NAME:

a big disappointment

This morning, when the sun rises, the monkey Ivo is doing some dance moves on the dock. He could barely sleep last night.
I have to catch that giant fish again,” he mutters to himself, rubbing his hands together.
Ivo had invited Senhor Cavalo, the mayor, to come along. Mr. Horse is coming now.
- I'm excited! – Mr. Horse says. – I brought my camera, just in case.

Ivo's things are already loaded onto his rowboat.
Mr. Horse puts his fishing pole, lunch bag and camera inside the boat.
– I really hope you find that giant fish again! – Mr. Horse says.
- Me either! - Ivo laughs. - Let's get going.
– Where did you catch that giant fish? – the mayor asks as they paddle away from the port.
Ivo smiles a little shyly.
- I did something that tells me exactly where he is. That way it will be easy to find him.
- And even? And how are you sure where he is?” asks Mr. Horse, surprised.
“It's very simple, actually,” Ivo says proudly.
“I painted this x exactly where the fish was when my line snapped,” he says, pointing to the big black x beside the boat.
Mr. Horse is startled, then smiles.
“Ivo is a mad scientist after all” he thinks.
- Good luck! – he says gently, shaking his head.
