lives in an old church bell
with a diamond shaped hump on its back.
Whenever the bells ring it makes it mad:
it beats the scruffy old gravedigger's dad
with a handbell wrapped in a potato sack
and throws him down a well.

The Rhinuase
The Rhinuase really is a disgrace
He lives in a slimy stinking place
His seven eyes are bloodshot and red
He has three horns upon his head.

He lives on putrid, mouldy cheese
His nose is clogged by diseased fleas -
But the only reason people stare
Is because he has dandruff in his hair.

The Bopotamus

There's a big pile of mud at the side
of the road, near the gutter,
and in it is a hump, wobbling like jelly:
when you poke it your finger
sinks in and bounces out.
You leave it alone and walk away.

The Hippiros

It feels like a lump under your tongue;
when it wobbles it feels like slime rolling round your mouth.
When it yawns it sounds like a cough in your head:
it makes you sound like you've got a cold.
When you eat cabbage it bites your tongue and
makes you spit it out.

Gerard M.

The Goutan

There was a young goutan
who lived in a greasy frying pan.
He liked eating five pound notes
but found they got stuck in his throat.
He swigged them down with parafin
and lit up with a stupid grin.

Sarah Kelly

The Toreaoka

A Toreaoka lives on the planet Mars all by itself.
Everyday he gets skinnier and skinnier because he is too lazy to get his own food.
In this story it tells you that he lives all on his own, but what
it means is that
he lives in a house all on his own but
there are some little aliens that live on Mars and
he makes them bring food for him but the food that they bring him
is not enough and
all of the aliens' food ran out.
The food he eats are mars-bars, milky-way and galaxy.
They aren't the Mars Bars etc. that you eat on Earth:
the mars-bars are very hot and have fishes' eyes in them,
the milky-way is hard rock with different gases inside.
Galaxy has sticky space ant doings in it but
he has not had food for 1 year and 5 months now.

Bunmi Ileyemi

The Antigalle

Antigalle lives in a cooker where it is very hot.
Big sausage nose, humpy back like roast chicken,
eyes like fried mushrooms.
It slizzers sloppy and it slides through the bars.
When you open the door it hides and sticks to the top of the oven.
When you put the cooker on the heat makes it hungry:
it sucks the food with its sausage nose and when
you open the door all you can see is scraps of food and
you can hear loud snoring from the corner of the cooker.

Rachel Oliver

The Zant

The Zant lives in Asda
where it spins a nest between
two boxes 20 centimetres apart.
And visits Tesco and Sainsburys
where he, she, or sometimes both
eat the food off the shelves
and scare the ladies at the tills.
and go to libraries for honeymoons
and sleep in books and eat pages.

Robert Shaw

The Badille

The book is on the table. A big book.
The Badille
is eating meat inside the book.
Hamburgers drippy in the book.
He's shouting while he's eating -
he's a noisy eater.
