The Frightened Lion

Reading Text

One night, Lion is getting ready to sleep. Suddenly, he hears a strange sound: 'Tap, tap, tap.' He is very afraid! He thinks there is a monster outside the window. Lion wants to protect himself, so he puts on a bicycle helmet and holds a baseball bat. He hides under his bed with a blanket over his head. However, it is not a monster. It is a little frog! The frog is wearing tap shoes and dancing. The lion's imagination made him scared for no reason.
