Zigzog flew from one tree to
another. His feathers were all colors and his beak was yellow. Zigzog had
no friends. Nobody wanted to be near a bird with so many colors of
feathers.
When the sun rose, Zigzog sat in the
tree singing, "Zig Zog Zig Zog Zig Zog." His gaze went from a stone on the
grass to a big green egg. "Zig zog?"
He flew down to it and pecked at it
with his beak. "Zig Zog. Zig Zog. Zig Zog." He looked to the left and he
looked to the right. Nobody came to get the egg. It was his! He jumped up
on top of it and sat there all day and night singing to it. "Zig Zog Zig
Zog Zig Zog." The next day he sat on the egg and sang to it once more, but
at night he fell asleep.
When he woke up the next morning, he
saw a crack in the egg. "Zig Zog?" He jumped to the ground to see the
crack.
Suddenly a big nose poked from the
egg. "Zig Zog! Zig Zog! Zig Zog!"
The head, legs and tail broke
through the cracked shell. A very big dinosaur stepped onto the grass and
looked at Zigzog. The bird tipped its head to the left and then to the
right. "Zig Zog?"
The dinosaur picked the bird up in
his hand and put him on top of its head. "ZIG ZOG!" The dinosaur roared.
From then on Zigzog and ZIGZOG went
every where together singing songs. Zigzog did not need any more friends.
He had ZIGZOG. |
