Sample Text from The Bee and the Elephant

“I am lost,” said Little Bee. “I cannot find my home!” “Can you please help me, Mr. Elephant?”

“Is this nest your home, Little Bee?” the elephant asked.

“Oh no!” cried Little Bee. “This is a bird’s home.”

“Is this cave your home?” asked the elephant.

“Oh no! This is a bat’s home.”

“Is this hive your home, Little Bee?”

“Oh yes!” said Little Bee happily. “This is my home.”

“Thank you for helping me, Mr. Elephant.”
