Description
The Wurtherington Diary: The Little Doll Girl. Art by Duy Truong
"Heave ho! Heave ho! Back to the sea you go!"
The crew lassoed the beached whale and began dragging it back into the sea. While Captain Flynn directed his men with the task, long tentacles burst out of the water and wrapped around him pulling him in. "It's Nellie!" he cried. Others rushed to his aid and began dueling the giant octopus. It was a fierce struggle for all. It did not look good for the Captain and I looked into the Nellie's eyes and had an idea. I ran into a toy store and grabbed a red rubber ball. The clerk looked at me when I picked it up. "Captain Flynn will pay for it! I'll be right back." I ran to the shore where all the ruckus was taking place. I shouted, "Fetch, Nellie!" and tossed it as hard as I could out into the sea.
It worked....
