Text from Shongololo’s Shoes
Where are all my shoes? I know I left them here!
I haven’t seen your shoes. Go ask Snail!
No shoes here. Go ask Giraffe.
I’m in a hurry – go ask Frog.
Shoes? How many? Go ask Flamingo.
Seen your shoes? No, not me.
Will I ever find my shoes?
Shoes, eh? You should ask the Monkeys.
Hello hello? We’re busy. Go ask Owl, she knows everything!
Hmm. I have an idea. Why don’t you ask Lion?
These are yours? I’ll give them all back if you come to my party!
