NATIONAL PETS' DAY 

By Josie Whitehead

Lesson Plans: HERE

National Pets' Day

"Tomorrow’s National Pets’ Day,"

      Miss Rogers told us all:
"And you’re allowed to bring your pet,
     
But leave him in the hall."

So Malcolm brought his little cat 
    Whilst Jacob took his snake.
I had a tortoise and a dog  –
   Now which one should I take?

Mary brought her budgerigar -

      Oh she loved him such a lot!

John brought a fleecy little lamb 

      And Jack, his t i g e r - - - - what????

​"His T I G E R!!!" everyone exclaimed!
    They rushed back to the hall.
What had that greedy tiger done?
       Yes - he’d eaten one and all!

       (Oh no he hadn't!!  His tiger was a toy.)
