ŠKRATEK SE POTEPA PO LJUBLJANI

»Joj, zmaj, koliko živali je tukaj v živalskem vrtu. Saj vidim opice, leve, zebre, tigre, žirafe, medvede, ptice in

še kače, ki se jih jaz kar malo bojim!« »Ja, ja, škratek, tukaj so čudovite živali, ki jih hranijo samo skrbniki,

otroci pa sploh ne, saj jih lahko tudi prestrašijo. Pa bonbončkov tudi ne smejo metati živalim v kletke! No,

zdaj pa pridi, zapri oči, da te odpeljem na prav posebno mesto v živalskem vrtu.« »Vavvvv, kako visok tobogan,

pojdiva zmajček, se greva spuščat! Uuu, kako leti!« Celo popoldne sta gledala živali in se igrala. Proti večeru

je škratek rekel: »O, zmajček, kako sem utrujen od potepanja po Ljubljani. Najraje bi se ulegel v svojo

škratovo posteljo in poslušal pravljico, ki mi jo vsak večer pove moja mamica.«

»Oh, Dragon, how many animals are here in the Zoo. I can see monkeys, lions, zebras, tigers, giraffes, and

also bears, birds, and snakes which I am a bit afraid of!« »Yes, yes, little Elf, here are wonderful animals which

can be fed only by the zoo keepers, not the children, because they can become afraid of them. Also the sweets

mustn’t be thrown to the animals in cages! Well, come on now, close your eyes, so that I can take you to a very

special place in the Zoo. « »Wow, how tall the slide is, let’s go Dragon, down the slide! Oh, how fast we are! «

They spent the whole afternoon watching animals and playing. When the evening was approaching, the little

Elf said: »O little Elf, how tired I am from exploring Ljubljana. I would like nothing more than to lie in my elf-

size bed and listen to the fairy-tale which my mummy tells me every evening. «
