LONG JOHN SILVER

TODDLER

Daddy, I want to go on my slide,

Please, can we go and play outside?

FATHER

Well, it’s raining quite hard, so we can’t really do that,

What about getting your eye patch, parrot, pirate hat?

So, then I can read you my favourite story,

Long John Silver is full of adventure and glory.
