Grumpy the Gator

Living in the Lowcountry gives opportunity to see many kinds of wildlife. While playing outside, friends notice an alligator swimming in the pond across the street. Deciding not to get close to the water, the friends run home to alert the adults. Parents see the alligator and remind everyone to stay away from the pond. The children decide to name the gator Grumpy the Gator because of the grouchy look he gives them when swimming away.God created alligators, too. We need to be safe and stay away from the gators. They want to be left alone.In Grumpy the Gator, we are reminded to be careful around alligators. Always tell an adult when we see a gator.
