BIG FAT COWS

      It’s raining
         big fat cows
today.

    Â Â Â Â How many cows?
It’s hard to say.

    A big cow here.

    A fat cow there.

    Big fat cows are

    Cows under water.

    Cows in space.

    Big fat cows
all over the place!

    Cows in boats.

    Cows in suits.

    Big fat cows
        in cowboy boots!

    This one is a
mixed-up cow.
It flaps its wings
and says miaow!

    Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Oh no—watch out!
    Don’t look now!
This one is an
             EXPLODING cow …

NOEL THE MOLE

Here is a hole.

    Â Â Â Â Â A deep,
dark
hole.

    In this hole
lives a mole
called Noel.

    He eats
    black coal.

    He plays
      rock-and-roll.

And
that’s
the
whole
story
of
the
mole
called
Noel —
he’s a
hole-dwelling,
coal-eating
rock-and-roll
mole!

KLAUS THE MOUSE

This
is
Klaus.
    
Klaus
is a
mouse.

Klaus
the
mouse
has
a
very
small
house.

    A
    very,
    very,
    very,
    very,
    very

    small
house.

    But Klaus
the mouse
hates his
small house …

    because
Klaus
is
a

    VERY,
    VERY,
    VERY

    BIG

    mouse!

WILLY THE WORM

This is Willy.
    Willy the worm.

    He goes to
    squirm school
  to learn how
to squirm.

    But Willy the worm
is a very bad learner.
He’s wiggly   
on the   
straight,   

and a
terrible
turner!

    Willy never pays attention,
and he mucks around a lot.

    He always ends up
in a great big knot!
