In the animal kingdom
Zelia Ibrahim

Once a upon a time, all the animals could talk.

They lived together with people in a town called Babianeha.

The people and animals worked happily together at Babianeha.

They worked very hard on a big farm.

2

One day, the Elephant called all the animals and the people of Babianeha.

He spoke, "My brothers and sisters, I want to tell you something."

3

Rabbit asked, "What do you want to share with us?"

Elephant said, "Brothers and sisters, Babianeha is now a very big town."

4

Elephant continued, "We need a king, and l want to be that king. I am big and very strong. Nobody is bigger than me. I have to be the King of Babianeha."

5

All the animals and people shouted at Elephant, "No! No! No! You cannot be our king. We need a wise king, not a big, wrong king."

They agreed to hold a vote.

After the voting, Lion won and became the King of the forest.
