Pip and the Loose Block
My name is Pip. I'm a mouse. I live in a cold barn, behind a loose block in the wall.
Every night the wind comes in and my tail gets cold.
On Monday I push a leaf into the hole. The wind pushes it back.
On Tuesday I push some straw into the hole. The wind pushes it back.
On Wednesday I push an old sock into the hole. The wind pushes it back.
On Thursday I push the block. The block goes backwards, out of the wall. Now the hole is very big.
On Friday the farm cat sits down in front of the hole. She's warm. She doesn't move all night.
I can't go out. I don't want to go out. My tail isn't cold any more.
