The Perfect Pet
Nell doesn't care for shopping.
“Dad！Are we finished yet？”
She sees a store that looks more fun.
Can I go in and pick a pet？
Here's Tess and Ted.
They're glad to help,
with pets both small and big.
“A dog is a lot of fun.”
“A pup can beg and dig.”
Dad's not so sure.
“Dogs make a mess.
And who would clean it up？”
Nell begs and pleads,
but Dad won't budge.
No,Nell,not a pup.
“Well,how about a snack？”says Ted.
“Sid's very friendly,miss."
Sid ties himself around Dad's neck.
Pat him.Let him hiss.
A parrot snatched at Dad's cap,
And perches on a rack.
"No need to worry,sir,"says Tess.
Ted can get it back.
Dad helps Ted chase the parrot.
They just can't jump high enough.
Ted tries to catch it in a net.
Dad and Ted huff and puff.
Nell sees a bat hang upside down.
It looks so very still,
Dad thinks there's something wrong with it.
Tess,tell us,is it I'll?
"He's only sleeping,sir,"says Tess.
"Bats do a lot of that."
"I think he's really cute,"says Nell.
Dad,can I get a bat?
Nell counts out all her money,but-
"That's not enough,"says Tess.
Then Ted finds something cheaper.
"Look!"
A bug on a log is less.
"Is this the pet you want?"asks Dad.
Nell nods and smiles,"you bet!
That was the greatest shopping trip."
"I had fun and I got a pet."
