This is my entry

THE TREASURE MAP
They were two little brothers and that day their mother told them that they had to clean the basement of the house, angry they went down to the basement and said it was very big and they would never finish cleaning it.
They began to clean and under many old things was a huge trunk closed with a padlock, they caught their attention and decided to open it, finding inside a map that marked a treasure.
The girl grabbed the map and the bottom of the trunk opened like a hatch.
The brothers decided to enter through the tunnel and at the end of the road they were on an island, it was like another world there were bright birds and butterflies, beautiful flowers that had never seen the sea was like glass, they were so amazed that their little brother He said let's look for that treasure that is there, I point to the map.
They toured the island until they found the treasure in the place indicated on the map, but they were so tired to return that they fell asleep. When they woke up they were in the basement and they saw the trunk with the padlock on it. And they said everything was a dream, but next to the trunk was the treasure. They said this is our secret.
