Summary Talking about animals

Yesterday, I went to watch the new show of my favourite elephant Ellie at the zoo. She’s very smart. They trained her to do lots of things like drawing pictures and playing football. She drew a really beautiful picture of her parrot friend yesterday too. My favourite part of the show was when she

stood on her back feet and raised her front feet up high while her trainer was standing on her back. That was one of their new dance moves! I really loved it! I also heard that Ellie saved a little boy’s life last year. He was falling off the stadium when she grabbed him with her trunk just in time. Isn’t she amazing?!
