El-Hoopa-Loopia-Letty-La

Below is a paragraph I found in my big hollow window seat packed with notebooks I filled as a child.  I wrote this when I was home schooled.  I'm not sure what age I was.  The story made me laugh out loud, however.  Take a look at these names. 

-----------

Athena Elpozalaweeya, age eight, looked out of her pearl window.  Pearl window.  Nice.  She was a princess... a princess of the hidden nation, El-Hoopa-Loopia-Letty-La.  "Daddy has to go to war," she sobbed.  Athena was terribly sad.

-----------

And that's all I had.  I love the name of her hidden nation, don't you?  El-Hoopa-Loopia-Letty-La.  I wonder what their national anthem sounds like.

God bless El-Hoopa-Loopia-Letty-La, land that I love........

  2. Hey Emily, have you read a Kisses From Katie? If you have not, you should consider it. If you have, you should review it. :)
