Sindbad and his crew were sailing through the ocean, when they came to an island. The sky was stormy, so they decided to camp on the island for a few days. While searching for fresh water, some of the sailors found a huge white egg. Sindbad said, “Don’t touch that egg. It belongs to a bird as big as a mountain. I have seen one before.” But the other sailors ignored him and cooked the egg. They had just finished eating, when two huge birds appeared in the sky. The sailors were so scared that they ran to the ship and set sail at once. But Sindbad stayed on the island as it was not safe to sail in a storm. The angry birds picked up huge boulders in their claws and dropped them on the ship. The ship was wrecked, and only a few sailors managed to swim back safely to the island.
