A Day Out

We are going to the zoo.
My friends are coming along too.

1

What a lovely sunny day!
Look at all the monkeys play.

2

The birds make many different sounds,
We hear it in the background.

3

The leopard is lying in the tree.
Oh wait, I see three!

4

The big lion lets out a big roar!
The lazy pigs lie on the floor.

5

We got a balloon and yummy ice cream.
Today feels like a dream!

6

Drip-Drop! It is starting to rain.
We need to head back to the train.

7

What a pity to leave so soon, but I am glad to have my balloon.

8

Today was a very good day.
I want to visit the zoo again someday!
