Rousie Re-tell

This week, the task was to read a story (Rousie) and re-tell it in one paragraph with a maximum of 10 sentences. So here it is:

Rousie is a girl who lives on a farm and this October her Dad has brought down a mob of sheep to get ready for the October Shearing. They use her Dad’s old horse and the dogs to keep the sheep in place. Rousie has to wake up early to start on the sheep since there are 15000 of them! Her job is to keep the floor clean of wool, sort the wool and keep everything tidy for the shearers. She works all the way through to lunch then have a break and back to work! At the end of the day, she watches as the bales of wool drive away on a truck. She is happy with them because the wool means money for the farm and for the sheep. Rousie is very happy.
