Cute Little Cubs and a Big Daddy Lion
Tony had seen a lot of things, but he had never seen anything so cute! There were four little lion cubs playing in the clearing in the middle of the jungle. They were just adorable. One of them was sleeping in the sunshine, one was stalking a butterfly and the other two were wrestling near the edge of the trees. Tony did not think about where they came from or that they might be part of a family.
The cubs were the children of James a big happy lion who lived nearby in the jungle. James loved his cubs more than anything and would do whatever he had to do to protect them and keep them safe. He had no idea that his precious cubs were about to be "cub-napped"!
Tony called to the cubs and offered them a treat. When the cubs got close to him, he grabbed them and put them in his car. He was so happy to have some cute little lion cubs for pets.
When James went looking for his cubs at lunchtime, he couldn't find them. He roared and roared, but they did not roar back like they always did. James was very worried and very upset. He immediately got in touch with his friend Lizzie, a sweet lady who happened to be Tony's wife. She had just gotten home and discovered that Tony had found the cubs and brought them home, when James called about the missing babies.
Lizzie told James that the cubs were at her house. James wanted to know how they got there and she said, "I'll tell you when you get here." James immediately ran all the way to Lizzie's home and found the cubs. While he was on the way there, Lizzie told Tony that the cubs were part of a family and that he shouldn't have taken them from the jungle. Tony was sorry he had made James afraid.
When James got to the house, the cubs ran to him and hugged him. They told him about their adventure riding in the car with Tony and about having snacks with him. Tony apologized to James and told him that he never thought about the cubs belonging to a family. James told Tony that it was okay, and he told his kids to never, ever go with a stranger, even a nice one. The cubs promised that they would not ever do that again.
Tony and Lizzie invited James and his cubs to come back and visit again, and they did. They all became good friends.
What will Tony, Lizzie, James and the cubs do next? Why don't you write the next adventure?
