Once upon a time there was a green snake who want to play but everyone the snake went near ran away.

He tried to find some other snakes to with. He found some beside a tree.
“Will you play with me?” asked the green snake.

“No we don’t like you because you are green” they said.
The snakes went away leaving the green snake behind.

The green snake cried his way home. He wasn’t watching where he was going and he bumped into a big gorilla.

The gorilla had been sitting under a tree, sad because he had no one to play with.

“I’m sorry” said the green snake.
“Will you play with me?” said the gorilla.
The green snake smiled and said “Yes I’ll play with you”


So the gorilla and the green snake became best friends and played happily ever after.

The end.
