On Safari

You’re in Botswana on a safari trip with your Dad and the park ranger. The days is hot and you fall asleep in the truck. You’re woken by Muugi, a thirsty meerkat who drinks all your water. You go to search for more water, meeting a tall giraffe, a roaring lion, a slithering snake and a stomping elephant – and they’re all thirsty! Will you find the watering hole?
