n a deep dark forest, there lived an ant called

Sofia and a bunny called Camila. In this forest during summer it was so hot that you couldn´t move. The lazy bunny Camila was jumping, dancing and singing and Sofia was collecting food for summer, when the bunny shouted “Hey! Stop collecting food and come with me to jump, dance and sing.” But Sofia yelled “No! I am collecting food for summer because it is going to be hot.” The lazy bunny answered “summer doesn´t matter.” Sofia said angrily “In summer it is going to be so hot that you will not be able to move” Days passed and passed and the ant kept on collecting food, meanwhile the bunny was jumping, dancing and singing. When summer arrived the bunny couldn´t move and she had no food, but the ant that was clever and had collected food in spring so she had a lot of food. The dancer, jumper and singer was hungry so she went to ask food to the little, nice, clever and working ant Sofia that had a lot. When the lazy Camila got to the house of the ant

Sofia she knocked on the door and asked “Can I have a little bit of food please?”Sofia answered “Maybe, if next time you work I will give you food” Camila replied “Yes I promise.” After that they became friends. The moral is: There times to play and times to work BY: Catalina

Come and help me.” When she got there she saw Killer in a net. When the people pulled the net outside, Killer was on the surface. “If I go outside may be the people want to catch me, because I am so colorful and smart,” she said to herself. “Yes, I am goging to do it.

and clever dolphin who was building her house and collecting food for the end of the year, because she knew that the big and strong shark was going to come for his food and was going to break all the houses.

When it was lunch time Oli went to Momo’s cage, Momo put snake food into Oli’s plate and Tiger food in his plate. When Oli felt that the selfish Momo tricked her, because this disgusting food was not bunny food if not snake food, Oli didn’t say anything, she just kept on eating without saying anything. The next day, Oli wanted to get him back so she thought thought and thought until she had an idea, she was going to give Momo bird food. That night Oli got out of her cage when everyone else was asleep, the lions, the birds, the snakes … except for Momo that was about to go to sleep. When Momo was already asleep Oli went to Sophie, the

bird cage, she got Sophie’s food and went to sleep. The day after, Oli invited Momo to have lunch. Momo said, “Yes”. “Be careful” reminded Sophie, the bird. “Why?” asked Momo. “She could trick you” said Sophie. “NO, nobody tricks me” shouted Momo. “Be careful” said Sophie. When it was lunch time, Momo went to Oli’s cage. Oli served bird food on Momo’s plate and bunny food on her plate. They ate. When Momo realized that Oli tricked him, he shouted “You were right Sophie the bird!”

The manta ray and the crocodile

One day there was a manta ray and a crocodile. They were best friends. They lived in the sea. They liked to play tag. One day a boat came to fish. The crocodile told the manta ray that a fisherman was going to catch him. But it was a joke. The manta ray felt very sad because the crocodile lied to him. So the manta ray played the trick back. He exclaimed that five sharks were coming to eat the crocodile because they were hungry. He was scared do he swam very fast and he bumped in the coral. Then when he woke up the manta ray whispered that there were no sharks and they were friends again. The manta ray explained that he had made a joke to teach him a lesson. The crocodile learned that you have to treat people the way you want to be treated.
