The Iron Man page 35 – 37

Clink, Clink, Clink! Again, he tapped the nail on the knife. And now the Iron Man was coming. Hogarth could feel the earth shaking under the weight of his footsteps. Was it too late to run? Hogarth stared at the Iron Man, looming, searching, towards him for the taste of the metal that had made that inviting sound. Clink, Clink, Clink! Went the nail on the knife, And CRASSSHHH! The Iron Man vanished. He was in the pit. The Iron Man had fallen into the pit.

Hogarth set off. He ran, he ran home – home with the great news. And as he passed the cottages on the way, and as he turned down the lane towards his father’s farm, he was shouting “The Iron Man’s in the trap!” and “We’ve caught the Iron Giant.” When the farmers saw the Iron Man wallowing in their deep pit, they sent up a great cheer. He glared up towards them, his eyes burned from red to purple, from purple to white, from white to fiery whirling black and red, and the cogs inside him ground and screeched, but he could not climb out of the steep-sided pit.

Climate and Landscape

As Africa is so big, it has lots of different climates and landscapes — from hot sandy deserts, rainforests, savannahs, to snowy mountain tops and long windy rivers.

Africa has the world’s largest hot desert — the Sahara. It can reach temperatures of 57 degrees Celsius during the day!

Most of Africa’s remaining rainforests are found in the Congo river basin, on the Atlantic Ocean side of the continent.

The Congo rainforest is famous for its gorillas, chimpanzees, and elephants as well as its native population of forest dwellers, known as pygmies.

Africa is famous for its amazing wildlife. Its animal reserves and savannas are home to wildlife such as lions, zebra and elephants.

The Serengeti is the most famous savannah in Kenya and Tanzania. It is the only part of Africa where annual migrations of animals, such as wildebeest still happen.

Mount Kilimanjaro is a dormant volcano in Tanzania. It is the highest mountain in Africa. It is part of Kilimanjaro National Park and is a major climbing destination.

The Nile is the world’s longest river. It flows for 4132 miles through Ethiopia and Egypt.
