Once upon a time there lived a small happy family that lived in a small house, in a small town, in a small country somewhere in the world. The family consisted of a Mother, a Father, a Brother and a sister. Oh, yeah and there was also a big Golden Retriever dog called Binka. The family lived Binka and treated him as if he was a human being. Only one day aliens came and took Binka’s family away somewhere in space. Binka was asleep at the time and when he woke up he wondered where his family was. He walked into the kitchen and a voice suddenly came out of no where. It said Binka would have to show some kind of special talent if he wanted his family to come back. Binka was pretty intelligent so he got to work straight away and didn’t stop working for a long time. At the end of the month Binka was still working hard and hadn’t stopped to rest. He was ready to show the aliens his performance. The Aliens suddenly appeared on a big television screen and said they were ready to see Binka’s performance. So Binka got ready and all of a sudden pushed himself back onto his hind legs and started walking. However the aliens thought it was a very poor and anyway everyone else could already walk even if dogs couldn’t. So Binka was very sad and had to work even harder in order to get his family back. Binka tried singing, How much is that doggy in the window? Dancing and even playing the guitar! But the aliens said that it wasn’t a talent because almost everyone could already sing, dance and play a musical instrument. Binka got really depressed and suddenly felt so tired because he had not slept since he started working. So he fell asleep. When Binka woke up and was really hungry and thirsty so he went to his food bowl and to his horror he found the water had evaporated and there was no food. Binka went to the cupboard to get the food but he couldn’t open the cupboard. Binka ran outside to let his anger out but instead of snarling another sound came out. Binka was barking! The aliens didn’t think Binka could do it, so they very reluctantly handed the family over to Binka. They were all very happy and Binka was sent to a school to show other dogs how to bark. And they all lived happily ever after.
