The Ogre's Breakfast

The Ogre's Breakfast

Jack waited until the ogre left the room. Then he threw open the oven door. He started to jump out.

But the ogre's wife stopped him. " No! " she whispered. " It's not safe yet. You must wait. My husband always takes a nap after breakfast. "

With a sigh, Jack closed the door. Soon the ogre came back. From inside the oven, Jack watched.

The ogre ate his big breakfast. " Mmm! Delicious, " he said. Soon the ogre's plate was empty. " Whew. That was fast, " Jack thought.

" Wife, " the ogre shouted. " Make me some more pancakes! " " Sure, dear, " the ogre's wife said.
