Betty's Banger

Betty had a banger and it was noisy. She was kind and everybody laughed at her car. She drove granddad Joe to the hospital when he was sick.
One day something very bad happened when she was going down the hill. She pushed her car down to her house. Somebody knocked at her door but nobody was there .She said ‘it’s just the kids’ and she went outside to see her old banger and the banger wasn’t there. There was a red shiny car.
