My mom used to say to me when I was little, "Leon, look for the good in others and others will see the good in you." Then she would look at me with one eye and look at dad with the other eye, then, she would change colors. I change colors also. There's no getting away from it when you're a chameleon.
My mom and dad came from America. They were born in a place called a zoo. They wanted to live in the country of their ancestors. So, long before I was born, they hid inside some brown boxes on a cargo ship that was bringing supplies to Africa. They often told me stories about different kinds of lizards who came with them.
When the ship arrived, they followed the water's edge for days until finally it led them to a jungle stream.
They lived here for a long time before they moved again to a place very close to a volcano. My sister went to live with them. The name of the place is called Lizardville. You can see all kinds of lizards there....
