Son : Mommy, can I buy some peanuts?
Mother : What for?
Son : To feed the monkeys.
Mother : No. Feeding is forbidden here.
Son : Why?
Mother : Because it spoils the animals.
Son : Is that true, Daddy?
Father : Yes, and sometimes the monkeys may have digestion problems if they eat too many peanuts.
Son : It won't be any fun if I can't feed them.
Father : This zoo is huge. It may take four or five hours just to walk it through.
Mother : Do you' think little Tommy can walk by himself that long?
Father : I don't know, but I certainly won't have the strength to carry him in my arms when be gets tired.
Mother : What should we do then?
Father : They have baby carriages for rent at the entrance.Shall we get one for little Tommy?
Son : I don't need a baby carriage. I'm three years old now. I can walk by myself.
Mother : I know you can, but just in case. OK?
