So everybody was pleased when Sally Henny Penny sent out a printed poster to say that she was going to re - open the shop — " Henny's Opening Sale ! Grand co - operative Jumble ! Penny's penny prices ! Come buy , come try , come buy ! " The poster really was most ' ticing . There was a rush upon the opening day . The shop was crammed with customers , and there were crowds of mice upon the biscuit canisters . Sally Henny Penny gets rather flustered when she tries to count out change , and she insists on being paid cash ; but she is quite harmless . And she has laid in a remarkable assortment of bargains . There is something to please everybody . THE END THE STORY OF MISS MOPPET THIS is a Pussy called Miss Moppet , she thinks she has heard a mouse ! THIS is the Mouse peeping out behind the cupboard , and making fun of Miss Moppet . He is not afraid of a kitten . THIS is Miss Moppet jumping just too late ; she misses the Mouse and hits her own head . SHE thinks it is a very hard cupboard ! THE Mouse watches Miss Moppet from the top of the cupboard . MISS MOPPET ties up her head in a duster , and sits before the fire . THE Mouse thinks she is looking very ill . He comes sliding down the bell - pull . MISS MOPPET looks worse and worse . The Mouse comes a little nearer . MISS MOPPET holds her poor head in her paws , and looks at him through a hole in the duster . The Mouse comes VERY close . AND then all of a sudden — Miss Moppet jumps upon the Mouse ! AND because the Mouse has teased Miss Moppet — Miss Moppet thinks she will tease the Mouse ; which is not at all nice of Miss Moppet . SHE ties him up in the duster , and tosses it about like a ball . BUT she forgot about that hole in the duster ; and when she untied it — there was no Mouse ! HE has wriggled out and run away ; and he is dancing a jig on the top of the cupboard ! THE END THE TALE OF MR . JEREMY FISHER FOR STEPHANIE FROM COUSIN B . ONCE upon a time there was a frog called Mr . Jeremy Fisher ; he lived in a little damp house amongst the buttercups at the edge of a pond . THE water was all slippy - sloppy in the larder and in the back passage . But Mr . Jeremy liked getting his feet wet ; nobody ever scolded him , and he never caught a cold ! HE was quite pleased when he looked out and saw large drops of rain , splashing in the pond — " I WILL get some worms and go fishing and catch a dish of minnows for my dinner , " said Mr . Jeremy Fisher . " If I catch more than five fish , I will invite my friends Mr . Alderman Ptolemy Tortoise and Sir Isaac Newton . The Alderman , however , eats salad . " MR . JEREMY put on a macintosh , and a pair of shiny goloshes ; he took his rod and basket , and set off with enormous hops to the place where he kept his boat .
