A Visit to the Singapore Zoo - an essay by Elijah Wee 9-MAY 2010

Sally and I went to the zoo yesterday. We say many animals in the zoo. There were a lion, a zebra, a tiger and a horse. We also watched a show. We had a fun day at the zoo. I wish I can go there again. ~the end~ inspired today (sans mistakes corrected by my Dad), Elijah Wee signing off from Singapore disclosure: hope Singapore Zoo does not mind I use your website background screen!
