Seeing Pontsho, Kosi straightaway jumped off the teacher’s head and scampered across the room to his owner.

“Young man,” said the Principal sternly, “you have a lot of explaining to do.”

Pontsho said he was sorry. He knew that nobody was allowed to bring animals to school, and he would not do it again.

The Principal looked at him. He was frowning, and Pontsho knew that he was going to get into deep trouble. But then, quite suddenly, the Principal stopped frowning and a broad smile appeared on his face.

“Well,” he said, “the rules say that nobody can bring a dog to school. They also say something about not bringing mice or other pets like that. But they don’t say anything about meerkats, do they?”

“No,” said one of the teachers, beginning to laugh. “They don’t.”

The Principal raised a finger. “That’s not to say that the rules won’t say that in the future,” he said. “But for today, I think it will be all right.”
