The Hungriest Little Meerkat

Deep in the African savanna, where the golden grass danced in the warm breeze and acacia trees stretched their branches toward the endless sky, lived a little meerkat cub named Kobe. Kobe was the most curious and hungriest little meerkat in his entire clan, and he spent his days happily feasting on every tasty thing he could find, from crunchy beetles that scurried under rocks to sweet wild berries that hung from thorny bushes, from juicy grubs that wiggled in the soft earth to the occasional fallen mango that rolled down from the trees where the monkeys played.

Kobe's mama always said he had the biggest appetite and the tiniest patience of any meerkat she'd ever known. "That little one would eat the clouds if he could climb that high," she would chuckle, watching Kobe chase after grasshoppers with his tiny paws and his pink tongue hanging out.
