Merry Learning
One evening a burglar broke into a house in Paris. He went into the living room and stole two pictures. Then he went into the kitchen, and saw some cheese. He was hungry, so he ate all the cheese. Next he saw two bottles of champagne. He was very thirsty, so he drank both bottles. Then he felt sleepy. He went upstairs for a rest, but he was tired and fell asleep. When he woke up the next morning, there were four policemen around the bed.
