Long, long ago, there was
a thick green jungle. All
animals lived there happily.
There was a parrot called
Perry, a squirrel called Serry,
a monkey called Merry, a
bear called Berry, a deer
called Derry and a fox
called Ferry.
They also went to school.
Their teacher was called
Mizz Zenny Zebra. She
taught them all the
subjects.
Let’s sing together.
Serry and Derry ran in a hurry,
Merry and Berry found the
berries
Perry and Ferry ate the cherries!

One day, Berry Bear brought a beautiful
brown bag to school. His friends liked
it very much. Perry Parrot said, “Berry!
Berry! What a beautiful bag you have!”
4
Merry Monkey said, “Berry! Berry! I like
your bag.”
Ferry Fox did not say anything.
“What a nice bag Berry Bear has! I wish
it was mine,” Ferry Fox thought.
5
The next day, after teaching
them the alphabet, Miss Zenny
Zebra told her students, “You can
go outside and play.”
Merry Monkey, Berry Bear and Perry
Parrot ran to the playground. They
asked Ferry Fox to join them.
“I have a stomach ache, I cannot play. I
am going home,” Ferry Fox said.

Ferry did not go home. When he was
alone in the class, he stole Berry Bear’s
bag and ran away.
8
When Berry
went back
to the class,
he found
that his bag
was missing.
He began to
cry.
“Big bag!
Brown bag!
Where is
my bag?
Big bag!
Beautiful
bag! Where
is my bag?”

Derry Deer and Serry Squirrel told him,
“Berry! Do not cry! We will find your
bag.”
10
The next day, Ferry Fox came to the
school with the bag.
On seeing his bag, Berry Bear shouted,
“Here is my bag!”
But Ferry jumped in anger, “No! It is my
bag! I bought it from the shop yesterday.”
Berry felt very sad.
11
Suddenly,
a small rat
jumped out
of the bag.
Her name
was Richy
Rat. She
squeaked,
“No! Ferry
is lying!
He stole
Berry’s bag
yesterday. I
was hiding
in the bag
when he
took it to his
house.”

Uh! Uh!
Hearing this, Ferry hung his head in
shame.
Miss Zenny Zebra then told Ferry Fox,
“Ferry! You should never steal and you
should never tell lies!”
15
Hip! Hip! Hurray!
Ferry said sorry!
Berry, Derry and Serry danced in merry!
