Peter Rabbit

Surprise! 80 Words or Less Contest Winner 
On my birthday, I bought a second hand copy of the story Peter Rabbit. I had loved this book as a child and the drawings inside revived a wonderful memory of reading under the willow tree. I settled into my favorite chair and suddenly noticed that it was an old library book that still had the card tucked in the pocket.

I slipped the card out and saw my name. I had taken this book out forty years ago.


Writing Prompt
Write a complete story in 80 words or less.

The theme is 'Surprise.'

You may incorporate this theme into the story any way you wish, but it must somehow relate to the topic.
