The First Giraffe in Africa


Once upon a time at a farm there was a goat. He was telling his mom everyday that he wanted a long neck and brown spots so he could be different than the other goats. He also wanted to live in a hot place.
So he left the farm and went to Asia, past the Middle East, to Egypt and found the Sahara Desert. Everyday he kept saying, “I wish I had a long neck”. Each day, his neck grew longer, and longer until reached the sky then the space. He was getting closer, and closer to the sun until his ears started burning. That is when his ears got the funny shape. His body burned a little bit and that is how he got the brown spots. The goat said,” I wish I had a smaller neck that wouldn’t reach the sun”. He kept getting a smaller neck everyday until he reached the trees. He stopped there to eat leaves and he wished, his neck stopped growing.
He was finally happy because he was the first giraffe in Africa with brown spots and a long neck.

My Trip to the Aquarium


On Monday Feb 20, 2012 I went to the aquarium where I saw a lot of sea creatures. First I went to see a hammerhead shark. I also saw a scuba diver. When the hammerhead shark passed the scuba diver it didn’t eat him.  Maybe the shark was not hungry. Next I went to see the alligator. It was a very long one. Then I went to see the sea horses. There were a lot of tiny sea horses in there. Finally I went to see the lobsters. It looked like they were fighting but I am sure they were just playing. I had a wonderful time at the aquarium.
