Mr. Zebra panted the front part of himself green like the lizard ,and Mrs. Zebra panted the black part of herself a tan color,like a lion. Mr. Zebra didn't like the way that Mrs. Zebra looked. Mrs. Zebra also didn't like the way that Mr. Zebra looked. So they talked about it and decided they like black, as their color. Mrs. and Ms. Zebra panted the front part black of themself and creaded a stripes. When they arrive at the party everyone loved their new outfit. The day after the party,at the mornig soon all the Zebras were painting them selves in stripes. After awhile Mr. and Mrs. Zebra got tried of stripes. But when they tried to wash off their stripes they found that the paint had sunk beyond their fur. They couldn't get anything for it. Soon also all the Zebras started getting tried of stripes. This is why a Zebra has stripes.
