00:00The mixed-up chameleon.
00:04On a
00:30shiny green leaf sat a small green chameleon.
00:42You could hardly see it.
00:47It moved onto a brown tree and turned brownish.
00:56Then it rested on a red flower and turned reddish.
01:05When the chameleon moved slowly across the yellow sand, it turned yellowish.
01:20When it was cold and hungry, it turned grey and dull.
01:27It sat still and waited.
01:30Only its eyes moved up, down, sideways until it spotted a fly.
01:36The chameleon's long and sticky tongue shot out and caught the fly.
01:42When it was warm and had something to eat, it turned sparkling green.
01:49That was its life.
01:51It was not very exciting.
01:56But one day, the chameleon saw a zoo.
02:01It had never seen so many beautiful animals.
02:08The chameleon thought, how small I am, how slow, how weak.
02:16I wish I could be big and white like a polar bear.
02:20And the chameleon's wish came true.
02:29But was it happy?
02:32No.
02:36I wish I could be handsome like a flamingo.
03:00I wish I could be smart like a fox.
03:15I wish I could swim like a fish.
03:32I wish I could run like a deer.
03:56I wish I could see things far away like a giraffe.
04:19I wish I could hide in a shell like a turtle.
04:36I wish I could be strong like an elephant.
04:53I wish I could be funny like a seal.
05:04I wish I could be like people.
05:22Just then, a fly flew by.
05:25The chameleon was very hungry.
05:29But the chameleon was very mixed up.
05:32It was a little of this, and it was a little of that.
05:37And it couldn't catch the fly.
05:41I wish I could be myself.
05:49The chameleon's wish came true, and it caught the fly.
