Introducing Billy
Terrible Shooting
By Delbert Blickenstaff

Did you hear about the man who killed all those children?  I’ll bet you did because all the TV people are talking about it.  I don’t pay much attention to what’s on TV, unless there is a story about animals, but everyone is talking about this story.  And asking questions.  Like why did he do it?  And why didn’t his parents stop him?

Just think, some of those children were my age.  They will never get to learn anymore in school.  And never have any more birthdays.  And what about their families?  They will never get to see those children graduate, and to go to college.  I don’t understand.  How could anyone be so cruel?

I asked Dad why the man wanted to kill all those children and teachers.  He said no one knows, but he surely must have some kind of mental illness.  I don’t know what that means, but I sure hope it’s not catching.

Well Nelly, it’s time for bed.  You wouldn’t let anyone break in here and shoot us, would you?  She said no.  Good dog, Nelly.

Billy
