NAME:
– A weather machine could make the weather sunny at any time – Monkey Ivo dreams awake, looking out the window.
– What makes a hot and sunny day? – He asks, frowning.
– Aha! - He exclaims. - The sun! So I need to find an extra sun and make it warm up here.
He picks up an empty yellow balloon. He quickly fills the balloon with helium gas. It gets huge and goes up to the ceiling.
– Aha! – Ivo exclaims again. Then he turns the heater on full. Soon he is sweating and hot at maximum. Soon he is sweaty and terribly hot.
- Perfect! Just like an August day! - He thinks.
However, as it gets hotter and hotter, he starts to feel dizzy. Suddenly, he falls off the stool and hits his head on the floor!
The hippopotamus Horacio is passing by and hears the noise. He runs to Ivo's lab.
– Ivo, it's turning an oven here! - He exclaims. Ivo struggles to get up.
– I… I'm fine. I'm seeing a lot of stars,” he mutters, massaging his head.
– I was having a warm and sunny weather, you know? – He explains, pointing to the yellow balloon.
Horacio smiles. Ivo doesn't say thing after thing, but this is normal.
“I think you'd better come outside and get some fresh air,” Horacio says, smiling. – You almost fried like a potato!
