SEPTEMBER 19: The Oysters
Reading edition
“Fellow Oysters,” said a little oyster, “it was cold last winter. What is more, it was freezing cold. And what is still more, the water was frozen over, oh so strongly, and so securely.
“I have heard that our relatives were so hard to get that they were very, very expensive. They cost too much and so very few went into people’s mouths.”
“Great, great, great,” all the oysters shouted with glee.
