Chapter 3 - Not even the frogs (4)

Let’s get into the boat, hurry!

We survived. And we learnt an important lesson: Don’t ever build too near to a river! Heavy rains can provoke floods and wipe out weak constructions. Fortunately, the school was well built. But it needed some repairs that would take time.

What are we going to do now?

Why don’t we go for an excursion?

In the mountains is not raining much!

We need permission from your parents.

They know that we are safe with you, Miss Elphi.

All right, I’ll talk to them!

Yes! We are going to the mountains!

I managed to convince all parents that an excursion would help the children forget the scare of the flood. So we all became very excited with the trip. But no one imagined what was going to happen.
