NAME:

And what do you want to be?

Giraffe Giro, dinosaur Dino and hippopotamus Horacio are talking about what they want to be when they grow up.
– Did you hear that Zig and Zag's mother is going to help us visit people who have the professions we would like to have when we grow up? - Asks Giro. – That means we need to choose some kind of profession.
– I love food – laughs Horacio – So, maybe, someday I'll really be able to learn how to cook. And I could work in a cafeteria, like the Frili penguin and Solar toucan.

“In my case,” replies Giro, “if I could do anything, I would be a ferry captain, like Captain Vacôncia. She does have a really cool job. I bet it's really hard to dock the ferry without hitting the dock. He makes a loud crashing sound.
Dino has been thinking a lot. He is very nice. And he is finding the garden project with his grandfather a lot of fun. He likes to see the plants growing healthy.
- I'm not sure yet. Maybe some kind of helping profession… Who knows if I could be a doctor like Dr. Cocoro? – He surprises himself and others when he says that.
– Let's tell Mrs. Zebra and see what happens – says Giro – Whatever it is, it will be fun!
They jump on their bikes and ride off to the zebra family's house.
