    Once upon a time, there was a little girl named 

Anna who knew just about everything about 

anything, or so she thought. Her friends believed 

her to be a genius, so they nicknamed her 

"Anna the Expert." 

    One day when Anna's school went on a field trip 

to the zoo, all her classmates looked to her for the

answers to all their questions about zoo life. 

   First, they walked by the monkey cages.

       "Wow. Look at that cool monkey!" Shouted Alexis 

       "He sure has a strange tale. I don't think I've ever 

    seen a tale that long." Alexis laughed.

       "That's because it's not a tale, Alexis. It's a water   hose." 

     Anna calmly stated.

       "A water hose?" Questioned Alexis. "But, why would a

    monkey have a water hose instead of a tail?" 

       "To water his banana trees, of course. You see, 

    monkeys like lots of bananas, and bananas 

    need a lot of water, so monkeys have built-in water hoses 

    to water their banana trees." Anna explained.

       "Oh, I see." Alexis replied. "That makes sense." 

Then they walked over to the elephants.

     "Look Anna! What are those white things coming 

out of the elephant's nose?" Ally asked.

     "Oh? those things?" Said Anna. "Well, those are 

white spikes." 

     "Why do they have white spikes?" Ally asked.

     "Well elephants enjoy milk and that's where they 

store all of it. The spikes are really clear, you see, the 

milk in them makes them look white." Answered 

Anna. 

     "Wow Anna. You sure are smart. You know 

everything!" Ally proclaimed. 

     "Yes, Anna, you are the smartest person I know."

Then they went to see the giraffes. 

     "Look Anna! What are those things are on top of 

the giraffe's head?" Ally asked. Without hesitation, 

Anna answered Ally and told her exactly what they 

were.

     "Why those are antennas, Ally." Anna proclaimed.

     "But why does a giraffe need antennas?" Asked 

Ally.

     "Didn't you know that giraffes like to listen to 

music? They can hear music from far away with those 

antennas." Claimed Anna.

     "Wow. Do they like to dance, too?" Ally asked.

     "Well, maybe when no one is around." Remarked

Anna.
