One fine day, Chef John<br />

got a letter from the <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>.<br />

Dear Chef John,<br />

I am going to visit<br />

you on Sunday<br />

night at six o’clock<br />

in the evening.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>


“The <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>!”<br />

screeched Chef John. And he<br />

shook and shivered and<br />

quaked and quivered from his<br />

head down to his feet! And he<br />

stammered and stuttered and<br />

mumbled and muttered,<br />

“What do <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>s like?<br />

What do I give a <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong><br />

to eat?”


When Chef John stopped<br />

shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>s on the internet and<br />

saw…<br />

Durian Cakes are<br />

the <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s<br />

favourite food. You<br />

should bake a<br />

durian cake and<br />

give it to the<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>.


Chef John prepared all<br />

the ingredients to bake the<br />

durian cakes. “I can’t have a<br />

hungry <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong> in my<br />

house!” exclaimed Chef John. He<br />

had to bake more durian cakes<br />

so that the <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong><br />

wouldn’t be hungry.<br />

However, the next day, he<br />

was shocked when he saw<br />

another letter from the <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>.


Dear Chef John,<br />

My children, nieces<br />

and nephews are<br />

coming to your house<br />

on Sunday too.<br />

P.S. There are ten<br />

children.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>


“Ten children!” screeched<br />

Chef John. And he shook and<br />

shivered and quaked and<br />

quivered from his head down to<br />

his feet! And he stammered<br />

and stuttered and mumbled<br />

and muttered, “What do <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s child or nephew or<br />

niece like? What do I give a<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s child or nephew<br />

or niece to eat?”<br />

When Chef John stopped<br />

shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s children on the<br />

internet and saw…


When Chef John stopped<br />

shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s children on the<br />

internet and saw…<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s<br />

children like<br />

chicken rice and<br />

pizzas.


Chef John prepared all<br />

the ingredients to cook chicken<br />

rice and pizzas. “I can’t have<br />

hungry children in my house!”<br />

exclaimed Chef John. He had to<br />

cook more chicken rice and<br />

pizzas so that the <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s children, nieces or<br />

nephews wouldn’t be hungry.


The next day, Chef John<br />

got another letter from the<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>.<br />

Dear Chef John,<br />

My cats are coming to<br />

your house on Sunday<br />

too.<br />

P.S. I have twenty.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>


“Twenty cats!” screeched<br />

Chef John. . And he shook and<br />

shivered and quaked and<br />

quivered from his head down to<br />

his feet! And he stammered<br />

and stuttered and mumbled<br />

and muttered, “What do <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s cats like? What do I<br />

give a <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s cats to<br />

eat?”


When Chef John stopped<br />

shaking, he looked up <strong>Prime</strong><br />

<strong>Minister</strong>’s cats on the internet<br />

and saw…<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s<br />

cats like<br />

chocolate fish<br />

with ice cream.


So, Chef John prepared<br />

all the ingredients to make<br />

chocolate fish with ice cream. “I<br />

can’t have hungry cats in my<br />

house!” exclaimed Chef John. He<br />

had to cook more chocolate<br />

fishes with ice cream so that<br />

the <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>’s cats<br />

wouldn’t be hungry.


The next day, Chef John<br />

got another letter from the<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>. “Come on!”<br />

screamed Chef John, “Who else<br />

is coming now!?” But the letter<br />

said…<br />

Dear Chef John,<br />

I can’t go to your<br />

house on Sunday.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>


“But I have already<br />

prepared everything!” shouted<br />

Chef John. So, Chef John sent a<br />

letter to the <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>.<br />

Dear <strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>,<br />

I am having free food at<br />

my house on Sunday. You<br />

can send starving people to<br />

my house.<br />

P.s. Children and cats are<br />

OK.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Chef John


The next day, Chef John<br />

arose to noises outside his<br />

house. When he looked out his<br />

window, and coming up his path<br />

he saw…Hundreds of people,<br />

hundreds of children and<br />

hundreds and hundreds of cats!


And he shook and<br />

shivered and quaked and<br />

quivered from his head down to<br />

his feet! And he stammered<br />

and stuttered and mumbled<br />

and muttered, “With this<br />

amount of people, children and<br />

cats, will there be enough for all<br />

to eat?”<br />

<strong>For</strong>tunately, there was food<br />

for everyone. And everyone said,<br />

“Thank you, thank you, Chef<br />

John. That was food fit for the<br />

<strong>Prime</strong> <strong>Minister</strong>!”
