Last Friday, Mike and his dad visited the wildlife park
in Ohio. Mike was most excited to see the tigers, but as
soon as he spied them, he became frightened. (Mike is just
five.) His dad tried to quiet him, but Mike started crying
and would not stop. He was terrified of the tigers! At last,
Mike’s dad asked Mike if he’d like to see the pythons. Mike
nodded and his sobs subsided. He was quiet as he and his
dad tried to find the pythons, but once they found them,
Mike started smiling and chatting up a storm.
