Answer:

Orville the albatross was feeling low. His job at the Central Park Zoo involved eating all the popcorn and half-finished hot dogs that the little children dropped to end for the season. However, he was unsure about what to do next. Orville sighed and looked at the busy road, where he enjoyed watching cars going back and forth. Suddenly, there was a tap on his wing, and he looked down to see two mice. The grandfather mouse politely asked Orville if he could help them cross the busy street. Orville looked confused and asked if they wanted him to go in the middle of the street and stop traffic. The mice then suggested that Orville could give them a lift over the traffic, and in return, they would buy him a hot dog as payment. The idea of a tasty hot dog intrigued Orville, so he readily agreed to help them. He turned to the mice and saw that there were eight little mice standing in front of him. Orville was surprised and asked how strong they thought he was. The grandfather mouse explained that the more mice there were, the more hot dogs they would buy. With this in mind, Orville began the Albatross Taxi Service for Mice and became a very successful businessbird.
