Guyana




by Natalie M. and Anne Z.

Good morning Stoneleigh walkers. This week, the Jungle club learned about a small country that borders the Atlantic Ocean called Guyana. Guyana was colonized by the British until 1966 and as a result, it's official language is English. Most of this South American Country is covered by Rainforest, which houses some unique animals including a toad that weighs up to 2 lbs and can eat a bird in 2 gulps. But in areas without jungle inhabitants, a popular sport called cricket is played. it is very similar to baseball in America. Next time you see baseball, maybe you'll think of Guyana. Keep Walking, Stoneleigh.
