Usually doen’t  use it

Tucker Mouse,

Kind, generous,

Dancing, Sharing, Scrounging

He is a lovely mouse.

Harry

Harry is a ginger cat

Always being polite to animals

Running away he sometimes does

Raging he does not do

Yelling no, but singing yes.

Sai Fong

Sometimes he is strange

A funny sort of man

I would like to meet him

For some day I will stand

                                          On the same floor as he will.
                           
                                          No one can miss his funny sort of speech

                                          Going to help the cricket, that's his destiny!
