Cowbells tinkle. And over there, a family of elephantsmunches on dry grass, flaps huge earslike slow fans, and waits.It is a time of waiting. The gazelles, the wildebeest and the zebras are all waiting. The lions, too, and the crocodiles are waiting. Little Tepi watches the animals and wonders what is coming. Soon there will be rain, and food for everyone!
