This is Harold.

He’s a lover of food.

He says there’s nothing he hasn’t chewed.

Baked, smoked, grilled or fried...

Wait! There is something he hasn’t tried!

“I know what I have not munched on yet:

B

the entire foody alphabet!�

So hungry Harold ate for tea, the alphabet from A-Z.

First an apple,

crunchy and red.

Then some beans on toasted bread.

Cookies and doughnuts were next on his list...

Eggy soldiers

he couldn’t resist!

Fish fingers followed, eight he did eat!

Then gingerbread men for something sweet.

Hamburgers and hotdogs he did adore!

Harold wasn’t full though...

He still

wanted more!

Next he ate ice cream served in a bowl.

Followed by a jelly, which Harold ate whole!

A kiwi with skin

furry and brown,

and a glass

of lemonade

to wash it all down.

He shoved some marshmellows into his gob.

He was getting so round he looked like a blob!

For 'N’ he ate noodles

straight out of the box.

Then some soup with tail of ox.

Delicious pancakes

with syrup so sticky, and a quiche,

which Harold found icky!

Raspberries and strawberries

baked into a tart,

and something

called uglifruit that made

Harold fart!

Next he ate venison: his favourite meat,

and a tower of waffles he deserved a treat.

He had no food for

X

so he ate yoghurt times two.

He was ready to pop,

but it just

wouldn’t do!

He said,

“I’ll have just one slice of this zebra cake...”

But one slice was too much

for his stomach to take!

It gurgled

and groaned and let out a ROAR!

So Harold ran for the bathroom door...

But unfortunately

he couldn’t fit anymore,

so Harold was sick all over the floor.

“Perhaps eating

the alphabet wasn’t my best plan.

I’ll try to be healthy now.

I’ll try the best I can.”

With this

Harold’s stomach

was on the mend.

He lived happily

ever after, that’s it,

THE END.

Hungry Harold loves food and believes he has tried it all, but when he realises he has not eaten the alphabet he has to give it a go.
