Zippy the Zebra and the Zip-Up Shoes

Once upon a time, there was a zebra named Zippy who lived in a zoo. One day, Zippy heard a loud buzz coming from the zoo's entrance. When she went to look, she saw a delivery truck with a big zero on its side. The driver handed the zookeeper a long zip and said, "This is for Zippy the zebra."

Zippy was so curious that she ran over to see what it was all about. When she opened the zip, she found a brand new pair of shoes with zippers on the side! She was so happy that she buzzed around the zoo, showing off her new shoes to all the other animals.

From that day on, Zippy was the coolest zebra in the zoo, and all the other animals wanted to be just like her. They all started buzzing about her amazing shoes and how they made her run faster and jump higher than any other zebra.

And that’s the story of how Zippy the zebra became the star of the zoo, all because of her cool new shoes with zippers.
