THE FLITLITS

About Introductory Book 7 / OTTO ZOOM / Supported Reading / UK English Version

A family at the land of Seldom See is based at long Pull Plot.

The busy corner of the far-off land is a lively spot.

The plot is home to family Zoom who widen, shorten, pinch and loom.

All their clothes are made to order.

The family spring to tall, or taller and shrink again to short, or shorter.

They also spread to wide, or wider.

Young Otto Zoom puffs out his chest and spreads his grin from right to left.

He likes to win games and long words, for example, 'harpsichord'.

STORY 7 finds Otto entering a Pull-In Dental Centre.

A dentist asks him with a grin, "Could you please drop down your chin?

I'll check each tooth but must begin with a small mouth, or else fall in!"

Later, Otto chalks out marks and lays out pegs at a green named Shake-a-Leg.

He greets his good friends Jake MacJake, Posy Pose and a serious snake.

They choose to play Break, Shake and Fake.

The take-charge snake roots out bluffing and mistakes.

Who rattles jangling skeleton keys and why is Otto far from pleased?
