I am a giraffe.

I have a long spoted neck as big as a trunk

I make no sound.

I am as soft as a blaket.

I eat leaves plants.

I drink water.

I galup like the wind.

My head is small but my neck is long.

I’m a shark. I have smooth skin. I have dark black eyes. I scrape my sharp teeth on hard rocks. My gills go swish, swish when air goes through. I love the taste of fish. I’m as fast as lightning. My fins shake. I look like sideways socks.

I am a hamster.

I am black and small.

I am silent and furry.

I am soft and I eat oats.

I have little paws that are already sharp

I have biting noises when I eat.

I am a furball.

I sleep all day and I crawl a lot.

My eyes are dark and black.

I am like a beard on my Dad’s chin.

I have long white whiskers that are

very pointy and sharp as knifes.

I am a snake that sworms    1

If I was a animal I would scratch my

fluffy ears. I would crunch on some greens. I will

be as shy as kitten. I climb the trees like

grip on a tree.

I am a scary lion that

hunts when its night. I

make a terriffing sound

raaaaarh! I sneek up on

my prey from the damp ground. Then I pounce

and eat. Sometimes I wait

till my prey passes by.

The rabbit is my favorite

meal. But the rabbit is

aware and sly.

I am a black and white Gorilla. I have a flat nose and

long arms and short legs. I have a bad smell. I am furry as a carpet.

I eat bananas. Oh, ah ah,ah ah!

I skip on a vine to one tree to another. I bang my chest.

I have small brown hands fat strong bamboo.

I am as big as a car.

I’m an alligator

I’m an alligator

I’m as green as grass

I have the tail as long as a ocen

My feet are as small as a toe nale

I gggggr when I am going to cronch food

the water I live in is mudey and dampy

When I touch the rocks I drip in the

The meat I eat of big fish oow it is the greatest

even a zebra is better

When I bit the animal blood rushes out into the water

I am a beagle

I bark at neighbors

and go bambusluly (lazily)

back to my owner.

I am brown, with white spots

on my stomace. I’m lazy I don’t

bother to get up. I am lazy. But

when my owner comes to me he rubs

my stomache
