Dona, the donkey, lives in a village. He likes the way his friends bray. But he cannot do it the right way.

There is a singing contest in the car festival. “What will I do?”, thinks Dona. “Let me ask my friends!” Dona goes out to see.

“How do you grunt, Piggy?” Dona asks Piggy the pig. “Simple! Roll right… Roll left… Then lift your nose…” ”Khngrrr!” Dona cannot do that.

“How do you bleat, Shanu?” Dona asks Shanu, the sheep. “I flick my tail. Jump up and down and then shout”, “Baa… Baa…” Dona cannot do that.

“How do you neigh, Harry?” Dona asks Harry the horse. “I shake my tail, keep my ears straight and say…” “Neigh!” No, Dona cannot do that.

“How do you snort, Buffy?” Dona asks Buffy, the buffalo. "I sway my head from side to side, open my mouth wide, and shout.” “Mrrrrr!” Oh no! Dona cannot do that too.

“What will I do next week?”, Dona is worried.

Dona comes home and listens to his mom bray, “Heee… Haaan…”

He stands in front of the mirror. He shakes his ears from left to right. He opens his mouth and lets out a cry… “Heee… Haaan…” “Hey! I can sing… I can sing.”

Dona’s song is the best in the car festival.

Wonderful Sea

By the deep blue sea, what do we see?

Diving dolphins above the waves,

Crawling crabs near the rocks,

Many many rocks like tiny caves.

What do you see in the deep blue sea?

Starfish swimming over the reefs,

Whistling whales in the water,

Sea horses moving straight and tall.

What else do we see in the blue sea?

Moving turtles on the sandy beach,

Many many waves rolling to the shore,

We see all these and more in the blue sea.

Note to the teacher: Sing the song with actions. Encourage children to listen and do the actions first, then follow the song with the teacher.
