L’arbre ungali

Narrator

This is the story that takes place in Africa. It is very very hot. The ground is dry, the sun shines all the time and there are no clouds in the sky. It didn’t rain for a long time, and everyone was very thirsty.

Le cheetah

I am so thirsty! So, what should I do? I want water!

Le zebra

Me too, I searched and searched, but I can’t find water. I hope that we find water soon.

The antilope

It’s true. There is no water in the lake and there is no water in the river. We need water.

La turtle

(speaking slowly)

Wait! I know!

Everyone:

Yes? Do you have an idea, turtle?

Turtle:

Yes, we must ask the lion… he is the king… he is smart. I can go there.
