NAME:

around the island

The entire village is on the dock today.
“Giro, you did a great job naming our raft,” says Mr. Horse, the mayor. “You got a ferry ride around the entire firefly island today.
Tonight you will sleep at the camp. Captain Vacôncia will bring you home tomorrow morning.
– lupiy! – Giro, the giraffe, screams and climbs aboard the Tinkerbell.
– lupiy! – shout Giro's little friends too. Because? Because they and their whole family are going too!

– Our first stop is at the picnic shelter, for a nice snack – Captain Vacôncia informs, she blows the whistle. They leave!
They go swimming and then eat sandwiches.
– Next stop: campsite! - Captain Vacôncia shouts. And they depart with the roar of the engine.
– I can see the camp! - Giro soon yells.
They set up tents among the trees.
“Let's play hide and seek while moms and dads cook dinner,” Giro suggests.
The little friends have a lot of fun playing in the middle of the trees.
- Dinner time! - screams the mother giraffe. Fire-roasted food tastes delicious.
– It's almost dark. Let's tell ghost stories around the campfire,” Mr. Dino says.
The stories are a little scary, but funny.
– It was a great day, but… Ahhhh, I'm tired!
– Yawns Giro. - He bends down to enter the tent and falls asleep in a second.
