The Cat In The Hat Comes Back

This was no time for play. This was no time for fun. This was no time for games. There was work to be done.

All that deep, Deep, deep snow, All that snow had to go. When our mother wentDown to the town for the day, She said, " Somebody has toClean all this away. Somebody, SOMEBODYHas to, you see. " Then she picked out two Somebodies. Sally and me.

Well. . . There we were. We were working like thatAnd then who should come upBut the CAT IN THE HAT! " Oh-oh! " Sally said. " Don't you talk to that cat. That cat is a bad one. That Cat in the Hat. He plays lots of bad tricks. Don't you let him come near. You know what he didThe last time he was here. "

" Play tricks" " laughed the cat. " Oh, my my! No, no, no! I just want to go inTo get out of the snow. Keep your mind on your work. You just stay there, you two. I will go in the houseAnd find something to do. " Then that cat went right in! He was up to no good! So I ran in afterAs fast as I could!

Do you know where I found him?You know where he was?He was eating a cake in the tub! Yes he was! The hot water was onAnd the cold water, too. And I said to the cat, " What a bad thing to do! " " But I like to eat cakeIn a tub, " laughed the cat. " You should try it some time, " Laughed the cat as he sat.
