Lemuel Gulliver was a young boy who loved sailing. He believed he would sail across

On 4th May 1699, he set sail with Captain Prichard and crew. At first their voyage was
a success. Then, he knew there was a danger waiting for him ahead. There were a lot of
rocks straight in front of them. Gulliver shouted to the Captain to turn the ship starboard.
They were stranded and the Captain made a difficult decision. He commanded to take the
boats and search the land. They had to do so to avoid being stuck on those rocks forever.
Six of the crew, including himself, tried to get clear of the ship and the rocks. They didn’t give
up and they bent over backwards to save themselves but it was useless. The waves were
too strong.

“BANG! BANG!” Gulliver knew something went wrong. He washed up on a distant

shore. He didn’t know what had happened to his friends. He tried to walk and he managed to
walk half a mile but he was not able to see any sign of houses or people. He shouted to see

and he dropped down on the grass. He fell asleep there.

wished he could fly too. After a while, Kini came to take a rest on a rock beside the pool. Piko asked
Kino, “Hi Kino. You can fly very well. Could you please teach me how to fly?”

Kino was astonished. “You do not have wings and feathers. How can you fly?” Piko pleaded
again, “Please lend a hand. I am sure I can fly.” Piko asked again and again. Finally Kino agreed.
