Mary Poppins the Turtle and Elvis the parrot are having
a conversation…. but about what?
Animals can communicate, but we can’t understand.
But can they understand us?
We don’t fully understand them.
Maybe they talk through their minds!
Can they see thru walls?
Whatever it is they say…. we love them.
Unless they are saying…’we should hatch a plan
so we can escape”
Say What?

This sloth called Lotus was found on
someones porch in the Bronx.
While the people went to call the animal
patrol, the sloth crossed the street and
went straight to a post across the street.
When the people came out they saw lotus
across the street holding on.
Just then the animal patrol came.
They took the sloth off and saw that there
was a piece of pizza next to him with a lot
of bite marks on it.
The animal patrol people took the Sloth to
a vet and they said that Lotus was eating a
lot of human food… but he was fine.
Then they took her to Brazil where a lot of
other Sloths live.
Now Lotus is living happily in the trees of
Brazil, but he misses his pizza!

You would think that a friendship with a baby tiger & an orangutang
would be strange, but it’s true.
These 2 cute animals met when they were just born & they are still
friends. Spot & Chloe love going to the beach together. They love
sitting in the sand & building sandcastles. This odd friendship is one
of the most powerful friendships in the world.
One day some nice lady found them on the beach and took them to
the zoo. When they got there the lady said “ Can you keep Chloe
& Spot in the same place?” The zookeeper said “ of course” So the
zookeeper got a big box for Chloe & Spot. They were the most pop-
ular animals in the zoo. Spot & Chloe were happy living in the zoo,
and lived there for the rest of their lives.

Why should we be kind to animals?
by Rahman Ahmed
Like in the circus, we capture animals and train them.
Like lions, they whip them really hard and we should be kind to them.
What about elephants? They train them to walk on “Little balls”.
What if they flatten the ball!
And the Giraffes…don’t forget about the giraffes. They make the
giraffes do holahoops on their necks. We should treat them the way
we treat ourselves.

Bird of Paradise
by Le Wang
Duck walks into a
store… asks the manager,
“do you have any Grapes? “the
manager answers… NO!
The duck walks out and comes back in a few
minutes. He asks the manager again….
“Do you have any grapes?” the manager
answers….. NO!
The duck comes back again & again asks…
“Do you have any grapes?”
The manager is getting annoyed….If you ask me
one more time “I’ll nail your beak to the door”
Duck comes in again & asks “do you have a
hammer & nails ?”
The owner says “NO” The duck
asks “well do you have any
Grapes?”

We have to be kind to
animals because we
destroy their homes at
times and kill them for
things like purses and
leather clothes.
