Noisy Pigs Poor Mr. Pig was at his wits’ end.

The three little pigs in his class were noisy and wild and full of sass.

You pigs must heed what I say.

“You may come face to face with a wolf one day.”

“Oink, oink, we shall not worry.

Oink, oink, we are not a-fraid.

No wolf will foil the plans we made.”

A pig must show poise and be of good size.

Oink, oink, here we go on our way.

Oink, oink, we are off to the fair to-day.

The sheep were in the mea-dow and the cows got in the corn.

No one could find Little Boy Blue.

He was asleep in the hay with his horn.
