How I rephrased them (simple steps):

  1. Pick a desert animal the child knows or can imagine (fox, lizard, camel, etc.).
  2. Keep words short and active (follow, chase, tiptoe).
  3. Use the word "shadow" so the idea is the same but easy to say.
  4. Add a tiny fun word (tiny, slow, slithery) to make the picture clear.
