The Cat In The Hat for Halloween

Then he got up on top with a tip of his hat.
"I call this game FUN-IN-A-BOX," said the cat.
"In this box are two things I will show to you now.
You will like these two things," said the cat with a bow.
"I will pick up the hook. You will see something new.
Two things. And I call them Thing One and Thing Two."


"These Things will not bite you. They want to have fun."
Then, out of box came Thing Two and Thing One!
And they ran to us fast. They said, "How do you do?
Would you like to shake hands with Think One and Thing Two?"

Then those Things ran about with big bumps, jumps and kicks.
And with hops and big thumps and all kinds of bad tricks.
And I said, "I do not like the way that they play!
If Mother could see this, oh, what would she say!"

They are too cute! I am glad you got some good pictures. I hope all the blue came out of their hair. It has been great seeing you and spending some time with all of you.
