In the jungle, there is a big, strong animal. It’s the lion – the king of the jungle!

He has a big mane and

sharp teeth. The other animals are scared of him. One day, a giraffe came to the jungle. The lion was
curious about this new animal. The giraffe was very tall and had a long neck. The lion wanted to eat the
giraffe, but he couldn’t catch him because the giraffe was too fast.

The lion also saw a cat, a dog, a gorilla, a tiger, a snake, a donkey, a horse, a fox, a wolf, and a leopard in
the jungle. But the lion was not afraid of them. He knew that he was stronger than all of them.

One day, the lion got sick. He couldn’t move from his place. All the animals were happy because they
thought that now the lion wouldn’t be able to hunt them anymore. But then something strange
happened. The other animals started to feel sorry for the lion. They brought him food and water. They
even helped him to get better. From that day on, the lion became friends with all the other animals in
the jungle.
