Hi Everyone!
Oh, we'd better not make too
much noise
or we'll wake the lion up.
And that doesn't sound
like a very good idea.
Even I get grumpy
when someone wakes me up
from a very good sleep.
Why don't you all come over here
where the lion can't hear us?
That's better.
Now, I'll tell you what's on
my mind.
You know, sometimes when
I'm all alone
and I don't have any friends to play with,
I wish that I could talk
to the animals.
Wouldn't that be fun?
