The Picnic (end of the story)

Hello friends!
You remember, don't you?
Now we have the end of the story.
If you want you can have a look at the Portuguese version.




George lived with his mum and dad and his big sister Bethany.
It was George's 7th birthday and he was given a book called "Art Attack". He had a poster of his favourite football team, England, and a computer game. It was a really hot day and mum said:
- We are all going on a picnic!
George and Bethany cheered and were really excited:
- You're the best mum and dad, "fanjollytastic".
Mum made ham sandwiches and lemon cakes. She put everything in a picnic basket. Everyone got into the car and drove to the park where they found a place to have their picnic.
While George was eating his sandwich he saw a poster saying "Come to Billy's circus".
- Can we go mum? - George asked.
They all decided to go and have a look at the poster and, when they returned a few minutes later, they all had a fright. Eating their sandwiches was a grizzly bear.
- What are we going to do? - George cried.

- Stay calm my son. - said mum.
- I know what we should do. - added daddy.
- What!? What!? - asked Bethany.
But, before daddy could answer, the bear made a strange noise and started looking in a strange way at the sandwich. He threw it in the air and George understood that the bear could be vegetarian and shouted:
- This bear is V-E-G-E-T-A-R-I-A-N!
- Are you crazy or what? - shouted Bethany - A vegetarian bear? Where has this type of animal been seen before?
- It can be true. - said a calmed down mum.
- George watches a lot of TV. Maybe he is right. Could it happen that there are vegetarian bears? - added daddy.

What they did not know was that the bear was from a circus.
They asked the bear:
- Where do you live?
The bear said:
- In the circus-
- We will take you back there then.
They took the bear to the circus and he was soon scoffing fruit . They left him there back in his home where he was happy.
When the children arrived home they went to bed and dreamt about the bear.
