NAME:

magic figures

Of course, on this beautiful sunny morning, the three of them can't wait to spread the word. They're all in hiding.
- See this! – Sheep Babi says.
She and the zebras Zig and Zag show the others blank sheets of paper.
– What is it for us to see? – asks the hippopotamus Horace.
– Now, nothing, but there really is something to see.
It's drawn in invisible ink! – Babi whispers mysteriously.
– How can you see the design? – Giro the giraffe asks confused.

The snake Silvia takes a sheet of paper and walks into the sunlight. She holds the paper close to her eyes.
“I can't see anything,” she mutters. She keeps looking at the paper, wondering what secret there could be.
“Wait a minute,” she tells herself. – Is this a figure starting to appear?
In a few moments, the figure becomes sharper. It's a funny face, painted in light brown. With each passing minute, the figure gets darker.
– It must be the sunlight that makes the invisible paint turn brown! – she exclaims. Soon, friends are laughing at the other cartoons.
They all rush home to make their own drawings with invisible ink.
