Tortoise and a dog play – level 1

13-04-2015 15:00

This news is about two animals. One animal is a tortoise. It is eight years old. The other animal is a dog. It is three years old.

The animals live together. They like to play. They play chase. The owner of the animals films them. She puts the video on the Internet. It becomes very popular.

Check out the video! It is very nice.

Difficult words: chase (a game when people or animals run and try to catch each other), owner (the person who has the animals), check out (to see).

You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.
