Don’t Don’t comb your hair in company. Don’t cross the kitchen floor in welly boots. Don’t put the television on. Don’t squint. Don’t get in fights. Don’t stuff your mouth with sausage. Don’t drop towels on the bathroom floor. Don’t hang about with that rough crowd. Don’t put your feet up on the chair. Don’t use up all the paper in the loo. Don’t scratch. Don’t twitch. Don’t sniff. Don’t talk. Don’t stick your tongue out. Don’t you dare to answer back. Life is full of opportunity, says my mum.

Oh, not bad, not bad.
So what brings you out on this fine morning, Fred?

What are you looking for?
There’s this bone I hid…. I really wanna eat it.
But I just ain’t sure where I hid it!So, let me get this straight. You hid a bone somewhere and now you simply cannot find it. Is that right?
Yep. That’s about the size of it, pal.

That’s real nice of you, Grace. I sure appreciate it.

The Feeling of Having a Good Day
Hallelujah – I’m awake!This day belongs to me
and I’m its favourite.It wants to lick melike a dog.

I’ll get a prizeat school assemblyfor being me,
then all the lessonswill be aboutmy awesomeness
and at break I’ll kick the footballto Australia.
I can see it in the mirrorWhen I smile – I have electric teeth! By Joanna Limburg

Snakestranger - suggested answers
An old dialect rhyme about the blood-sucking dragonfly said to sting only boys who were naughty.
Snakestranger please can you fly all around the brooks. There are naughty boys who are stealing with fish-hooks. Please find them and sting them all!
But do let the good boys catch lots of the fish. They can take them home to fry the fish in a pan for supper.
With their fish, at supper, they can eat bread and butter. While all the little bad boys only get to lick the dish.
