No.87 Froggy Gets Dressed

It was cold. Froggy woke up and looked out the window. Snow snow, he sang, I want to play in the snow. Go back to sleep froggy, said his mother, don't you know frogs are supposed to sleep all winter. Wake up when the snow melts. No no, cried froggy, I'm awake awake! I want to go out and play in the snow. So froggy put on his socks-zoop! Pulled on his boots-zup! Put on his hat-zat! Tied on his scarf-zwit! Tugged on his mittens-zum! And flopped outside into the snow-flop flop flop. Frrrooggyy! Called his mother. What? Yelled froggy. Did you forget to put something on? Froggy looked down. Oops! Cried froggy, I forgot to put on my pants! He flopped back inside-flop flop flop. Tugged off his mittens. Untied his scarf. Took off his hat. Pulled off his boots. He left his socks on and slipped his pants on-zip! Then he pulled on his boots-zup! Put on his hat-zat! Tied on his scarf-zwit! Tugged on his mittens-zum! And flopped back outside into the snow-flop flop flop. Frrrooggyy! Called his mother. What? Yelled froggy. Did you forget to put something on? Froggy looked down. Oops! He cried, I forgot to put on my shirt! And your coat, added his mother. He flopped back inside-flop flop flop. Tugged off his mittens. Untied his scarf. Took off his hat. He left his pants, boots and socks on and buttoned up his shirt-zut zut zut! Then he snapped on his coat-znap! Put on his hat-zat! Tied on his scarf-zwit! Tugged on his mittens-zum! And flopped back outside into the snow-flop flop flop. Frrrooggyy! Called his mother. What? Yelled froggy. Did you forget to put something on? Froggy looked down. He had on his mittens. He had on his scarf. He had on his coat. He had on his shirt. He had on his pants. He had on his boots. He had on his socks. He reached up-yep! He had on his hat. What could be missing? Your underwear! His mother laughed. Oops! Cried froggy, looking more red in the face than green. He flopped back inside-flop flop flop. Tugged off his mittens. Untied his scarf. Unsnapped his coat. Unbuttoned his shirt. Unzipped his pants. Pulled off his boots. Took off his socks. He left his hat on and slipped his long johns on- with a zap of elastic. Then he put on one sock-zoop! Pulled on one boot-zup! Tugged on one mitten-zum! Started to tug on the other...and let it drop. And said, I'm too tired. And went back to sleep. Good night froggy!
