• let's do as they do. I'll help you
• with the hard words, and they'll
• explain things if we don't

PETER PAN

• 2. Mrs. Darling quivered and went to the window.
  It
• was securely fastened. She looked out, and the
  night
• was peppered with stars. They were crowding round
  
• the house, as if curious to see what was to take
  place
• there, but she did not notice this, nor that one
  or
• two of the smaller ones winked at her. Yet a
• nameless fear clutched at her heart and made her
  cry,
• Oh, how I wish that I wasn't going to a party
• tonight!
• Even Michael, already half asleep, knew that she
  
• was perturbed, and he asked, Can anything harm
  us,
• mother, after the night-lights are lit?
• Nothing, precious, she said they are the
  eyes a
• mother leaves behind her to guard her children.
• She went from bed to bed singing enchantments
• over them, and little Michael flung his arms
  round
• her. Mother, he cried, I'm glad of you.

• starving.
• Immediately he had been taken aside

• something harsh and guttural, and she
• seemed to have trouble pronouncing
• the letter w. As well as that, she did
• something funny with the letter r. She
• would roll it round and round her

• was going to be a terrible, horrible, no
• good, very bad day.

• cold little piggies. Sometimes
• they're clean little piggies, and
• sometimes they're dirty little
• piggies.
• Sometimes they're good little
• piggies, but not at bedtime. That's
• when they skip down my tummy,
• dance on my toes, then run and
• hide.

CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS

• 23. In most ways, it was very much like any
• other tiny town. It had a Main Street lined
• with stores, houses with trees and gardens
• around them, a schoolhouse, about three
• hundred people, and some assorted cats
• and dogs. But there were no food stores in
• the town of Chewandswallow. They didn't
• need any. The sky supplied all the food
• they could possibly want. The only thing
• that was really different about
• Chewandswallow was its weather. It
• came three times a day, at breakfast,
• lunch, and dinner. Every thing that
• everyone ate came from the sky.
