Marlon's Maritime Tales: A Horse, a Sailor, and Stories by the Harbor
Marlon, the horse, was bugging his trainer all week.
He wanted to meet the new sailor who recently moved in next door.
Ever since he heard the sailor's story about a shark, he's been curious.
Marlon was longing to hear more of the sailor's tales.
One day, Marlon found a way to escape from his stable.
He galloped towards the sailor's house, which was near the harbor.
The sailor was surprised to see Marlon, but welcomed him.
He began to tell Marlon another shark story.
As Marlon listened to the sailor's story, he noticed a collar around the sailor's neck.
The collar had a picture of a lizard on it.
Marlon was fascinated by the lizard and the sailor's stories.
He decided to visit the sailor every day to hear more stories.
Marlon's trainer was surprised to find him gone every day.
But he knew Marlon was safe with the sailor.
Every day, Marlon would run to the harbor to hear more shark stories.
And every night, he would return to his stable, dreaming of sharks and lizards.
