Everyone was out. The father, the mother and the two children were busy going to the shops.
Meanwhile, there was something moving slowly inside. It slithered down and writhed around the house. People craned outside, looking at the house.
A little later the father, mother and the two children came home, wondering who was looking in their window. ‘Please go away,’ said the father.
But what had happened?
They heard a noise as they opened the door, but none of them were worried.
‘Oh, there he is. Look!’
‘He managed to get out.’
The two children carefully picked him up.
‘Come, Henry, back in the tank.’
It was only the huge and lovely snake. He’s a beautiful boa.
