The forest of Madagascar was home to Emanuel the black lemur with his mom and dad. The mother was going to have another baby. If it is a boy they will name him Joseph. If it is a girl they will name her Elizabeth. Suddenly she gave a loud scream and out came the baby. This will be the only It was a baby boy so they named him Joseph.

"Emanuel, Emanuel you can't get me" they were playing tag faster and faster he jumped from tree to tree there is nothing better then having the wind wiping threw his hair. Suddenly "AHHHHHHH!" he had fallen out of the tree with a thump he landed. Snap "OW!" screamed Joseph rubbing his behind. He pulled his tail trying to set it free but it was no use.

Later on people came. Joseph was scared. He picked up stones and sticks and threw them at him, but they grabbed him. They put him in a cage and brought him to the zoo. When they got there they took the cage to the zoo owner. They said "if you pay me we will give you this" they uncovered the cage and showed the lemur. "NO" he said so they took the lemur and set him free he saw the forest and he went in it but he was lost he saw a thing in the bushes swish swash out came a fox. "Hello" said the tricky old Fox. Joseph had never seen a fox he didn't know how to react around a fox. The fox had gorgeous short red hair with white fur but in the sun it looked like silver. Joseph said " I am lost I need help getting home can you help me." "I know the forest well follow me" said the fox with a smirk on her face. Two hours later they arrived at the foxes den. "Here you are," said the tricky old fox .

"But this is" Before he could finish, the fox sprang in to the air. Then Joseph jumped in to the air and on to the tree. There was a lot of birds in that tree that gave him an idea. He scared all the birds in the tree and jumped from tree to tree. The fox got confused and went away. Because of the fox he was only he was now driven deeper in the forest now all tired out he sat down. The only thing that was running through his mind was his mom and dad and his brother Emanuel. Just then he saw something like him

Joseph asked Chris if he could help him and he said yes and they were off. They came across an owl they asked her for directions but the only thing she would say is ("I am the best of the rest.")

They went on they smelt a little sent in the tree Joseph yelled " that’s were I live!" With excitement he ran he right in the. Everybody took one glance ran to him they. Gave him a big hug. They asked Chris if he could
