you know sometimes being a big sister

can be a quite a job especially when you

have to babysit a six-year-old who calls

himself Bobby the brat it was her

brother and it was Saturday morning and

it was her job to get him breakfast but

she couldn't find him he always liked to

hide just when she called him and she

looked from the top of the house down to

the bottom of the house she really

searched no Bobby

so she searched from Bobby's room all

the way across to her room on the other

side of the house and then back again

but no Bobby

so she really searched the ground floor

looking right up to the staircase on one

side and then right up to the staircase

on the other side couldn't find him so

she thought maybe he's hiding in the

curtains so she went to her room and she

spread the curtains open him but she

couldn't find him

she went to Bobby's room and she spread

the curtains open but no Bobby she even

looked under the rug no Bobby

then she realized this boy did not like

it when it was dark so she went to her

room and she turned off the lights and

shut the door and she went to Bobby's

room and she turned off the light and

shut the door by that time she was so

exhausted she went to the sofa and sat

down to take a nap and as she sat down

you know what she heard

ouch it wasn't the sofa talking it was

Bobby he was hiding right under the sofa

a fox good woof woof woof woof and the

Fox was very boastful he used to brag

I'm the fastest runner in the whole

forest

now that annoyed the other animals as

you can imagine so one day a little ant

came up to the Fox and said quit your

boasting you're not so fast I could beat

you in a race any day

well Paul Fox was shocked he said how

can this little ant beat me in a race

the other animals were shocked too and

so on the day of the race they all lined

up

well the Frog who was going to start the

race said ribbit ribbit

that's what frogs say he said rabbit I

will say 1 2 3 go

and that will start the race now the Fox

a little lined up and when the Frog had

said 1 2 3 and got to the goal part the

Fox started to run but the little jumped

on to the tail of of our Fox and as the

fog ran glandt

climbed up the tail and across the back

and onto the head and down the nose and

when the Fox got to the finish line the

little ant jumped off the nose and on to

the finish line and looked up at the Fox

did you remember that wolf off and he

said where have you been I've been

waiting for you for five minutes

well the Fox was shocked he did not know

how the little ant had beaten him in a

race and the other animals who knew

never told the Fox and we're not gonna

tell either are we
