NAME:

Mr. Horse's hair

Mr. Horse has started to lose hair and is not enjoying it. He has heard of a magical oil that goes on the head and makes hair grow back. So she placed an order for this oil last week. It should be arriving today on the ferry from Ilha Grande.
“Hello, Mr. Horse,” says Giraffe Giro, who loves to watch the ferry arrive. – Are you going to Ilha Grande?
“No, there's an order for me at Tink today,” he replies, a little embarrassed.

– Oh, what is it? – Spin asks curiously.
'Um, some hair oil,' says Mr Horse.
Giro looks at Mr. Horse's head and sees that there isn't much hair there.
– Do you really need this? he asks, not realizing that Mr. Horse is feeling uncomfortable.
– Well, it's a special hair oil. It's for… to make the hair grow back – stammers Mr. Horse, blushing a little.
'Oh, I see,' says Giro, starting to understand and feeling sorry for him. – I… ah… I hope it works! – says Giro.
'Me too,' says Mr. Horse, arranging what's left of his hair in the breeze.
Just then, Captain Vacôncia blows the Tinker Bell's whistle. The ferry does. She hands Mr. Horse a small package and says:
- For you!
Mr. Horse runs home to try the magic oil on his hair.
"I hope it really works out for him!" Giro thinks, shaking his head as he watches Mr. Horse trot away.
