The rivers in the jungle are nearly empty but they are soon full of<br />
water. Mouse starts to run quickly but elephant can only run slowly.<br />
The hill seems very far away but it is soon close enough to climb.<br />
‘We’re safe!’ squeaks mouse.<br />
‘Yes’, trumpets elephant. ‘Time for a long, hot shower!’<br />
‘Or a short bath!’ replies mouse.<br />
And they both grin.<br />
