The boat capsized but I

managed to survive. I walked

on and on till I could walk no
more. I was completely
exhausted. I collapsed on the
short, soft grass and fell into
a deep sleep. It was daylight
now. I woke up. I tried to get
up but couldn’t stand. I found
my arms what they wanted to
do with me. Then I felt as if a
thousand needles were
pricking my body.The little
men were shooting arrows at
me. Then I lay still without
moving. One of the elders,
perhaps their leader, stood on
a raised platform near me. I
indicated for food and water.
He seemed to understand me.
He sent hundreds of men up
to my face. I had my dinner.
After the generous dinner, I
went to sleep again. This was
my first day among
Lilliputians.
