  1. Once upon a time there was a little boy. He was so small he went by nothing but Tom Thumb.He met a hare one day. So the hare said he would beat Tom a race. So Tom gave the hare odds. So Tom jumped on the hare's tail and there as soon as the hare. So there was the end of the hare and Tom Thumb.
