Clive and the Missing Finger by Sarah
Garland
I looked through the crack in the fence. What I
saw made my hair stand on end. A pack of dogs
were throwing themselves at the fence. They were
barking and snarling so much, spit came through
the crack. This was the first time I had been in my
new back garden. My heart was thudding
“Don’t you go disturbing them dogs!” shouted
someone from behind the fence.
“That will be Mr. Tibbald, our neighbour,” said
Dad.
Mr. Tibbald stood on a log and looked over the
fence. His face was red and twisted in anger. He
lifted his fist and shook it at us. That was when I
saw it. Mr. Tibbald’s right index finger was missing.
“Yes, I see you staring. It was Rex who bit it off. He
thought it was a lump of meat,” shouted Mr.
Tibbald. “If you goes near them dogs you’ll get
what you deserves!”

the fence?
