Dear zoo

(une interprétation libre du célèbre livre pour enfants de Rod Campbell)

I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet.

They sent me a polar bear.

He was too big.

I sent him back.

So they sent me a zebra.

He had blue stripes and looked much too serious.

I sent him back.

So they sent me a monkey.

He was too cheeky.

I sent him back.

So they sent me a mouse.

He was too small and secretive.

I sent him back.

So they sent me a strange bird.

He didn't look very happy and had a really weird haircut.

I sent him back.

So they thought very hard and sent me this little girl in pink shoes.

She was perfect.

I kept her.
