solved when two strawberry
bears emerge from the barn,
still chomping on the sweets.
As the bears realise
what they have done, the
whole barn collapses! The
unicones’ home is destroyed!
The Notto Prince arrives
and asks if he can take
the leftover pieces away.

the unicones a new home
from scratch.
everyone has plans
on how amazing this new
home will be. excited, they
call in all the creatures of
Sweetville to help.
But the unicones aren’t
all that sure… they just
want their old barn back,
not a palace or anything
fancy. They decide to
leave because they are
feeling worried.
When the unicones come
back, they see a beautiful,
huge palace. everyone is
excited for them to see it,
but the unicones don’t really
like it. No one listened when
they said what they wanted.

The palace has a huge
staircase, and the floors
are made of caramel,
which is sticky.
But the biggest problem
is that most of the palace
is made of chocolate.
And soon, the whole thing
has melted!
everyone realises that
they didn’t spend enough
time planning before they
started. They decide that
this time, they will think
things through and listen to

ANIMALS
the age of two
to three years.

Counting down long-living animals

african elephant
Life expectancy:
60-70 years
Natural predator: Lions
(occasionally)
Place of origin: Africa
Not only do elephants
live long, they also have a
very good memory. They can
remember incidents and they
can identify humans they have
interacted with before. Although
lions are the elephant’s natural
predator, humans hunting for ivory
tuatara are their biggest enemies.
Life expectancy: 60-100 years
Natural predator: Large birds of prey Macaw parrot
Place of origin: New Zealand Life expectancy: 70-80 years
Except for two of the tuatara species, the other Natural predator: Large cats,
tuatara family members went extinct about 60 eagles and hawks
million years ago. The tuatara is not a lizard, but Place of origin: Central and
the only survivor of the order Rhynchocephalia Southern America
who roamed the earth 200 million years ago. There are about 20 different
species of macaw parrots
and some of these birds are
koi fish
critically endangered. Originally
Life expectancy:
from rainforests, these big birds are well sought
Up to 100 years
after as pets, as they are both beautiful
Natural predator:
and intelligent.
Cats and other
carnivores
Place of origin:
Japan
You learn
Their history is something
as colourful as the new every
variations of colour that they day!
are available in. Around 200BC the Chinese
took black carp, or Magoi, into Japan. The
Japanese then bred the koi according to the
naturally occurring mutation, resulting in the BARBIE
30
lovely colours we see today.
 Greenland shark
Life expectancy: Over 100 years
Natural predator: None, he is an apex predator
(this means he has no natural predators
because he’s at the top of his food chain)
Place of origin: Arctic and North Atlantic
This one-tonne fish eats just about anything
that crosses his path in the icy waters. Whether
dead or alive, the Greenland shark might eat it.
At 6.4m, he has a huge appetite. His defence is
that his flesh is poisonous to other living beings.

GalapaGos Giant tortoise

Life expectancy: Over 100 years
Natural predator: Hawks eat their eggs and young
Place of origin: Galapagos Islands
The world’s largest tortoise species is huge, weighing
more than 230kg and measuring more than 1.5m in length.
Due to his slow metabolism, he can go without food and
water for about one year. Carrying such a heavy shell is
hard work and this tortoise easily sleeps 16 hours a day.

red sea urchin
Life expectancy: Over 100
years
Natural predator: Large
fish, crabs, eels, humans, sea
otters, birds
Place of origin: North Eastern
Pacific Ocean
The red sea urchin feeds on
algae and seaweed from
rocks and it makes sense then
that his mouth is at the bottom
of his body. He has five teeth
and his body is covered with
hard spines. Specimens of 200
years old have been found.
Bowhead whale
Life expectancy: 200 years
Natural predator: Killer whales
Place of origin: Arctic and sub-Arctic waters
The bowhead whale is at home in freezing
water, as he has a 50cm ‘blanket’ of blubber to
protect him from the cold. Weighing up to 100
tonnes, it is no wonder that only packs of killer
whales have a chance to kill a bowhead whale.
