The robber tried to
light the match on the cat's eyes. The cat gave out a mighty howl and started to spit and scratch. The robber was frightened. He ran out the back door. As he ran, the dog bit him in his leg. The rooster cried out, "Cock-a-doodle-doo." |
The donkey gave him a good kick. The robber ran back as fast as he could to the other crooks.
"Oh, dear!" he said. "I think there is a witch in the house. I was scratched, kicked, bitten and
pecked." The robbers decided that there was something very scary living in that house. "We must
never go back there," said the leader.
