There used to be a zebra named Zoe.
She enjoyed reading adventure books all day long.
When her parents asked her to do the housework and her brother called her out to play, she preferred to read books and wander with her thoughts to far, far, far away places…
When Zoe read the books, she imagined she was the heroine rescuing other zebras from all sorts of weird villains.
In her imagination, after battles with the bad guys, she wins, and all the other zebras cheer for her and trust her to always save them from all evil
But, Zoe understood that these are just adventure stories and there is no such thing as heroes in reality.
Until one day, a lion arrived at the place where her siblings play.
He ambushed the other zebras and waited for an opportunity where he could devour them.
Zoe, who every other day was immersed deep in the books, decided on that very day to go out and play.
During a game, she suddenly noticed a lion lurking for them.
She immediately remembered the stories she had read and began to act!
She told all the zebras to stop the game and go hide.
She then took a stick and set his head on fire to drive the lion away.
Zoe managed to smuggle him in, all the zebras saw how Zoe acted fearlessly and saved their lives!
They called her “The heroine Zoe”, carried her on their backs, and applauded her for this miraculous act.
Zoe the zebra was happy.
She is finally a heroine, as in the adventure books she read, as she dreamed.
