Ginger the giraffe

Leo ?

I don’t know,” answered Mickey. “What do you think we should do?” Ginger thought for a while and then suddenly, she had a good idea. “We should go talk to Leo the Lion.

He is the smartest animal in the savannah!” Mickey was too tired to walk, so Ginger invited him to ride on her back. “Hold on tight to my neck,” said Ginger. “There’s a lot to hold on to,” joked Mickey. Ginger laughed. “You’re right. I’ve got the longest neck in Africa!” So they started their journey across to the other side of the savannah to look for Leo.

Ginger and Mickey were in luck! Leo was sitting up on a rock and he was really easy to see as they walked through the grass. “Hi, Leo!” they both shouted. Leo had been napping and was a little grumpy when they woke him up. But he was polite and said, “Hello Ginger and Mickey. Why did you walk the whole way across the savannah? Just to wake me up?” But he was joking; he had a smile on his face. “Mickey says that there is no food left on the savannah because it’s been so dry,” said Ginger. “Do you have any ideas?”
