Mum is mad. The shoes flew.
Why did she throw them? I do not
have a clue.
Front of card
Dragons fly. They spit and spew.
I like to fly. What do you do?
Wolf was greedy. Wolf ate his food. He ate it very fast. A bone stuck in his
throat. It would not move. He could not eat.
Wolf saw Crane. Crane had a long bill. Crane had a long neck. Crane could
get the bone out.
‘Get the bone out!’ said Wolf.
‘I will give you a gift!’ said Wolf.
Crane did not want to. Wolf had a big mouth. Wolf had sharp teeth. Crane
was greedy. Wolf opened his mouth. Crane put her head in. She got the
bone out. Wolf walked away.
‘I want my gift!’ said Crane.
‘I did not bite you. That is your gift,’ said Wolf.
Crane was not happy. Wolf was.
