A Day at the Zoo

Clique para ouvir o texto:

Today is a sunny day. I am at the zoo with my family. There are many animals here. There is a big elephant, and there are three small monkeys.

My sister loves the lions. She says they are the most beautiful animals. I like the giraffes. They are taller than the trees! We can see a tall giraffe and an old turtle.

We don't have much time, but we have a little time to see the snakes. I don't like snakes. I think they are scary. It is a fun day at the zoo.
