Hello, my name is Tiki TellaTallTale
I’m half kitty cat, with long ears and a tail...MEOWW
…and I’m half little girl, I walk and I talk
and I tell great stories
about ducks that wear socks!
And stories about doggies that whistle and sing
About pandas in pajamas
and birds with bells on their wings
“My tales come from dreams in my bed
And from my imaginary-ation
Playing pretend in my head”
Some people ask me
with great wonder in their eyes
TIKI TELLATALLTALE!
Doesn’t that mean you just tell us lies?
Please, please you must understand
I will not lie, nooo waaaaaaay
My stories are only for fun and for play
Why I dream of lands so far away,
In one story I fly a rocket all the way to Bombay!
And Please….please
Do not believe what they say
the moon is not made out of cheese,
It’s made of marshmallow candy
That makes kitty kats sneeze!
A-choo!
Well, Tiki exclaimed….
I have to go now
I’m late for my plane….
Why a cat never stays in one place
And it’s starting to rain! (Fast Fact - cats don’t like getting wet!)
I have to visit the Kitty Cat Queen
If I stay any longer
She’ll wonder where I’ve been
Then…
I play hopscotch with an elephant
Then I lunch with Shelly Snail
And then I meet with King Kong
To read him his mail
After that I will be tired
Of sailing the seas
I will curl up with a book by the fire
And catch some cat Zzzzzz’s
For tomorrow’s a new day
With adventures galore
I do hope you can join me for lots and lots more!
See you later, Bye-Bye!
waved Tiki TellaTallTale
Please write me a story
And send it in the mail!
