The Big Pancake (3)

Before long pancake passed a cow in a field.

" Stop! " mooed the cow . " I'd like to eat you! " But the pancake just rolled faster.

" I don't want to be eaten," it said. " Seven hungry little boys couldn't catch me. Their mother couldn't catch me. A man couldn't catch me.A cat couldn't catch me. A cockerel couldn't catch me.  A duck couldn't  catch me. And I won't let you catch me!"

But the cow pushed through the fence and galloped after the big pancake.



In some woodland, near a river , the pancake passed a pig.

"Where are you off to in such a hurry? " grunted the pig.

" I don't want to be eaten,"said the pancake.

" Seven hungry little boys couldn't catch me. Their mother couldn't catch me. A man couldn't catch me.A cat couldn't catch me. A cockerel couldn't catch me.  A duck couldn't  catch me. A cow couldn't catch me. And I won't let you catch me!"

But I wouldn't dream of such a thing ! " said the pig. " I'm on your side."

"Well," said the pancake to the pig.
"could you help me to cross this river ? Pancakes can't swim, you see. "

" No problem," snorted the pig.
"Just climb onto my nose and I will carry you across."

So the big pancake climbed onto the pig's nose.But the pig gave a chuckle and tossed the pancake high into the air.

Flip! Flop!  This time there was no escape. The pancake fell right into the pig's open mouth and gobbled up straightaway.


Just then the cow and the duck and the cockerel and the cat and the man and the mother and the seven hungry little boys came running  up.

"Have you seen a big pancake ? "
They panted.

" Well," smiled the pig. " was it a very big pancake ? Was it a lovely golden brown ? Did it roll along on its side like a wheel ? "

" YES !"  they all yelled. 

The pig licked his lip.
" It was DELLICIOUS ! " he said.
