I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream.


Some words whisper – soft and slow. Some words shout – thunder, GO! Some words scamper – patter, leap. Some words plod – thick, chore, creep. Some words laugh – jolly, lilt. Some words scowl – grim and guilt. Some words tickle – frisky, kiss. Some words scratch – jab, jeer, hiss. John Foster Vurderingseksemplar
