Features: Every day when I go to school, Dad always tells me, "Open your eyes wide, see what you can see." But when I say where and what I see, he scolds me fiercely, "Your eyes are too sharp!" "Don’t give me tall tales. Don’t call a little fish a whale." So today, what can I tell him when I get home? On my way to school, on my way back home, I keep looking and looking, not missing a thing. But besides my two feet, what did I see? Only on Street, I saw a horse pulling a cart. Is there really anything to talk about? Of course not, I can’t say it like this: I saw a broken cart, and a horse was dragging it. That’s not the story I want to tell. It’s time to think hard. What should I say is that the one pulling the cart is a zebra! If I say I saw a zebra pulling a cart on Street, that’s a real story, and no one can beat me.
