Sophie's Persuasive Speech


I think being short is great because you become a hide and go seek champ.  You don’t bang your head on things and your also really cheap to run.

Now people, when your playing hide and go seek, if you’re tall, you’re a bigger target and people fid you straight away, but if you’re short then you’re not a target at all.  When you’re small you fit into the most craziest little places ever, like behind a bath on legs. I once did this in Pigeon Bay and it took them forever to find me.  I win all the time.

Take Graig Thornley for example, he’s six foot five tall!  Bending down to get through peoples doors is hazardous for him, he bangs his head on everything.  Now wouldn’t that be terrible, imagine it, so that’s why being short is great!

When you’re small you’ll wear your favourite clothes well, forever.  No more growing out of clothes just like that.  If you buy clothes, you should be allowed to wear them at least.  When you’ve gone to the mall or the fair, I’m sure you’ve seen the signs that say five year olds only, well, you’re in luck (again) because when your short you’re clothes are cheaper to buy – hence you’re cheap to run.

So my friends, now you know being small is great – you’re great at hide and go seek, you don’t bang your head and you’re cheap to run.  Short is brilliant!
