WHY THE SNAKE IS SO LONG ?
A long time ago, there was a small snake which didn’t grow. He wanted to be long, so he was sad. He told his problem to his friends, but they laughed and said:
“We are small and and short, it’s alright!”
One day, when he went to look for a waterhole, two eagles flew over him! He wanted to hide but it was too late. The eagles caught him and fought to have him. The small snake was shaken in all directions. The fight was terrible. Suddenly, in their fight the eagles let go of t
he small snake. He quickly went to a hiding place.When the eagles left, he came out of his hiding place and went home. His friends looked at him with big eyes and said:
“You are not small!!!! You are long now!!”
And the snake saw his tail! He was surprised! He was not small any more, he was a beautiful long snake! He was so happy!
He became the king of all the snakes and that’s why snakes are long now!!!

Un jour un petit serpent fut la proie de deux aigles. Tiré et étiré c’est pour cela que les serpents sont longs de nos jours …
