The Ham
Mom left a pink ham sitting in a big black pan.
The cat bandit was resting on a quilt when he
got a whiff of the ham.
What was that smell?
It was ham!
Where was the ham?
The cat bandit set off, sniffing as he went.
He went on sniffing until he spotted the ham.
But the ham was up on top.
How was he to get it down?
That was the problem.
