NAME:

It's raining green tomatoes!

All over the village yesterday, hard green tomatoes fell from the sky.
Some have reached the top of the roofs – Plaft! – and slipped to the ground. Some have fallen – Plaf! – on the sidewalks. One hit – Poin! – on the town hall clock.
Another fell jumping - Toin! Toin! Toin! – down the main street, scaring the residents who walked there. And a Poft! – hit Mr. Horse on the head. The damage done to his hair was incalculable.

– Are they coming from outer space? – asks the solar toucan, serving coffee in the cafeteria.
- What can we do? - asks the I do when people pick up mail at the post office.
– How can such a thing happen? – everyone wants to know.
The monkey Ivo slept late that morning. He is slowly waking up, tired but happy from his latest experience. He decides to go to the cafeteria for breakfast.
"But what's going on?" he thinks when he sees the villagers talking and gesturing over the news on the wall.
– Look what a mess! – Mr. Ptero says, indicating all those green things lying around. He sees Ivo approaching the group.
– Hey, Ivo, you're a scientist. Can you tell us what happened here yesterday? - he asks.
– I… Er, I have no idea! – Ivo swallows dry.
He runs home, quite disconcerted.
