    We had an awful school trip last week. Some students were late. Then we waited half an hour for the school bus, but it didn't arrive. Finally, our teacher took us to take the subway. It took over an hour. Then we walked a long way. When we arrived at the zoo, it was already 12:00. We were all tired and hungry. We wanted to see pandas, but there weren't any. There were some really smart dolphin（海豚）,but we didn't see the show because we arrived too late. We forgot our cameras, so we couldn't take any photos. Then it started to rain, and no one had an umbrella. We didn't see many animals because of the rain. So we went for lunch. We ate hamburgers. My friends also had some ice-cream. But I didn't have any, because I don't like it. I wanted French fries, but there weren't any in the shop. They were sold out! Finally we went back to school. We were wet, tired and stressed out. I didn't enjoy my school trip at all.

    Neel Sethi starred in Disney's cartoon The Jungle Book. The cartoon started being shown in theaters on April 15th. In this cartoon, Neel Sethi plays Mowgli, a boy growing up in the jungle with some wild wolves. When a big tiger named Shere Khan tries to kill him, Mowgli has to leave his wolf family. Along the way, Mowgli meets many animals. Some of them put him in danger, and others help him out of danger. Bill Murray, Lupita Nyong'o and Scarlett Johansson give their voices for the animals in the cartoon.

    In fact, Neel finished most of his parts in front of a blue screen. Later on, people put his parts with the animals and jungle pictures together. In the movie, Mowgli enjoys living with the bear, Baloo, very much. Mowgli stays on the top of Baloo as they play in a river and sing The Bare Necessities.

    "To do well in the movie, I ran and jumped around in my own time," Neel said. "So it really wasn't that hard to be Mowgli."

    Doctor Seuss was born in 1904

    In 1954, Life magazine published a report about school children who could not read well. The report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish. He hadn't received training in art. Yet, he drew pictures for most of his books.

    By the middle 1950s, Doctor Seuss had become one of the best-loved and most successful children's book writers in the world. His books were very popular with young readers. They enjoyed the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.

Children loved it. Their parents loved it too. The success of The Cat in the Hat made him want to write more books with very few words for children. In 1960, he wrote a book using less than fifty words. The book was called Green Eggs and Ham.

    In 1984. Doctor Seuss won a Pulitzer Prize. He was honoured for education and enjoyment that his books provided for American children and their parents.
