The text

Tip for the adult

Read it twice if you can: the first time to get the words right and the second time to read it as a whole.

A girl is rowing a canoe on a river. A crocodile is swimming alongside.

Se Nilen.

Nilen er en stor flod.

Nini er i en kano.

Nini ror og ror.

Solen er varm.

Nini ser en krokodille!

Den er stor og grøn.

Nini ror væk.

Pyh! Nu er Nini i sikkerhed.
