"I was only three years, but I was really into dolphins.
One day, we went to the zoo. Straight away we went to the sea-life Aquarium. We saw seals, penguins and dolphins. I wanted to swim with them but I wasn't allowed.
When it was time to go, we stopped at the gift shop and I saw the most amazing teddy dolphin ever. I wanted it so bad; I nagged my Mum to buy it.
She asked, "How much is it?"
I brought it to her.
She said, "Ten pounds!" Then she said no straight away.
All the way home I was crying my eyes out.
Months went by and eventually it was Christmas. The first thing I saw was the dolphin. I called him Benny and he's my best friend in the whole wide world."
