TWIGMAN AND THE CROCODILE

ONE DAY TWIGMAN DECIDED HE WOULD LIKE TO GO FISHING. HE TOLD HIS FAMILY GOODBYE AND TOOK HIS FAVORITE FISHING POLE WITH HIM AS HE STARTED FOR THE LAKE.

AT THE LAKE TWIGMAN MET A PARK RANGER. HE ASKED THE RANGER IF THERE WERE ALLIGATORS IN THIS LAKE. THE RANGER SAID NO AND TWIGMAN STARTED TO FISH.

AFTER A WHILE TWIGMAN GOT A GOOD BITE ON HIS LINE AND HE THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO PULL IN A FINE FISH. IT WAS NO FISH ON HIS LINE. IT WAS A BABY CROCODILE.

THE MAMA CROCODILE CAME CHARGING AT TWIGMAN AND HE STARTED TO RUN AS FAST AS HE COULD RUN. HE FORGOT TO DROP THE FISHING POLE WITH THE BABY CROCODILE AND THE MAMA CROCODILE WAS GAINING ON HIM. WHAT CAN I DO THOUGHT TWIGMAN.

AT LAST HE DROPPED THE FISHING POLE WITH THE BABY CROCODILE AND THE MAMA STOPPED CHASING HIM SO SHE COULD CARE FOR HER BABY.

TWIGMAN FOUND THE PARK RANGER AND SAID TO HIM, "I ASKED YOU IF THERE WERE ALLIGATORS IN THIS LAKE AND YOU TOLD ME NO. I WAS JUST CHASED BY A CROCODILE." THE PARK RANGER SAID, "YOU DID NOT ASK ABOUT CROCODILES."

TWIGMAN RETURNED TO HIS HOME WITHOUT FRESH FISH. HE ALSO DID NOT HAVE HIS FAVORITE FISHING POLE BUT HIS FAMILY WAS HAPPY TO SEE HIM ANYWAY.
