Dolly, the donkey, had a kind master. The master taught Dolly to help him carry heavy things. However, Dolly was too playful, to listen to her master. Instead of doing her work, the young donkey would go for a walk in the jungle.
One day, Dolly wandered into the jungle. She met some squirrels and asked them to play with her. “Sorry, we have to look after our brothers and sisters,” they said. Dolly walked on and saw a tiger. She quickly hid in a cave. When the tiger left, Dolly came out of the cave.
It was getting late and the sky was dark. “Help!” Dolly screamed suddenly. A snake was trying to bite her. She ran home to her master as fast as her legs could carry her. Her master was waiting for her at the door.
