But some were also sad because their friends had moved to another school. Everyone shared stories about their summer vacation.

Just then, the bell rang and all students went to the school ground. Principal Leo lion welcomed them and introduced their new teacher Garry giraffe who would be the class teacher of grade 6.

Upon hearing this, the students from grade 6 clapped loudly.

After the assembly, the children went to their respective classrooms. But there was a lot of commotion in class 6. All the children were eagerly waiting for their new teacher to come to the class to know what he will be like.

Garry introduced himself again in class and asked everyone to introduce themselves, too. When it was Monty monkey's turn. There were some scratch marks on his neck. Seeing those marks, Garry asked curiously, "Monty, how did you get these marks on your neck?"

Elmo elephant immediately replied, "Sir, Monty was caught by a leopard."

"Hey, how did that happen, Monty?" Garry asked.

Monty began narrating, "Sir, one day, I went to the farm with my mother. There's a sugarcane field near our farm..."

Monty had just started narrating when Garry asked him to come in the front and narrate it to the full class.

"Yes, Monty, we all want to hear how you and your mother fought that dangerous panther," said Roro rabbit, already knowing a little about the story.
