A Day at the Zoo

Last week, I went to the zoo. I always wanted to go there,
but this was my first time, and it was great!

When I entered, the zoo keeper gave me free peanuts and
juice. I realized quickly that this was a special zoo. They had

purple hoopoes, white turtles, and blue snakes. The elephants

were talking like people. The zoo keepers were teaching the

kangaroos how to play football. There was even a penguin

that knew how to fly. It was amazing!

Suddenly, something rang very loudly! It hurt my ears.

Then, my mom called me and I woke up. It was all a dream! ☺

Read the previous story. Then, answer the following questions.

1) Were there snakes in the story?

2) Were there storks in the zoo?

3) Was there a penguin who can fly?

4) Was there a flamingo in the zoo?

5) Were there white turtles in the story?

6) Were there giraffes in the zoo?
