Tobi and his friends loved playing near the river.
They ran, jumped, and laughed every evening.

1

One evening, as Tobi played,
a tiny insect buzzed near his ear - bzzzz!

2

It was a mosquito!
It bit Tobi's arm and flew away.

3

The next morning, Tobi felt weak and hot.
His head hurt. He didn't want to play.

4

Tobi's mother took him to the clinic.
The doctor checked him and said,
"You have malaria. A mosquito but you and made you sick."

5

The doctor gave Tobi some medicine.
He told Tobi to rest, drink water, and take all his medicine.

6

After a few days, Tobi felt strong again.
He was ready to play - but he had an idea first!

7

Tobi told his friends,
"Let's clean the village! Let's pour out dirty water,
So mosquitoes can't lay eggs and make people sick."
The friends got to work together.
