STORY: CONFUSED LANGUAGES



CONFUSED LANGUAGES

Once upon a time a group of friends (Rabbit, Fox, Tiger, Cat and Elephant) were playing football in the playground. Suddenly, Rabbit threw the ball into the forbidden forest. They were very scared, but Fox decided to go in with all their friends. They went into the forest and they found a very old house and inside the house they found a Book of Spells. Tiger, opened it and saw a page with the picture of a witch. Then, he read one of the spells : ‘Abracadabra 1,2,3...witch appear here’.
Tiger turned into a witch. Then, the witch said some words and captured all the animals except Fox who ran away back to the park.  He went to ask for help but no one understood him. Fox remembered that the witch said a spell and he went to the wise man who could understand all the languages of animals and helped him.
There was a tulip that can only be found at the top of  Dead Mountain. So, Fox and the wise man climbed to the mountain and they found the antidote. He took it and went back to the town and gave their friends the antidote.
Since then, Tiger turned back into his original form and Fox decided to open a Language Academy so everybody could speak with each other.
