Said the blackbird to the robin:
     "I’d love a worm for tea.
I know that you like wriggly worms,
     So perhaps you can help me."

​

"Yes," replied the robin.
      "I know just the place for you:
In Mrs Whitehead’s garden
    You’ll find more than just a few."

​

Said the ladybird to the blue tit:
     "I’d love greenfly for my tea.
I know that you like greenfly
     So perhaps you can help me."​

​

"Yes," replied the blue tit.
      "I know just the place for you:
In Mrs Whitehead’s garden 
    You’ll find more than just a few."

​

Said the moorhen to the ducklings:
      "I’d love bread and seeds for tea.
I know that you like these as well,
     So perhaps you can help me."

​

"Yes," replied the ducklings:
      "We know just the place for you:
In Mrs Whitehead’s garden
    You’ll find more than just a few."

​

Said a fat boy to his mother: 

​

"I’d love some chocolate biscuits, a milkshake,  a scone with some jam, and lots and lots of creamy cakes for tea.  I know you like these things as well, so perhaps you can help me."

​

So what do you think his mother said?

​

"No!." replied his mother:
      "It’s NOT the place for you.
All those biscuits, chocolate and milkshakes?
      No! Not even a few!"

​

And his mother was quite right!
