Sample answer
Jasmin was at an exhibition when she noticed something unusual. She was looking at some extremely expensive necklaces that were once worn by queens many centuries ago, when she noticed the man standing beside her. He was carrying a bag that seemed to move. Then a small monkey climbed out of it and the man quickly walked away. Jasmin saw the monkey hide under the display just as her parents insisted they move to another area of the exhibition. That's when a loud alarm went off and Jasmin saw the monkey run right past her with a necklace in each hand!
