NAME:

Zeca the singer

From an early age, Zeca neighed loudly in his straw bed. Mom spoke in his ear:
– Zequinha, my child, bray softly!
Zeca didn't know how to bray softly. He just wanted to sing a beautiful song that would lead him to success. No one around him, however, believed that.
– But they don't know anything! – Zeca complained.

One day, a circus set up in the neighboring town. The person responsible for the presentations was looking for animals for the show.

– A donkey that sings! – he said to Zeca. – I will teach you music and you will become famous.
– At last I was recognized! yelled Zeca.
Indeed, success was on the way. Her mother was proud of her son. She let him go with the circus, no sadness. Good luck, Zeca.
