One
morning
a
mosquito
saw
an
iguana
drinking
at
a
waterhole.
The
mosquito
said,
“Iguana,
you
will
never
believe
what
I
saw
yesterday.”
“Try
me,”
said
the
iguana.
The
mosquito
said,
“I
saw
a
farmer
digging
yams
that
were
as
big
as
I
am.”
“What’s
a
mosquito
compared
to
a
yam?”
snapped
the
iguana
grumpily.
“I
would
rather
be
deaf
than
listen
to
such
nonsense!”
Then
he
stuck
two
sticks
in
his
ears
and
went
off,
mek,
mek,
mek,
mek,
through
the
reeds.
