Artur’s happy memory
My name’s Artur. My family and I have a small house with a garden. I have
only one cousin.
His name’s Otto. He’s a really kind person and he likes helping people.
I remember one day when I was five years old. Otto came round to visit but I
wasn’t happy.
I wanted to climb the tree in the garden, but I couldn’t. I tried and tried, but
the tree
was too big. So I was really cross.
Otto smiled when he saw me and said, ‘Don’t be upset, I know how you can
get up into the tree! Do you really want to do it?’
‘Yes, I do!’ I shouted.
‘OK,’ said Otto, ‘I have a good idea! Can you stand on my shoulders if I hold
your legs?’
‘Yes, I can!’ I shouted.
So Otto helped me to get into the tree and sit on a branch. Then he climbed
into the tree

The thorny devil lizard
Thorny devil lizards live in deserts in Australia. They can’t get water to drink
with their mouths. They use their feet and their skin instead!
There isn’t much water in the desert, but the sand is a little bit wet in the
evening and in the morning. Thorny devil lizards can stand in the wettest
sand and put some of the wet sand
on their backs, too. The water goes through the lizards’ feet and skin to their
mouths and
then the lizards can drink.
Some other animals can hold water in their skins, but they can’t move water
