I didn’t write anything, but this should simplify things so all you need to do is basically make a scenario. Hope this helped!!!
Answer:
The neighborhood around Zebras school seemed as if it was in the suburbs. It is strangely empty as stated in the last paragraph. The neighborhood didn't have people nor traffic. It didn't even have stray dogs that would just roam about. It seemed "vacant and silent as if it were already in the full heat of summer." You can see some of the teachers houses such as Mr. Morgans and Mrs. English. The other homes on the street had columned front porches and back patios. Their houses and oak trees stood curiously still in the warm golden light of the midmorning sun.
