Work days

The friends had gathered at the home of the Zig and Zag zebras.
– I know that each of you has an idea of ​​what it will be like when you grow up – Mrs. Zebra says - so I've been asking people if they would allow you to visit them for a day, to see what their profession is like.
– That's really cool! – Exclaims the dinosaur Dino.
- I wanna be a doctor. So, I'll be able to work with Dr. Cocoro?
– Yes, Dino! – smiles Mrs. Zebra. – And Giro, I bet you want to work with Captain Vacôncia.

– I've been thinking… I've decided that I never want to grow up – Horácio suddenly comments.
- And even? – everyone is surprised.
– É! I love to play, eat and laugh all day long. Why would I want to work?
- You are very funny! - Zig noticed. – You should be a clown!
- Yea! I can already imagine: Horacio, the clown! - Giro laughs. - I bet you would be very famous.
– And very rich! – Horacio adds, liking the idea.
– And we could visit you in your big house with lots and lots of toys! exclaims, in a thin voice, the Babi sheep.
- And, I'll be your captain of the private ferry! - I turn fully, bowing.
– And I'll take care of you when you get sick – Dino adds.
