The Lonely Frilled Lizard

I'm Phillip the frilled lizard. I love making friends, but I'm not as popular as you may think. Because every time I make new friends, I get excited and the frill around my neck opens up.

When my frill opens, everybody disappears. Until one day Amy shows up.

She is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen. After so many days, I build up enough courage to speak to her.

But before my frill even opens ...she is gone. Then something strange happens. "Wait!" says a voice.

It is Amy. "I'm sorry. When I get excited, my skin color changes," she says. I think that is so cool. "That's OK," I say. "My frill opens when I get excited. Then everybody disappears."
