Chapter Four: Fagin's
Game
After breakfast Fagin said to Oliver, "You can go out
with Dodger today.” Oliver was happy and excited. He wanted to work. He
followed Dodger to the market. They walked very slowly. Suddenly Dodger stopped.
"Do you see that old man near the bookshop? He's perfect." The old
man was in front of the bookshop window. Dodger went behind the old man. Dodger
put his hand in the old man's pocket and pulled out a handkerchief. He then ran
away. Oliver began to run too. At that moment the old man put his hand in his pocket.
He did not find his handkerchief. He turned around and cried, "Stop thief!"
Other people cried, "Stop thief!" Everyone ran after poor Oliver.
Oliver ran and fell. A policeman caught him and said, "Get up!"
"I didn't steal the handkerchief!" cried Oliver. "Another boy
stole it, but he isn’t here." "You're the thief!" said the policeman.
"No, no! Stop! I work at the bookshop and I saw everything," said
another man. "This boy is innocent. Another boy stole the
handkerchief." Oliver was free. But he was very weak and fell to the
ground. The old man was very kind and said, "Oh, the poor boy! Look at his
white face. He must come home with me." He called a carriage and took
Oliver to his house. The old man's name was Mr Brownlow. He lived in a very
nice house in a quiet London street. When Dodger arrived home Fagin asked,
"Where's Oliver?" "A policeman took him away," said Dodger.
"What!" cried Fagin. He was furious. "Oliver will tell the
police about us. We must find him."

NEXT PART OF THE STORY
The man who took Oliver home gave him clean clothes and food.
When a week passed, the man realized that he couldn't support Oliver, because since he worked in a bookstore, he didn't have enough money to support another person. So he decided to take him to an orphanage so that he doesn't suffer with him and that they can feed him well. The day they said goodbye, they shed a light tear. The man said Oliver: "When you go out come, visit me"
I wish you liked it.
Irene, you have come up with a great idea! I particularly like the phrase 'they shed a light tear'. Well done 😊!

Well done Cristina! Please remember - 'story' not 'history'. Great use of verbs too! 😊😊
EliminarHi Leah! I continue the story:
ResponderEliminarBut Fagin and Dodger decided wait to look for Oliver the next day.
At Mr. Brownlow home, Oliver met his wife and his son, they liked him very much. They gave him new clothes and they had dinner together. This night Oliver slept very well . The next day, when he had seen out the window, he saw that Dodger and Fagin were coming Mr. Brownlow¨s house, so he escaped.
Good work Nico! I'm interested to find out what happened after Oliver escaped from Mr Brownlow's home. Well done for using verbs in the past, especially irregular verbs! 😊
EliminarHi Leah I´m Alberto of 6ºA.
ResponderEliminarContinuation of the history:
Fagin and Dodger went to the policeman thinking that Oliver was there. When they arrived, they saw that Oliver was not. He was with the old man, Mr Brownlow. Dodger and Fagin
didn´t know where he could be. While Oliver was happy in the house of London.
The others continued looking for him and finally they found him. Depite the prayers of Oliver for staying there, Fagin take him back to his house. Oliver was sad again.
Kisses.
Well done for continuing the story Alberto! I see that you haven't chosen a happy ending. You have used some excellent phrases, especially 'despite the prayers of Oliver', so well done! 😊 Also, please remember 'story' not 'history'.
EliminarWow, this is a really good ending Nerea - good job and well done for using the past tense, especially with some difficult irregular verbs! 😊
