9 A Day in the Life of Simon Carrot

First of all, I must tell you about myself. I am thirteen and I am in the third class at a Grammar school in Manchester. I have a young sister, called Rosemary, who is very stupid, and I have a dog, called Pal, who is very clever.

What a terrible day! I woke up late and didn't have time to eat my breakfast. I couldn't find my books or my school cap. At last I found my books — in the bathroom; and at last I found my cap — my dog, Pal, was playing with it! I had to wait ages for a bus and I was nearly late for school. (Wiggy, my class teacher, told me, on Friday, that he would give me five hundred lines if I was late again!)

The first lesson on Monday morning is Maths. What a terrible way to start the week! Mr Bailey, the Maths teacher, collected our homework and saw the big blot in my book. He was very angry. Then, he gave us some sums to do. I was sitting next to Jane, who is fat and not very pleasant but very good at Maths. I asked her what the answers were, but she wouldn't tell me.

The next lesson was French. I like it nice to be able to talk to somebody in another language.

At last, it was eleven o'clock — time for break. Susan gave me a piece of cake to eat with my milk. She also let me copy her Latin homework because I hadn't done it. I think she likes me, and she's pretty too.

After break we had two lessons of Latin! They are always the worst two lessons of the week. I hate Latin! Mr Williams gave me a hundred lines for talking to Susan, but I wrote them out in class instead of reading a Latin book.

At half past twelve it was time for lunch. I was very hungry! I sat down at the table feeling very happy because the Latin lessons were over. And then I saw what was for lunch: meat pie, boiled potatoes and cabbage. I hate meat pie, boiled potatoes and cabbage! But I ate a little because I was so hungry.

Then I went into the playground with my friends, Pete Sharp and John Ford, and we played football. William joined us later.

After lunch we had a History lesson. I don't usually like History, but I liked this lesson very much. We learned about William the Conqueror and the Battle of Hastings in 1066. We were on holiday in Hastings last summer, and I had seen all the places that the History teacher told us about. I said I would bring some photographs of our holiday to school the next week.

At three o'clock it was time for my favourite "lesson" of the week-games. We played a very exciting game of football.

After school, at four o'clock, Pete and I bought some sweets, and I went to his house to listen to his Beatles record. It's a marvellous record. I want to buy it, but I haven't got enough money.

Mum was angry because I didn't arrive home till half past seven. My supper was cold. Ugh!

I did my French homework — it was easy — but I didn't do my History homework. There was an interesting programme on television. I can do it tomorrow during break.
