THE BOOKS
Reading edition
The School Room Clock saw the copy books.
He saw the marks of little feet on them.
He put his hands over his face.
The School Room Clock wanted to hide!
He tried to hide his face with his hands!
The Waste Basket said, “I will get the books.”
He said, “I will get all the copy books!”
The School Room Clock ticked away, saying,
“Rub out the marks this Monday morning, The teacher is coming, do take warning.”
