Cap. 1The Golden Star Adventure

Something is happening! The eagle flies high in the sky. It has big, strong wings. It sees a golden star in the clouds. The star is glowing! The eagle can fly to the star. Emma and Leo look up in surprise. They see the sparkling star in the sky. The kangaroo sees the golden star too. It wants to help. Can the kangaroo jump? Emma and Leo look at the kangaroo. Yes, it can! The kangaroo makes a huge, funny jump toward the glowing star. It jumps very high in the air. The children cheer for the kangaroo. The tiger and the zebra watch the jump. The monkey stops climbing to look. Everyone is excited. The magical star is very close. But then, the star begins to fall. It moves through the air like a bright, warm light. Where is it going? It falls down, down, down toward the lake.

Oh no! The star falls into the lake. It makes a big splash. The penguin sees the star. The star is under the water now. Can the penguin swim? Yes, it can! The penguin happily swims through the sparkling magical water. It swims toward the golden star. There are bubbles and glowing reflections in the lake. The hippo wants to help too. It is a very funny hippo. It tries to jump to the star. Boing! Splash! Can the hippo jump? No, it can’t! The hippo makes a tiny jump and lands in the water with a big splash. Emma and Leo laugh happily. The hippo is cute and happy. The animals are working together to find the star. But the star is still deep in the water. The monkey has a new idea. What can the monkey do? The children walk to the water to help their friends. The adventure is just beginning!
