Snake is upset that he is slower than the other animals in the jungle. He slithers around across the ground and wiggles from his tail to his nose. He wishes he had feet so that he could jump and leap and run like the wind blows, and be as fast as the other jungle animals. Snake’s lifelong dream is to compete in an annual jungle race which he has never been able to do. But this time around, snake had an idea. An idea so brilliant that maybe, just maybe, his dreams might finally come true.
