In the safari, a lion named Lisa lived in Sunnyville. Lisa liked to do everything all by herself. She believed that if she wanted something done right, she had to do it alone.

Lisa's Mother, Lori's birthday was tomorow. Lisa loved her mom more than anything. She wanted to find a way to celebrate her mom.

Hmm, what should I do?

Lisa sat in her room brainstorming ideas for what she could make, do, or show for her mom's birthday.

I'm gonna throw her a surprise party!

All of a sudden, the best idea ever popped 

into her head. 

Party to-do list

-Get decorations

-Get cake

-Get presents

-Invite guests

-Find music

-Get food/snacks

- get party hats

Lisa wrote a long list of all

 The things she had to do in one day

 to pull off the surprise party.

The first step was to buy decorations. On the way to the store, she ran into her friend George the giraffe. 

Hi, I'm throwing my mom a suprise party and I'm on my way to get all the things I need. It's a long long list. 

Hey Lisa, what are you up to?

Wow, that sounds like a lot of work. When's the party?

The party is tomorrow.

That's not a lot of time! Do you want any help?

Definitely not! I can finish this list and throw the best party ever all on my own. See you at the party!

Once Lisa was at the store, she got the decorations. 

The dinner and snacks, and then headed to the cake store.
