Little Lamb Had Mary
Mary woke up one morning finding a goat standing beside her bed. She got up and tried to shoo it away, but it didn’t leave. She went to the bathroom to change. She thought she locked the door behind her, but somehow the goat got in. Mary then went downstairs to eat breakfast, and the goat came along. Mary waited outside for the bus to come, and the goat kept nudging her. Then the bus came, and she ran into the bus. Mary thought the goat was sure to be gone, so she sat back and relaxed. The bus stopped at the school, and Mary made sure it wasn't there. She ran inside her school and stopped at her locker, she heard the sounds of the goat coming closer and closer. Mary started running as fast as she could to the next class. The sounds kept on getting louder until she was on the ground. The teacher came running outside and she cried, and cried, and cried.
