Story: A
NUT ISLAND
Alvin, Simon and

But, one day a big storm comes and
destroyes all trees in the forest. The Chipmunks feel very sad because their
nut trees are also destroyed. Now, what will they eat? So, they decide to find
nuts on the ground and Simon goes left, Alvin goes right and Theador goes
straight ahead to find nuts. Many time past and many days go, but none of them
can find nut. Poor chipmunks are very sorry, tired and HUNGRY. They can’t stand
anymore and genius Simon remembers what their ancestor said: ‘ there is a very
big nut island in the World but it is very diffucult to go there becuse you should
pass many countries and cities which are very crowded with people. But there is
a map which shows the way of island' Simon thinks about the place of map but
can’t remember and asks his brothers. They all start to think where it can be.
Finally, Theador finds the place ! but map is not here, is not in the forest;
it is in the city. Sadly, they decide to go city to find map.
Here the adventure
starts… firstly, they walk many ways and pass seas and finally reach a big city
which their ancestor told. The city is very complex and they are shocked becuse
there are many places which they never see; schools,hospitals, libraries and greengrocers.... As they are very
hungry, firstly they go to greengrocer and take some fruits. Then, they start
to find but they can’t decide how and where they start. So Alvin shuts his eyes
and starts to turn around himself then he opens his eyes and say:
-I open my eyes toward the North and we can start here. They go
straigth ahead. While they are going, greedy Theador sees a huge nut and under
it a chocolate. He is very excited and say: - I see a nut there; behind the
post Office, let’s go there and eat some and may be the map is there. Alvin and
Simon are also excited and run there. But, what is it? It is just a billboard.
Being sorry, they return. While they are going they hear some voices coming
from right and look it. People with diffrent clothes are acting. So, it is
theatre.
Altough many days
past, they find nothing and lose their hope. With this hopelessness, they sit
on a Wall in front of a company and starts to sing. While they are singing, a
man,Dave, comes and shocked that they are singing animals. They stop and look
the man. Alvin says: -we are coming from destroyed forest and looking for a map
of nut Island and…weare hungry. Will you help us? Dave shocked but say :- okey,
you can come to my house.
Alvin asks:- ıs your house far? he replies: - No, not far away. We
will turn right and it is next to the bank.
They go to home
and eat waffles. After they thank Dave, thay ask whether he knows the Nut
Island or not. Luckily, dave knows where the island is. The chipmunks are very
excited and want to go immediately. But Dave says:- it is far away from here
and not easy to go. You should pass many places markets, hospitals, schools and
libraries. You are little animals and you can get lost and other animal like dogs can give you harm. In this time, they afraid. As David is music producer, he proposes that they will
make a song for coming Chiristmas together, the chipmunks sing it. After that,
David takes them to Nut Island. During this time, they can eat nuts and waffles
and they can go wherever they want; cinema, concert…
10 days later, they sing a song about Chiristmas and they become
famous around the city as singing animals. They start to gain much money and
they can eat many nuts. They all forget the ‘nut Island’ except Simon…one ninght
Simon asks – David when do you get us to island. David is very sorry because he
doesn’t want them to go. He insists them to stay here. Simon and chipmunks talk
about it. They all miss their land, ancestors and friends. Yes they can go and
live as usual. But Alvin and Theador
want to stay here because Dave is just like their father. He take cares
of them and love them. So they decide to stay here and live happily. So, the
