Here's a number of funny toys

For good little girls and good little boys,

First comes Jackie all ready for fun,

After the animals see him run.

Next is a bird of colours gay,

If he spreads his wings he will fly away.

Poor Master Duckie cries “Quack, quack, quack!

To my farmyard pond please take me back.”

What a dear little doggie Bunty his name,

I am sure that he looks quite friendly and tame.

His bright eyes are gazing up in the air,

I wonder what ever he sees up there!

“Croak, croak, croak!” cries Mr. Green Frog,

“I really am quite afraid of that dog!”

And that dear little clockwork mouse on wheels—

I know if you pinch him hard he squeals!

C.M. Rutley.

There were seven froggies of Lee

Who were happy as happy could be,

Till a duck close by

Just winked his eye,

As he thought of his afternoon tea.

With a hop, and a skip, and a run,

He soon put an end to their fun,

For as they went past

He snapped up the last,

And that tells you my story is done.

Mr. and Mrs. Ostrich and their Children.
