ANNA PIGNATARO

Under the Milky Way,

three little tigers were tumbling with Daddy.

Three little tigers blew raspberries and said,

‘This is how we love you, Daddy.’

Little Polar Bear nipped Daddy’s neck and said,

‘This is how I love you, Daddy.’

Little Polar Bear was chasing

Daddy over the snow.

Baby Hedgehog bounced on Daddy’s tummy and said,

‘This is how I love you, Daddy.’

Baby Hedgehog was rolling in the shrub.
