Do Not Open the Adventure Book Tuttie
Do not open the adventure book Tuttie was warned
But warnings for this girl are often poked fun at and scorned
She could not wait for the prissy librarians to leave
Knew now what fun shenanigan she had up her sleeve
She checked from the window to make sure they were gone
They are so persnickety, I wonder what planet they live on?
She opened that book almost immediately
A tiger jumped out and bit her hard on the knee
Chased her into another room where she locked it in
She ran back to the book and saw princesses giving a spin
Two knights and a dragon were rising high in the sky
A bear came toward her growling, she thought she might die
Tuttie ran to the kitchen with the beast at her rear
He stopped to devour a statue of a tiny deer
She spent the rest of the night locked up, praying for the prisses.
They came back the next morning, and were angry, there were no kisses.
