Beauty and the Wild Dog
Olanipekun Praise

Once upon a time, there lived a girl named Beauty. Like her name, she was very beautiful. She was kind and caring, caring for everyone around her, which made everyone love her.

1

One day, her parents took her to the forest to go camping and see nature. At night, while she was sleeping, her parents were outside making a fire. Suddenly, she heard screaming. When she came out, her parents were gone.

2

"Where could my parents have gone?" she thought to herself. "I miss my mummy and daddy. I just want to go home," she cried. It was dark and lonely.

3

She was scared and looked around, but saw no one. Deciding to search for them, she walked for a while and found her mother's bracelet on the ground. She knew she was close to her parents.

4

She walked again and saw a dog in the forest. The dog liked her, and they became friends. She gave the dog her mother's bracelet to smell. The dog helped her find her parents.

5

The dog was very cute and had various colors. When the dog saw her, he liked her instantly. The dog made her stop racing for a while. She laughed and played with the colorful dog.

6

The dog led her to a cave where she found her parents, but a larger wild dog held them captive. "What do we do now?" she asked her dog friend. He replied, "Don't worry, my friend."

7

Beauty's dog fought against a larger dog and freed her parents. They were all happy, and Beauty kept her new wild dog as a friend.
