Read together

Once upon a time, in the ocean lived a jellyfish named Jello who loved to jump. One day, while exploring the ocean floor, Jello stumbled upon a beautiful flower garden. He picked a flower and put it on his head like a hat. Suddenly, he heard a loud "Munch, Munch" noise. When he turned around, he saw a gorilla eating grapes. The gorilla noticed Jello with a flower on his hat and started to laugh. Jello felt embarrassed and tried to hide. Just then, a school of fish swam by and offered to help. They gave Jello a hat made of seaweed to cover the flower. The gorilla stopped laughing and said "Wow, that's a cool hat!" Jello felt much better and continued his adventure. But then, he got too close to a hot water vent and his seaweed hat melted. The end.
