Once upon a time, in a far-off jungle, an elephant, a giraffe, and a polar bear decided to have a picnic. They packed sandwiches and drinks, and headed to the river to have a nice time. But when they got there, they saw an eagle flying overhead with an octopus in its claws. The octopus was shouting, "Help! Help!"

The elephant, giraffe, and polar bear were shocked. They had never seen an octopus being chased by an eagle before. They quickly came up with a plan to save the octopus.

The elephant grabbed the sandwiches and threw them at the eagle, while the giraffe used his long neck to grab the octopus. The polar bear jumped into the river and splashed around, making the eagle dizzy.

The eagle finally dropped the octopus, and the three friends helped him to safety. The octopus was so grateful that he offered to take them on a whale watching tour.

The four of them climbed onto the back of a friendly whale and set off into the ocean. They saw all sorts of amazing creatures, including schools of colorful fish and even a bear swimming in the water.

Finally, after a long day of adventure, the elephant, giraffe, polar bear, and octopus all agreed that it had been the best picnic ever. And from then on, they always remembered to bring extra sandwiches just in case they needed to save any more sea creatures!
