The spirit gave the puppy a water bottle.  The puppy asked’’ what is this for?’’

    The spirit said’’ it’s for if the dogs chase you, you spray them.’’                                     

     The dog chased the puppy again. The spray bottle didn’t work. The puppy called the spirit. The puppy said, “The bottle didn’t work.”

   The spirit gave the puppy a book. The spirit said, “If the dog comes near you you hit it.”

    The next day the dogs pursued the puppy again.  The puppy hit dog with the book but all that did was make the dog madder. the puppy called the spirit.  “It did not work.”

    The spirit gave him a desk.  “The desk is you get chased again you drop it on them.”  The dog attacked the puppy.  The puppy threw the desk at the dog.   But he missed.  The puppy called the spirit. 

     The puppy called the spirit. “It does did not work.”

     The spirit gave him a bark.

      The dog chased him again the puppy barked.  It scared the dogs away. That  is how the puppy got its bark.

“Please.”

“No.”

“Please.”

“No.”

“Please.”

“No.”

“Please.”

“Okay fine.”

“Yea.”

“But you have to do something.”

“What do I have to do?”

“You have to blend in.”

So he did. The animal spirits saw him and he was trying so hard then they just let him blend in.

    The people and the turtle were doing a jigsaw puzzle. Turtle didn’t know that it was a picture of ripped up ball. When they finished the puzzle turtle took a walk and saw mud.

     He said, “Mud might give me a shell.’’ So he patted it on his back and he started to walk. It slid right off.

    Then he tried a rock but he said’’ Too heavy’’.

    But then he tried sticks but they gave him scratches so he said’’ No way’’.

    Then he walked back and saw the jigsaw puzzle.

   And he said’’ Hey can you guys help me glue the jigsaw puzzle to my back’’? And they said’’ Yes’’ and Turtle had a shell.

            Then he found a hole It belonged to a polar bear, Panda went inside.

            Panda asked if he could spend the night.

            Polar bear said ‘’yes .’’                

          Panda came out  a few days later and when he did  he  was half white!

           So Panda decided to go to the Snow Spirit.It took a long time to get there because the Snow Spirit lived on top of a mountain.Finally Panda found his way. Panda said he wanted to be all black again but the Snow Spirit said no. Then panda realized that other animals  made fun  of  him, so this might be a good thing. When panda got back everybody liked his color and so did he. That’s why pandas are black and white.

     Their race track was at the edge of the forest to the end of the forest.They were going to run.  But Grassrunner knew a shortcut. When the race started Grassrunner took the shortcut and Snake took the right way.Soon Grassrunner won and beat Snake.

         “Good job Grassrunner”! said Bear.

         “You’re so fast”! said Deer.

     Animals were admiring Grassrunner. 

    Snake was very angry. But Snake didn’t know how Grassrunner won. So he put fire on Grassrunner’s feet because he was angry that Grassrunner won.The burn hurt so much he started to hop.

    Snake kept bothering animals and being now mean to them because he was still mad at Grassrunner. Now on to this day Grasrunner’s name changed to Grasshopper because he hops. He hops because the burn still hurts.

     “Sure” said Bunny.

     So the race began. “I  will beat you!” said Coyote in a position. The race ended and Bunny won!

     “This is an outrage!” said Coyote. “You Won’t  run anymore when I  eat you!” he shouted when he chased him.

      Bunny thought he lost him but then he jumped out from behind a rock and… “Ouch!” Bunny cried.  Coyote  bit  some of his tail but then  escaped  to his burrow. 

     “Grandma!” cried Bunny “My tail its, its gone!”

      “What did you…Bunny, what happened to your tail!?!” said Grandma.

       “Coyote bit it off!” said Bunny.

       “Wait” said Grandma. “There is still a little part!” She cried for joy.

     “Really?” said    Bunny. “Yea! cried Bunny. And that is why bunnies have short tails.

     So he did. But it didn’t work!! So he swam all the way to his other friend, Tim the tadpole. Tim said, “Try swimming in circles.”

     But that made him feel even worse. Then Tim had a good plan .It was “to go up to the spirits and tell them about your cold.”

     Tadpole said, “Why don’t you go I’m too much of a chicken.”

     “Oh” said, Tim. “Well I’m afraid I’ll break my fins. And anyway, I’m not the one with the cold you are.”

     Tadpole said, “but..but…Fine.”
     When he got up to the underwater spirit he asked to get rid of his cold. And that’s what the underwater spirit did. But also…..he made all the other tadpoles turn into frogs.

            So all the people in the village decided to vote on a color for the sky to turn .They picked blue.

            The sky said, “ The only way I will turn blue is if you say I am better than sun.”

            The people said,  “but we love the sun so much.”

            Finally the people agreed and they said, “ The sky is better than the sun.”

            All the people were so happy that the sky was blue.  So they   cheered   and  danced  for the sky  .Now  when  somebody says they like  the sun  better than the  sky  the sky rains and rains. When somebody   says they like the sky better than the sun it becomes a beautiful day.

   Then one day he was having a feast on a cow .Then out of nowhere he got a bone stuck in his throat and couldn’t get it out. First Tox pulled, then Rabbit pulled Foxes head and Fox said, “Hey get off my head!” 

“No. I am trying to help a friend here.”

 “But then coyote said, “Let me try to sing”. 

   So coyote tried to sing. He was horrible.  And from now on that is why coyotes howl at night.

        The tiger said, “ You elephant are small and tiny.”

              The elephant said,“No we’re not.  Maybe we will be bigger one day.”

         One elephant had a big appetite. So he ate a lot.  He was as big as a giraffe. All of the elephants did it, and they got so big.  The tiger did not tease the elephants anymore. That is how elephant got so big.
