If I were a kid for one day?

When I was a kid, I always wanted to be an adult quickly. Everything related to adults looked nice in my little eyes. I thought I wouldn\'t listen to nagging about my behaviors, I would do everything I want to do and I could live alone without my siblings in peace.(we used to fight and argue almost every day as we grew up.) So I\'ve never thought about that if I were a kid or gone back to my childhood. But let\'s squeeze my childhood memories, so I came up with the fairy tail Thumbelina. I was reading my book sitting on the chair in my yard, there were flowers and leaves which were Thumbelina was hiding. I felt there must be the princess in the flower or leaf. I read the book out loud so she could listen to the story, and then I lifted up every petal and leaf, I couldn\'t find her, of course. I guess if I were a kid for one day, I would do the same thing like this, and ask my mom \"Have you seen Thumbelina, how can I find her?\"

HI!

Thank you [이름] for sending your homework. You did a great job expressing your childhood memories and imagination. Your story about Thumbelina was very cute and creative. ^^ Anyway, I also have fixed some sentences to make them clearer.
