The Story of Penny and Eggbert

 * Once upon a time, there was a penguin named Penny and a duck named Eggbert. (They come from a strange land called "3D Universe" in Africa.  Strange, isn't it!)


 * One day, Eggert said to Penny, "Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack."


 * Penny replied, "Peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep, peep!"


 * This made Eggbert very excited and he said, "Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack."


 * And that is the end of our story.
