If you look into this lake,you will see beautifui carol.You may think they are beautifui flowers.
If you take a close look at a piese of caral,you will see many little holes in it.In each of these holes a very small sea animal ever lived,These sea animal made the coral.
Coral began to build under the water.You after year,the coral grew higher and higher.At last it grew out of the water.Sometimes the wind brought seeds to it.Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island.The little seeds grew.In a few years there were plants all over the island.In a few more years there were trees growing there.
So you see ,these islands were built little by little.
