The following is a story of Petey, the snake. To get the full meaning of
the story we suggest you read out loud.
Petey was a snake, only so big. Petey lived in a pit with his mother. One
day Petey was hissing in the pit when his mother said, "Petey, don't hiss in
the pit, go outside the pit to hiss." So Petey went outside of the pit to
hiss.
Petey was hissing all around when he finally leaned over and hissed in the
pit. Petey's mother heard Petey hissing in the pit and said, "Petey, if you
must hiss in a pit, go over to Mrs. Pott's pit and hiss in her pit.
Petey went over to Mrs. Pott's pit to hiss in her pit, but Mrs. Pott was not
at home so he hissed in her pit anyway. While Petey was hissing in Mrs.
Pott's pit Mrs. Pott came home and found Petey hissing in her pit. She said,
"Petey, if you must hiss in a pit, don't hiss in my pit; go to your own pit
and hiss."
This made Petey very sad, and he cried all the way home. When Petey got
home, his mother saw him crying and said, "Petey, what's the matter?" Petey
said, "I went over to Mrs. Pott's to hiss in her pit but Mrs. Pott was not
at home, so I hissed in her pit anyway. Mrs. Pott came home and found me
hissing in her pit and said, "Petey, if you must hiss in a pit go to your
own pit and hiss, don't hiss in my pit."
This made Petey's mother very angry and she said, "Why that mean old Lady!
I knew Mrs. Pott when she didn't have a pit to hiss in"
