Example of text:-
'Once upon a time, there were three little pigs.
One day their mother said,
"You're old enough to build your own houses now.
But beware of the big bad wolf!"
Soon the three little pigs met a man carrying straw.
"Please may I have some straw?" asked the first little pig.
"Yes," replied the man.
The first little pig quickly built a house of straw.....'
and off go the other two little pigs to build their own abodes in their independently selected materials, with the latter taking a little more time than the other.
Then along comes that big bad wolf, to huff and puff.........and you know how the story goes..........
The first and second little pigs are forced to take refuge in their brother's sturdily built house.
And, at the end, as the big bad, now rather hungry, wolf angrily enters via the chimney..... with a PLOP.....straight into the cooking pot - not surprisingly, he is never seen again!
