Graffiti or street art? task 2

 Yesterday we read an article about people being arrested for doing graffiti or street art? I enjoyed reading this because it was a very interesting article and it had different street artists at the end of the article. The article was about two men that were jailed for graffiti and showed similar cases.

I don't think the two men should have been arrested because street art can help people feel happy and it should be good if people graffiti because people make a living out of graffiti and some people make heaps of money from graffiti. So the two men shouldn't be arrest because they are just lifting people's spirits and beautifying the city or town.

Onion wives

Onion wives

Long ago six families lived on the outskirts of the village. during the day the men would hunt and the wives would look for herbs in the forest to cook the meat. one day one of the wives found a group of small plant-like balls, they had discovered sweet onions. they bit into them and they loved them! they gathered lots of the sweet onions and brought them home." what is that smell?" said one of the husbands "something is rotting!" said another as they approached the wives they screamed "it's you" they showed them the onions and told them to taste them, the husbands shook their heads and told them that they had to sleep outside that night.the next night was the same and it kept happening the wives wanted them to taste the onions but husbands didn't. after awhile the wives were sick of sleeping under the stars and that night when they were laying on grass they were telling each other that they must leave. The eldest wife knew magic and chanted words, a rope appeared the wives held on to it, and the eldest again chanted magic words and the rope began to rise into the sky higher and higher. the husbands saw them up in the sky and ran outside and they did the same as the wives and went up and up the wives saw this and the eldest stopped them coming up. the husbands were stuck as the Taurus constellation and the wives were the Pleiades cluster
