    Once upon a time, there was a fox living in his den.
    He was hungry, so he left off in the hunt for food.
    When he trotted off, he saw a rabbit munching a carrot.
    He ran to catch the rabbit.
    He sniffed and said. You are yummy, but not as yummy as the gingerbreadman.
    Fox left the rabbit. Then, he saw the hen pecking breadcrumbs off the floor.
    Then, he ran to catch the hen.
    Fox was tired because he didn’t get the gingerbreadman he wanted. He preferred the gingerbreadman over the rabbit and hen.
    Then, fox smelled some yummy food in the kitchen.
    He stuck his head to the kitchen.
    He saw a black cat and a fat dog asleep on the shelf and under the chair.
    He saw the gingerbreadman. He took the off the cloth. Then, he said: “lunch at last.”

    Munching means to eat something which makes a noisy sound.

    Pecking means when an animal like a bird or hen picks up something small with its beak.

    Trotted means when you move faster than walking, but not running like when a horse trotted.

    Dwelling is a place where someone lives and is another name for someones home.

    Currant are small raisans that you can use for making different type of food like buns and cakes.
