around and noticed the cage
was open. Zelda was curious
so she walked in.

his whistle, and all the monkeys came
running back into their cage. Then the zoo-
keeper let Zelda feed the monkey a banana.

someone
for money.

skirt. The lady turned around and to Zelda’s
surprise, it was her teacher. Zelda’s teacher

elephant.

front of the line. Zelda cut in front of the first

Zelda and told her she could never come back
to the zoo.
