Snap told a joke on the way to the zoo. He's still laughing. So is the turtle — slowly.
Somewhere around the bridge, Snap told his best joke — and laughed so hard at it he couldn't close his mouth. He's been laughing ever since. His best friend Scoot the box turtle is laughing too; turtles just do it slowly. Scoot expects to reach the funny part sometime next spring. What was the joke? Snap will tell you if you ask. You just have to wait for him to stop laughing first.
