New Friends at the Zoo


The three friends walked along the sidewalk to the zoo building. In the yard next to the building, they saw many people gathered there.
“What are they doing?” asked Booker-T.
“I don't know,” said Jake. “Lets walk over there and see.”
They hurried across the street as more and more people continued to come to the area. In the yard were several walk-in pens. In one pen, they saw three little billy goats. In another pen they could see two baby pigs and the third pen had two donkeys and a pony. Kids were inside the pens petting the animals.
“What are they doing?” asked Midge.

Who is Jason


Jake sauntered along the sidewalk on his way to Midge's house singing, “Zipidity do da, Zipidity yay,”
When he got to the gate at Booker-T's house he saw Booker-T walking around the house.
“Hey, Booker-T,” called Jake.
“Hi Jake,” said Booker-T. “What are you doing?”
“I'm on the way to Midge's house,” said Jake. “Do you want to go to the little zoo and see what animals are there today?”
“Sure,” smiled Booker-T. “Maybe they have a pretty tiger. You know I like the tiger's color.”
“I know Booker-T,” smiled Jake. “ Because they are the same color as you are.”
“Orange is pretty, don't you think?” said Booker-T.

A Wish


Midge poked her head out of the doggie door and looked around the back yard. The yard was covered in a white blanket of snow.
“Oh,” thought Midge. “I guess it snowed all night.”
She ran out to the back of the yard to take care of business and hurried back inside to the warmth of the house. In the living room she leaped into the chair near Snappy's tank.
“Hi Snappy,” said Midge.
“Hi Midge,” greeted Snappy. “What are you doing?”
“Everything is white outside Snappy,” said Midge. “I think it snowed all night long.”

The Big Announcement

  Booker-T ran to Midge's house and crawled through the doggie door.
“Hey Midge!” called Booker-T. As he crossed the kitchen to the living room and leaped into the chair next to Snappy's tank.
“Hi Booker-T,” greeted Snappy.
“Hey Snappy,” replied Booker-T. “Where's Midge this morning?”
“Maybe sleeping,” suggested Snappy. “I didn't see her come out of the bedroom yet. Where are you going today?”
“Did Midge tell you about the strange vehicle we saw yesterday with a robot in it?” asked Booker-T.
