How Much is the Zoo?

A rich American came with his children to the English Zoo. His sons were bad children. They ran and jumped, cried and laughed all day. In the evening they told their father, “We like the Zoo. Buy it for us!”

The American asked a man, “How much does the Zoo cost? My children like it very much. I want to buy the Zoo.”

“We are not going to sell it, but we can buy your children for the Zoo,” was the answer.
