In a village named Manguli, lived Alidu's family.

Alidu and his wife, Mary, had two children, named Alima and Abu.

Alima was six years old, and her brother Abu was nine.

One day, Alima told her father about the animals she had learned about in school. "Dada, our teacher told us there is a place where we can see animals."

Father replied, "Yes, there is a zoo in Kumasi, a place where animals are kept for people to visit and see."

Alima was happy to hear that and said, "I want to go there."

Abu added, "Yes, Dada, take us to the Zoo."

Their father agreed. He drove the whole family to the zoo in Kumasi.

When they arrived at the zoo, Alidu paid the tour guide to take his family around.

He also bought Alima and Abu ice cream.

During the tour, Alima and Abu saw elephants, lions and many other animals they had learned about in school.

They were very happy to see the animals.

After touring the zoo, they got back in their car and returned home with excitement and beautiful memories.

Alima said, "Dada, I would love to come back again one day to visit."
