Persuasive Argument Essay by Mackenzie, Age 8
 by Beth Cato
too many other girls in class
say they want to be princesses
that's STUPID
you have to either be born
a princess, and trust me
none of them are
or marry some prince or princess
and dance a lot and do boring things

me, I plan to be a fairy godmother
because that means I get MAGIC
meaning I don't have to marry to get
POWER
and yes, I want power, Mrs. B
anyone who says anything different
is a LIAR
power means I can make money
and mama won't have to work so much
and maybe we can leave on the heater
'cause it gets awfully cold at night
especially in grandma's room

I can magic us around
no worries about the car breaking down
I can sing a little song
and boom, we'll have hot, fresh food
and super-cold ice cream
and those mean Smiths below us
they'll need to shut their mouths
and be less mean
because I got magic!
when they start being loud late at night
I'll lean out my window and wag
my finger at them
like you do, Mrs. B
when the boys jabber behind me
and just like those boys
the Smiths will shut right up

in conclusion, this is why
I want to be a fairy godmother
which will be a million times better
than being a princess
though I might magic myself
a princess's castle
because castles are awesome
and have lots of fireplaces
