Little Fox Readers · Puss in Boots
A Royal Wedding
Fiona and Carabas were having a picnic. Puss hunted mice nearby. Fiona played her guitar. “ That’s a beautiful song, ” Carabas said.
Fiona smiled, “ I wrote that song for you. ” “ Fiona , will you marry me? ” Carabas blurted out. She blushed. “ Of course! ”
Puss’ head popped out of a bush. “ Hooray! ” he whispered. Carabas bit his lip. “ Fiona, I must tell you something. ”
“ Ahh! ” Puss dashed over. “ Master-” “ No , Puss. ” Carabas held up a hand. “ I must tell Fiona the truth. ”
“ Fiona, I’m not a duke, ” Carabas said. “ I’m actually just a poor man. I understand if you won’t marry me now. ”
