As he sets out for the store, the boy's mother reminds him, "Six farm eggs, a cake for tea, a pound of pears, and don't forget the bacon."

On his way, he repeats, "Six fat legs...a cape for me...a flight of stairs...and don't forget the bacon."Or was it "six clothes pegs...a rake for leaves...a pile of chairs...and don't forget the bacon"?

Well, at least he was sure to remember the bacon!
小朋友有没有替妈妈出公差买盐或打酱油的经验呢？

这个小男孩怎么了？妈妈交代的好好的，可是不知怎么回事，不是买错东西就是把最重要的一样忘得一干二净！妈妈说：“六个鸡蛋(Six Farm Eggs)，一块蛋糕，一袋水果，还有培根肉不要忘了！”可是为什么小男孩走在路上却念着：“六条胖腿(Six Fat Legs) ，一块给我吃的蛋糕，楼梯，还有……培根？”天知道最后会买什么回来！

A jubilant story about a boy and his attempts to remember the items on his mother's shopping list. Ages 3-up.
