Leaping MatchThe grasshopper made an august bow, but he leapt only half as high as the flea. Unfortunately, he also jumped crookedly. He opened his wings to correct his leap (which was really a kind of cheating). The wind caught his wings, and he flew up the king’s nose. "Ugh!" cried the king, and his snort shot the grasshopper out of his nose, across the courtyard, and right smack into the royal chef’s five layer cake. How rude! |
