Chapter
One – The Mystery Begins
Once
upon a time there was a panda named Bamboo who was six months old.
He was as small as a big rock, and weighed 60 pounds. Since he loved
to eat bamboo, that is why his parents, Mei Xing and Ting Ting, named
him Bamboo.
One
day he scampered outside searching for bamboo in the mini bamboo
field. When he arrived, there was no bamboo. The grass was black
and dry. “What a mystery,” he whispered to himself. He did not
know what had happened. He was very scared. He clumsily staggered
back home to tell his parents what had happened, but they were not
there. He cautiously looked around the house, but it was destroyed.
Chapter
Two – Finding Evidence
Finally
Bamboo found his parents. They were asleep. He was still very
frightened, because he thought they might be dead. He wanted to cry,
but he knew he was too old to cry. His mom, Mei Xing, had always
taught him to control his temper.
When
his mom woke up she consoled him and happily hugged him with a great
big bear hug. He was not sad anymore. He was happy. Then he told
his mom about the mystery. She explained that farmers set fire to
the pandas' field, because they were angry at the zoo keepers for
planting bamboo on their crops.
Chapter
Three – The Mystery Solved
“Then
why was the house destroyed?” Bamboo wondered.
“The
zoo keeper tried to give us our shots” Mei Xing answered. “So we
ran around the house until we destroyed it. Does that solve your
mystery?”
“Yes
it does” agreed Bamboo.
Right
then Ting Ting, his dad, woke up and sleepily mumbled, “Where is the
bamboo flavored cake?”
Everyone
laughed and lived happily ever after.
The
End
