    Default hello!! please help me! it's urgent..I gotta submit it in the morning!

    Please, proofread the short story below I have just written. I doubt that there are some grammar mistakes. And also see if the title I have given is appropriate.
    Thanks

    Two potatoes and a tomato

    There were two potatoes. The big potatoes said to the small one “ Kids eats me very eagerly” The little turtle asked “ How?”. He replied “I am eaten with rice and also savored as French fries” The said “So what?, I am also made into crispy chips” A tomato, standing nearby listening into the conversation, came to them, and said “ why are you fighting, chums?. You both can’t be eaten without my ketchup. So why to fight?. We somehow always need each other. And we all are equal in the eye of GOD”

    There were two potatoes, a big one and a small one. The big one said to the small one, "Kids eat me very eagerly." The little potato asked, "How are you eaten?" The big one replied, "I'm eaten with rice, and also enjoyed as french fries." The small one then said, "So what. I'm also made into crispy chips." A tomato, who was standing nearby listening to the conversation, came up to the potatoes and said, "Why are you fighting, chums? You both can't be eaten without my ketchup. So, why fight? We always need each other, and we are all equal in the eyes of God."

    Asad, please notice how I punctuated and used capitals in the quotations. You need more practice on that. So do you, Avalon.
