        “Mother, what is a land?” Baby Fish asked Mother Fish.       

        “May I go and Find out?”.   

        But his mother would not let him go. Baby Fish was very disappointed. He did not like to eat and play. Mother Fish was afraid Baby Fish might die so she permitted him to go. Baby Fish was very happy, but his Mother was very sad. Baby Fish swam and swam. Soon he became hungry. He saw one live shrimp. He caught the shrimp and was about to swallow it when he felt a tug in his mouth. He tightened his bite on the shrimp. But he felt he was pulled upward faster and faster.     

      “This shrimp must be very strong,” thought Baby Fish.   

       He was now frightened. He opened his mouth to let the shrimp go but it was stuck in his mouth. He struggled to set himself free but the pull upward was strong. Then he felt himself being lifted out of the water and being tossed on land.
