The Time I Caught Hermit Crabs

One time my papa rented a beach house and he invted us to come.   We said yes!   As soon as we got there we trhrew on our bathing suits then I got my bucket and headed out into the water.  I went about waist deep, bent down really quiet, and I used my toes to catch hermit crabs.  I caught about twelve hermit crabs with my toes.  Two died and one fell out of it's shell.  Ugh! 
One morning when I woke up my dad was in the living room.  He told me I had to let the hermit crabs go.  I walked down to the beach and I kneeled down to let the crabs go.  I was sad to let them go, but I got over it.  Later we went to cool gift shops and I saw a dolphin for the very first time.  I was still sad about the crabs, but then a few days later we went to the mall to get a hermit crab.

I liked your story because you put a lot of detail in it and I could feel how you were feeling when you let the hermit crabs go.

I love how you described catching the crabs, and I could feel how sad you were when you let them go.
