Long, long, time ago, all the animals could talk.

Mother Mosquito and Baby Mosquito lived in a house.

1

Mother Mosquito always left Baby Mosquito at home when she went to search for food.

2

One day, after Mother left the house, Baby Mosquito decided to see what was happening outside.

3

Later that day, Mother Mosquito came back and found that Baby Mosquito was gone.

4

Mother Mosquito started to panic!

She was worried and was going to search for Baby Mosquito.

5

Just then, Baby Mosquito arrived, very excited.

"Mummy, the humans were so happy to see me. They clapped their hands every time I flew past!"

6

Mother Mosquito was alarmed.

"You say that people were happy and clapping their hands for you?"

7

"No, those people were not happy to see you. They were trying to kill you!" explained Mother.

"Humans are never friends with mosquitoes," she warned.
