It was a sunny day, so we took Caitlan to the Zoo.
We saw elephants, lions, gorillas, then a kangaroo.
We lifted Caitlan high to see the seals …
next thing we knew, she had lost her shiny new shoe.
Cut ‘n Staple Page 3a
Down, down went Caitlan's new red shoe,
deep down into the pool of sparkling blue.
The seals looked up - they knew what to do.
They started to play with Caitlan's new shoe.
Cut ‘n Staple Page 4a
We called out to the Keeper of Seals at the zoo.
He said, "I'll need a long net to fish out your new red shoe".A crowd gathered around - what a hullaballoo!
All this fuss to get Caitlan's new red shoe.
Cut ‘n Staple Page 5a
The seal keeper reached over and netted the red shoe,
shiny, wet and not so new.
He said, "Here, now, little girl, you know what to do". "Keep
your shoes on when you next visit the zoo".
(And this story is true!)
