Aled Jones - The Zoo Animals
One sunny day all the animals in the zoo were happily playing, some of the animals were playing Tag, some were playing Hide and Seek and some were playing What time is it Mr. Wolf?
However, not everyone in the zoo was as happy as the animals. The postman had brought some news that the zoo keepers did not want!
Night fell on the zoo and the animals lay in their pens as they slowly driffted off to a peaceful sleep. Each animal dreaming of the games they had played that day.
The next day the animals woke to find everything was not as it should be! Some of the animals were missing. The elephant's pen was completely empty.
"What is happening?" said the duck to the hippo.
"I don't know." the Hippo replied, "But it doesn’t look good!"
Shortly after they heard a penguin crying. Duck went over and said "What is the matter?" "Well don’t you know? The zoo is closing." said the Penguin.
"Oh no!" Said Hippo
"And we all have to go to the wild," continued Penguin.
"That is terrible," said Duck.
So the animals set off for the wild. They were taken by the park ranger and it was a long long way, but they made it. The animals walked and walked until they could not walk anymore, then the Hippo said to Duck.
"What’s that over there?"
They walked a little bit further; a blur became a building which became a zoo! The animals ran as fast as they could to the zoo.
The animals were welcomed there and before long they were playing their normal games, some were playing tag, some were playing hide and seek and some were playing "What's the time Mr. Wolf?"
