5. This is how the ponies of Assateague ended up on
Assateague island: Their was a ship called “The Spanish
Galion. A storm came along. The ship wrecked on the
island of Assateague. Now all that was left of the ship
was the ribs of it. And the Assateague ponies.
I’m a perfect
little angle
just like
ponies!

6. This is how people discovered the plants on the
island of Assateague. People discovered the plants on
Assateague when they discovered Chincoteague. When
people discovered how dangerous Assateague was, they
decided that Assateague could only be a home for the
animals that live on Assateague.

7. Did you know that there are even seashells on Assateague
beach?! Well, there are! If you ever go to Chincoteague, you should
check out Assateague beach! There are a lot of sweet things you can
check out! Such as the ponies, and the shells lying on top of the
sand! You can hardly even miss them! They are B-E-A-utiful
