Miss Sunflower is crying.
“A thief just stole my pumpkin pie!
Now what do I have for dinner?” she sobs.
“Don’t cry Miss Sunflower. We will find
your pumpkin pie,” said Officer Zig.
“We will catch that crook!” said Officer Zag.
“Look! There he goes!”
“Catch that crook!” said
Officer Zag.
“I’m too fast and you’re too slow.
You will never catch the pumpkin pie thief!”
cried the crook.
They chased him up the hill…but the crook was too quick.
“I’m too fast and you’re too slow.
You will never catch the pumpkin pie thief!”
“I’m too fast and you’re too
slow. You will never catch
the pumpkin pie thief!”
They chased him down
the riverbank but the crook
rolled away.
They chased him under the bridge
but the crook swam away.
“I’m too fast and
you’re too slow. You
will never catch the
pumpkin pie thief!”
They chased him over the fires…but the crook jumped too high.
“I’m too fast and you’re too
slow. You will never catch the
pumpkin pie thief!”
They chased him around the tree
but they could not catch the crook.
“I’m too fast and you’re too slow.
You will never catch the pumpkin pie thief!”
Officer Zig and Officer Zag did not give up.
They ran and ran and ran until…
SPLAT! They chased him right into
a wall!
“Hurray! We caught the crook!”
said the cops.
Officer Zig and Officer Zag returned the
pumpkin pie to Miss Sunflower.
“Thank you very much,”
said Miss Sunflower.
Dinner time!
