One day a rat went down to the seaside and he could see an island, not very far away. He thought and thought about how he could get across to that island. A squid came along and said 'What's on your mind rat?' The rat told him he'd like to go across to the island but he didn't know how to get there. The old squid scratched his head and then said: 'Rat, I think I could take you there - you'd better jump on my back and I'll swim with you, across to that island.' So the rat jumped onto the squid's back and away they went.
