TONGUE TWISTER:
Tricky Trevor tried to train twelve tiny turtles to tap-dance on tiptoes, but the turtles turned terribly tired and toppled into a tangled tower of teacups. “Tut-tut!” Trevor tutted, taking ten towels to tidy the tremendous tangle, when a troop of trombone-playing toads trotted through, tootling tunes that totally threw Trevor off track. The turtles, tickled by the toads’ tunes, tapped twice as fast, turning Trevor’s training into a truly tremendous, topsy-turvy turtle-tap triumph!
Silly Sally swiftly shooed seven sneezing snakes while sipping super sour strawberry soda, but suddenly stumbled on a slippery slice of slightly soggy sausage, sending her spinning spectacularly into a stack of squeaky shoes. “Sheesh!” she shouted, shaking soda off her shirt, as the sneaky snakes snickered and slithered southward, still sneezing. Meanwhile, a sharply dressed sheep named Sheldon softly sang sea shanties, somehow stealing the spotlight from Sally’s slippery, sneezy, soda-soaked sensational spectacle.
