Read the Text

On Sunday, my family goes to the city zoo. The zoo is big and very fun. We see many animals. The tickets are not expensive.

I love the monkeys. They eat bananas. They jump from tree to tree. They can climb very fast. The monkeys cannot swim well, but they are funny.

The lions sleep in the sun. They have big teeth. Lions can run fast, but they cannot climb trees. My little brother is a bit afraid of them.

We also see elephants and tigers. The elephants drink water with their long noses. Tigers are big cats. They can swim and they can jump. We have lunch and then we go home.
