The explorers

The golden apple

Buster. Buster, what’s the matter?

Lucy, look, a snake. It bit Buster. Let’s take him to the village. It’s not far.

Let’s go now. Come on.

Can you help us? A snake bit our dog.

He’s very ill. Have you got any medicine?

No, but go to the old man in the hut next to the big tree. He can help you.

Take your dog to the top of the mountain.

There’s a waterfall there. Above it, there’s a tree with a golden apple. Your dog has to eat that apple.

Quick. I want to get to that apple first.

We don’t want Buster to get better!

Look Ben, there are Horax and Zelda.

Look at the tree. It’s Horax and Zelda.

Hey, Horax. Stop!

Do you want any help, Horax?

No. I think I’ve got it.

Horax, you fool!

Thanks for the apple, Horax!

Lucy, look. There’s a letter.

It’s an I, Ben. It’s our first letter.

Shall we write it in the book?

Good idea.

Bye, Horax. Bye, Zelda.

And thanks again for the apple.

You kids. Just you wait!
