Once upon a time, there was a family who was in Burnaby. They lived near a very dense forest.

The Kwan Family and the Tiger by Addie Kwan

There lived a tiger who was born two years ago. He was growing up to be a strong and brave tiger. He was mighty and his roar frightened the other animals.

But, there was a problem. He just lived with his mother, all by himself. He had no friends to play with. He was two years old. And though he was a young cub, he was big.

He was lonely. He was super bored.

The family thought and thought and thought for a very long time. Until they came up with a solution.

They all came to the dense forest where the three-year-old tiger lived. They visited their tiger friend every single day. The tiger liked this.

The end.
