Let me tell you about my life as a toothbrush…
My life as a toothbrush is fun because I get to go in Anna’s mouth and I get to clean her teeth. The first day she held me. I was so excited when we got home. I was so happy to have a home with a person who loves me. The next day Anna took me to the bathroom. Do you know what a bathroom is ?
That day she was thrilled. She took me into her mouth and it was………??? FUN!!!!!!! When I went into her mouth I was singing in her mouth and it was ´´I am cleaning I am cleaning´´. That was the best day ever THAT IS MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A FUN LIFE.

Let me tell you about my life as a toothbrush…
One day I was made in a factory and I heard a worker say “We’re gonna be rich! With these AMAZING toothbrushes we can make a fortune!!!”
After I heard that I was SO EXCITED!
But then THE HORROR CAME DUNN DUN DUUUUUUUN… I was stuck on a shelf all by myself and every other sibling of mine (toothbrushes) was taken.
I was on the shelf for many, many, many years, Then one day a little girl looked and pointed at me. Her mum grabbed me off the shelf and handed me to the little girl.
Then, a few seconds later I was at a whole new different place! Humans call it home. Then I was put in a room called the BATHROOM. It was getting dark soon and the little girl named Angela opened the door, walked in and grabbed me. Yuck! she put this weird smelling and yucky looking thing that was called TOOTHPASTE on me. The toothpaste said “Hey…….. Sup dude” Then I saw the inside of Angela’s mouth – ewww! There was black, yellow and even green! She opened her mouth and *swish scrub* . Yuk! I had all of that bacteria on me and she had clean white teeth. That’s not fair! I thought.
A few years later I was old and put in something called the rubbish bin. And that’s the end of the story. But if you are wondering where I am now? I have been recycled into a hair brush!

The day I was made:
When I woke up it was the day I was made, I found myself in a strange building. People call it a factory. It was so big that a million of me could fit in here.
Monday – I was put on a high shelf. It was soooooo boring, so I decided to make some friends. But whenever I asked someone to be friends with me, they just kept saying, “Why would I be friends with you, you’re new, dummy?”
Tuesday – I give up on making friends so I am just gonna wait and wait until someone buys me.
One hour later: Ugh, it’s been one hour. Isn’t somebody going to buy me?
Wednesday – Wow this sucks. It is so boring and I am alone because everyone on the shelf that I’m on is bought, but me.
Thursday – OMG, why am I not getting picked？If I’m not getting picked I would rather jump off the shelf into someone’s basket.
Friday – Another toothbrush saw me and said to me, ”Want to be friends?” When I heard that I quickly said, ”YES!” Then I thought, well this is not so bad after all.
Saturday – Finally I was picked, I was picked by a boy. When I was at his home I was put in a deep plastic bucket but he said to me, “Stay in this cup. I’ll see you at night.’’
At night I was grabbed by the same boy and covered with something called toothpaste. A moment later I was moving in a bubbly dark room called a mouth. Boy, it stunk! And it had yellowish white teeth.
One month later – Sunday: It was time. I was put in the plastic bin. The next time I woke up, I was a paintbrush!
